introduction: pulpectomy is a conservative treatment plan for primary necrotic teeth and zinc oxide eugenol is still a good choice as root canal filling material but long term studies on poor prognosis molars are limited and almost contradictory. the purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical and radiographical success rate of pulpectomy of necrotic primary molars using zoe as the root c...

Objective: to compare the quality of obturation, instrumentation time and post-operative pain after pulpectomy in primary molars using manual K-files, Kedo-S Square rotary file systems. Material Methods: a double blinded randomized control trial was conducted 45 children, who were indicated for any one mandibular molars. The canal preparation done either hand files, or files based on groups ass...

This article reviews the use of nickel-titanium rotary files for root canal instrumentation in primary teeth. The pulpectomy technique is described and the advantages and disadvantages of using rotary files are discussed. Specific recommendations for the selection of materials and devices are made.

educational teaching of the diagnosis of resorbed root for pulpectomy in deciduous teeth radiography has always been a big challenge in pediatric dentistry. the purpose of the study was to propose a new practical methodology to improve the quality of learning in students of dentistry.extracted deciduous teeth were molded in the transparent epoxy resin as their real position in the jawbone. then...

INTRODUCTION The loss of dental pulp may weaken teeth, rendering them susceptible to reinfection, fracture, and subsequent tooth loss. Therefore, regeneration of pulp is considered an ideal treatment to preserve teeth. The aim of this study was to explore the capacity of dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) to regenerate dental pulp in canine mature permanent teeth. M...

PULPECTOMY – Treatment Considerations Anesthesia It is essential to eliminate any sensation from the tooth being treated prior to endodontic therapy. While it is true that some necrotic teeth can be treated without anesthesia, placement of rubber dam clamps and instrumentation beyond the apex (patency filing) normally make the use of local anesthetic desirable. This is typically achieved throug...

This case report presents a clinical and radiographic follow-up (38 months) of pulpectomy treatment performed on maxillary primary anterior teeth using Vitapex. Vitapex was resorbed extraradicularly and intraradicularly without apparent ill effect, and proved to be clinically and radiographically successful. The present case report illustrates that even if the paste resorbs within the canals, t...
