Endodontic Management of Separated Instrument in Mandibular First Molar- A Case Report

Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2017, Vol 16, Issue 4

Abstract

With the increased practice of rotary endodontics in recent years, separated rotary nickel - titanium (NiTi) files in root canals is the most commonly reported mishap, causing lot of stress and anxiety among clinicians and patients. In some cases, removal of a fractured instrument is impossible or undesirable. Although integration of modern techniques into endodontic practice has improved the clinician's ability to retrieve separated instrument but removal may not always be possible due to many factors like poor access, visibility, location of the instrument and the amount of dentin to be removed. While keeping these factors in mind, bypassing technique is more effective and conservative. The aim of this paper is to present a clinical case in which a separated instrument was bypassed inside the curvature of distobuccal root canal of mandibular first molar during endodontic treatment.
