Damage of pulp tissue usually begins in the coronal pulp. Its mistreatment or its lack of on time detection determines the progressive inclusion of the whole endodontic space in its evolution, opening the way of its expansion in the surrounding tissues of the tooth, and on the marginal apical tissue. Aim. The goal of this study was to highlight that the primary endodontic lesions with secondary...

Aim: This clinical case report demonstrates the successful management of a complex endodontic-periodontal iatrogenic lesion following a critical evaluation and decision-making process with interdisciplinary treatment strategies. Background: Defective dental restorations can affect the periodontal and endodontic health of the teeth. Case report: An endodontic-periodontal lesion that resulted fro...

There are numerous examples reported in the literature that cite and document many disabling complications to the alveolar bone, neurovascular anatomy and maxillary sinus following overextension of root canal filling materials. Neural complications as a consequences of endodontic obturation as well as other server outcomes to overfill are a serious problem. These injuries require a thoughful st...

Background: During root canal treatment procedures, unexpected accidents may be confronted affecting long-term prognosis just as in any other dental treatment. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the knowledge of dental students of accidents and errors during endodontic treatment in Medical University of Babol. Materials and Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 52 senior dental student...

Central Giant Cell Granulomas (CGCGs) may manifest as radiolucencies anywhere in the mandible or maxilla. In rare cases, it can appear as a localized periradicular area and mimic an endodontic lesion. This case report presents an uncommon location of CGCG which was not accurately diagnosed nor timely treated. Periodic follow ups of periapical radiolucencies after RCT are necessary. Dentists sho...

introduction: the successful practice of dentistry, including endodontics, relies on a wide spectrum of dental research. the quantity and quality of research evidence in endodontics have seldom been evaluated. the aim of this study was to evaluate the level of evidence in current leading endodontic journals. materials and methods: all the articles published in 2000, 2006 and 2010 in two major e...

Objective: The objective of this study is to evaluate longitudinal studies effectiveness of treatment of periodontal-endodontic lesions and the influence of periodontal or endodontic procedures through a

The purpose of this study was to make a brief diagnosis of the evolution of the Journal of Applied Oral Science (JAOS) between 2005 and 2007, by reviewing quantitative and qualitative aspects of the articles published in the JAOS within this period. All articles published in the JAOS in the time span established for this survey were analyzed retrospectively and a discussion was undertaken on th...
