#18 RCT With this kind of gingiva sinking the whole tooth an indirect post-endo would have been a nightmare (atleast for me) in this case. Orifice directed access done and the carious lesion prepared and restored separately along with the DO in the 19, the cuspal integrity is intact so just the direct composite post […]
Somehow i find these premolars canals that splits in the middle 3rd harder to locate and shape than the ones that split in apical. Heat treated NiTi’s come in really handy in these cases.
– In this case i opted for an access to the centre (place where the orifice projects) and restored the distal half separately – The usual shaping and cleaning protocol and also restored the mesial slot in the 47 through the space i got with a open distal margin in 46. 47 is symptomatic as […]
– Pt age 13yrs old then – IOPA revealed a taurodontic anatomy and a PA lesion in relation to the palatal root. – On access the floor was completely calcified and appeared bleached and ovoid. Managed to localize all canals which were in eccentric locations – I noticed that I had pushed GP outside the […]
– Sub-gingival caries distal to an isolated #13 – Gingivectomy and isolation done – Caries driven access through the distal (missing #12 and #14 made this approach possible) – No post-endodontic restoration planned as the patient is a partial denture user (maxillary an mandibular) an I don’t think she will generate enough functional load for […]
#14 RCT Pre-op: Deep sub-gingival distal margin. Gingivectomy followed by margin elevation and isolation. The usual shaping protocol and cleaning protocol. Obturated using WVC. Preserving the dentin bridge that extends buccal to lingual during post-endo prep might be a important consideration in this case.
Clinical Scenario and treatment done DO caries with a deep sub-gingival margin Resorbed apex – Distal root (H/O Orthodontic treatment) Surprisingly had a good tug-back all the way in the distal canals Shaped to 4% 30 Distal and 4% 25 in the mesials Obturation technique – WVC
#30 Pulpitis. Caries involving the ML cusp. Caries driven access planned Mb located in the middle of the floor and the dentinal map suggested a ML orifice present almost on the lingual wall of the tooth unlike the usual. I had to stick to what I could see rather than go to the usual co-ordinates to […]
#30 deep distal margin. Done in 2 visits. Gingivectomy and Pre-endo done. All canals shaped to 4% 25 obturated using WVC.
