DIFFICULT CASES IN ENDODONTICS – PROGNOSIS AND PROPHYLAXIS OF COMPLICATIONS
Journal Title: Journal of IMAB - Annual Proceeding (Scientific Papers) - Year 2014, Vol 20, Issue 1
Abstract
Introduction: There are cases in the endodontic treatment which are a real challenge. There are teeth with taurodontism and radix entomolaris. Patients usually lose their teeth because these anatomical features are less familiar. Purpose: The aim of this study is to investigate several cases with taurodontism and radix entomolaris. Material and methods: Two cases with taurodontism and one with radix entomolaris that are described in the following article. Careful exploration of the grooves between all orifices with magnification, use of ultrasonic irrigation; and a modified filling technique are of particular use. Results: Results are observed after several years. In performing a root canal treatment on such teeth, one should appreciate the complexity of the root canal system, canal obliteration and configuration, and the potential for additional root canal systems. Conclusions: Knowledge of the phenomenon of taurodontism and radix entomolaris will improve the medical practice of the general dental practitioner.
