To compare the patients’ analgesic intake after pulpotomy and root canal treatment to time span of both endodontic procedures. A total thirty-four permanent mandibular molars with signs symptoms irreversible pulpitis were randomly assigned a group (n=17) (RCT) (n=17). Endodontic procedure duration was recorded for groups. Analgesic each patient up fourth day post treatment. In management mature...

This paper presents a case series of furcation involved teeth complicated with endodontic involvement which were treated with periodontal, endodontic and restorative procedures using different bone regenerative materials like; (a) Calcium phosphosilicate bone substitute having bioactive glass 69% mixed with glycerin 19% and poly-ethylene 12% dispensed in a putty form; (b) hydroxyapatite 70% and...

Surgical emphysema is well known and many case reports have been published on this. Many authors have reported this as a complication post dentoalveolar treatment. Diffusion of air into facial planes and periorbital area during endodontic procedures has been rarely reported. The use of three way air syringe and forceful irrigation of root canal can lead to surgical emphysema of subcutaneous tis...

The aim of this study was to determine different causes of endodontic treatment failure in patients who approached the Department of Operative Dentistry, Khyber College of Dentistry, Peshawar, for retreatment. This study was carried out from December 2009 to February 2010 and included seventy five patients of both genders with different post endodontic treatment complaints. Clinical and radiogr...

Post treatment periapical periodontitis is usually caused by residual microbes, due to poorly treated root canals and microleakage. Our clinical case proved that orthograde, single-visit endodontic re-treatment is the first choice for the clinician. Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) images detect the presence and the real extension of the periapical periodontitis and the outcome of the endod...

Glass fiber-reinforced endodontic posts are considered to have favorable mechanical properties for the reconstruction of endodontically treated teeth. The aim of the present investigation was to evaluate the survival of two tapered and one parallel-sided glass fiber-reinforced endodontic post systems in teeth with different stages of hard tissue loss and to identify risk factors for restoration...

When a method of intracoronal reinforcement is selected, many factors must be weighed. The hazards include (1) the induced stresses and the risk of fracture during placement of the dowel, (2) the probability of root perforation during post space preparation, (3) the wedging action of tapered dowels, and (4) the incidence of fracture with self-threading pins in devitalized teeth. The amount of t...

Abstract Background The concept of instrumentation beyond the apical foramen by small flexible file to prevent blockage is patency. However, this procedure might endow postoperative pain, thus maintain patency or not matter dilemma. Hence, primary objective study was compare pain between and non-patency groups secondary evaluate influence number visits, vitality teeth, group teeth preoperative ...

Endodontic treatment approaches aim to achieve proper and prevention of apical periodontitis enhance the oral health status prognosis affected teeth. However, many complications can develop secondary endodontic treatment. The management post-treatment might be challenging clinicians, is usually lower than that primary periodontitis. Therefore, identifying potential etiology intervening against ...
