Journal Title: Saudi Journal of Oral and Dental Research - Year 2017, Vol 2, Issue 7
Abstract
Abstract: Over the course of time, dentistry has evolved from a primitive form of dental care to modern day use of preventive treatment modalities. In today’s modern dentistry with the availability of various new obturating materials, it was interesting to accidently diagnose the root canal being obturated with stainless steel wire. Here, we report a unique case where the root canal of a 10 year male patient was obturated with stainless steel wire following which the patient developed persistent pain and infection. Keywords: Foreign body, trauma, root canal, stainless steel wire, endodontic management
