BBB (Baffled Beyond Belief)
73yof in today for obvious reasons. I just can't figure this out…let alone why anyone would be teaching it…

Patient presents for experimentation. 😀 Scott helped me out with this case and sent detailed instructions including a key section on "rookie mistakes." Scott is updating the document and hopefully he will attach it to this thread. Initially we were just going to punt on the bicuspid, but it was about 30 seconds to get the […]

Upcoming decoronation
I agree Rick. Someone posted a case on the AAE Connection and Gary asked Sir Winston for his comments (which are on TDO-U): https://tdouniversity.tdo4endo.com/c23/ They are below: Winston Chee via perfendo.org 12:35 PM (11 minutes ago) to Gary Gary for this patient a periodical film would help – the issue is NOT endo but the […]
Death by ProTaper (R) and Round Bur averted.

File clinicials show a SSW 17/V.04 (white band) at length (20mm), am SSW 30/V.06 (blue band) (final shape) and a ProTaper (R) F1 (yellow band) that doesn't even fit in the completed […]
Pac Mac help? Trudeau? Anyone?
Hi Steve, Here are a couple of single-cone BC sealer cases from today, and last week. Both are SSW 17/V.04, single-cone (#20 cone…very thin and flimsy). No downpack, no backfill. CBCT post-op on the one from today demonstrating some apical anatomy if that tickles your fancy. The second one from last week was a one-step.
Monday’s green gnar
I saw this nice lady last summer Nec/CAP #3 (primarily screening finding prior to crown–very lightly symptomatic), as well as a symptomatic #14 (not shown) post recent filling (the pulp had just died on.#14). We did multi-visit endo on both teeth with #3 becoming completely comfortable right away, and #14 taking some time to settle […]
How to avoid fractured roots
In today post recent symptoms on this tooth I retreated in 2010. Short-term followups from 2010, 2011, 2012 and then broken today. If you're not seeing your own failing cases, someone else is. Don't trust any endodontist that can't show you his own failing cases. On Tue, Jul 31, 2018 at 3:18 PM, Gary B. […]
