First upper molar root canal

This case was referred to me for a root canal trea This case was referred to me for a root canal treatment of a lower left central incisor (31).

The tooth was showing a chronic apical periodontitis, likely due to a previous trauma. As a result, a calcific metamorphosis, or canal calcification, was present.

The complexity of the case lay in the calcification of the canal in a very narrow root, making the treatment challenging.

Since half of the canal was calcified, the freehand approach carried significant risks. Even a slight deviation in the trajectory during the access could lead to a perforation. Therefore, a guided endodontic access was planned.

To create the guide, I used information from a CBCT (3D x-ray) and an intraoral scan (3D modeling of the teeth). Using specialized 3D modeling software, a digital model of the mouth was recreated. For that purpose, I visited @charismatic.dl lab and together we designed the guide.

With the aid of the guide, the root canal treatment was successfully completed, and the canal calcification was effectively managed.

This highly complex case was successfully resolved thanks to meticulous digital planning and the use of guided technology.

With the right experience, meticulous planning, and the appropriate tools, complex cases can often be successfully managed. I always recommend seeking the expertise of a specialist with experience in handling such situations to prevent further damage and achieve the best possible outcome. While individual results may vary, the success rate is highly predictable in the vast majority of cases. Let me help you save your tooth.

This case was referred to me for the retreatment o This case was referred to me for the retreatment of a lower incisor (#41). The tooth presented with a big chronic apical periodontitis, which seemed to be affecting the teeth next to it as well. 

In this kind of situation, it is very important to do a meticulous diagnosis to identify the source of the problem so that we do not treat the other teeth mistakenly without reason.

The large size of the lesion is not a synonym for tooth extraction, which unfortunately we see quite often in the decision-making processes. In the absence of bacteria, the bone heals, and we can save the tooth. 

The retreatment was carried out over two sessions with a three-week calcium hydroxide dressing between them.

The use of advanced technologies, materials, and techniques is crucial for improving treatment success rates. With the right experience, planning, and tools, complex cases are usually successful. I always recommend seeking out a specialist with experience to address these kinds of situations and prevent further damage. While results may vary from patient to patient, they are highly predictable in the vast majority of cases.

This case was referred to me for the retreatment o This case was referred to me for the retreatment of a lower first molar (#46). The tooth presented with chronic apical periodontitis and a fractured instrument in the MB canal. For all my retreatments, the use of CBCT is an essential part of the planning process as it allows me to accurately measure the canals. In this case, it also helped to locate and assess the broken instrument, enabling me to approach the case with accurate information.

The retreatment was carried out over two sessions. The first session was dedicated solely to removing the fractured instrument, which was quite difficult. It took me two hours of work to retrieve the file.

This case was referred to me for a retreatment of This case was referred to me for a retreatment of the upper left second premolar (25). The tooth presented with chronic lateral periodontitis as a result of a previous perforation. The retreatment was performed, and the perforation was repaired using bioceramics. After six months, there was complete resolution of the chronic lateral periodontitis, allowing us to preserve the tooth for many more years.

The use of advanced technologies, materials, and techniques is crucial for improving treatment success rates. When colleagues trust me by referring their patients, it means a lot to me, and for that, I am always grateful.

This case was referred to me for a #rerootcanaltre This case was referred to me for a #rerootcanaltreatment of an upper left second premolar (25).

The tooth was presenting a lateral periodontitis which can indicate either a tooth fracture or an untreated lateral canal. 

For these kind of cases I always take a CBCT (3D x-ray) to ensure proper treatment planing and to obtain more information about the possible cause of the problem. I like to be very honest with all my patients and I always explain them the challenges of every case and the possible outcomes. 

The treatment was successful and, although a lateral canal wasn’t visible on the x-ray, it was likely the cause of the problem. A proper disinfection protocol and the use of advanced technologies and techniques are crucial for improving treatment success rates.

With the right experience, planning and tools complex cases are usually successful. I always recommend seeking out a specialist with experience to fix this kind of situations and to prevent further damage. The result may vary from patient to patient but it’s very predictable in the vast majority of cases. Let me save your tooth.

This patient was referred to me for a #rerootcanal This patient was referred to me for a #rerootcanaltreatment of an upper left second molar (27).

This tooth was presenting a broken instrument on the palatal canal and due to the location of the tooth (the last one) and the location of the broken file, on the apex, made the treatment an important challenge. 

For these kind of cases I always take a CBCT to plan the treatment properly. I like to be very honest with all my patients and I always explain them the challenges of every case and the possible outcomes. 

With the right experience, planning and tools these complex cases are usually successful. My advice is always to find the right specialist with experience to fix this kind of situations and to avoid further damage. The result may vary from patient to patient but it’s very predictable in the vast majority of cases. Let me save your tooth.

This patient was referred to me for a #rerootcanal This patient was referred to me for a #rerootcanaltreatment of an upper left second premolar (15). The tooth was presenting a couple of metal post and a silver point obturation. Within the always difficulty of re-root canal treatments, removal of metal posts and silver points are quite predictable with the proper skills. This tooth was already treated 2 times in the past so preserve as much natural tooth structure was very important. Every time that the tooth is root canal treated or re-treated adds another layer of difficulty for the next treatment making very challenging sometimes to fix what it was done 20 or 30 years ago. My advice is always to find the right specialist with experience to fix this kind of situations to avoid further damage. 

The obturation was done using bioceramic sealer and the treatment was completed in one session. The result may vary from patient to patient but it’s very predictable in the vast majority of cases. Let me save your tooth.

This patient was referred to me for a #rootcanaltr This patient was referred to me for a #rootcanaltreament of an upper right second molar (17) under the suspicion that the tooth could be presenting a perforation which was confirmed after the inspection with the surgical microscope. My advice for those who face this problem or accident is not to panic as perforations can be repaired with the use of the right technique.

This perforation was repaired using a bioceramic material and the treatment was completed in a second session. The result may vary from patient to patient but it’s very predictable in the vast majority of cases. Let me save your tooth.

This patient was referred to me for a re-treatment This patient was referred to me for a re-treatment of an upper left molar (27). This tooth had a broken Gates Glidden on the apical third of the MB root. With the use of the ultrasonic, the surgical microscope and a lot of patience I managed to retrieve the broken instrument. This tooth was treated 2 times before me and I hope that I could extent its life for many more years. Extraction should be only advised when the tooth can’t be saved. The result may vary from patient to patient but it’s very predictable in the vast majority of cases. Let me save your tooth.

Double curvatures or “S” shape type canals are Double curvatures or “S” shape type canals are always a challenge due the the high risk of file separation. One of the most important things is to warn the patient about this possibility before the treatment and for that a proper assessment and diagnosis of the situation is essential. 

In this case the double curvature of the mesial canals of the second lower molar was successfully shaped. The secret is to use the right instruments and to increase the size and the taper of the files step by step, without big jumps and recapitulating and irrigating all the time making sure there is a nice glide path. The result may vary from patient to patient but it’s very predictable in the vast majority of cases.
