Dens Invaginatus

Dens invaginatus is a developmental anomaly that results in an enamel-lined cavity intruding into the crown or root before the mineralization phase. This report presents regenerative endodontic treatment of a necrotic immature tooth with Oehler’s type III dens invaginatus of a nine-year-old female patient. A diagnosis of dens invaginatus (Oehler’s type III) and a large periapical lesion was established with the aid of cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). In the presented case contrary to the classic revascularization protocol, mechanical instrumentation was performed which apparently did not interfere with the regeneration process. After mechanical instrumentation of the invaginated canal by manual K-files, the invaginated canal space was disinfected by triple antibiotic paste followed by blood clot induction from the periapical tissues and the placement of mineral trioxide aggregate. At one-year follow-up, the tooth remained clinically asymptomatic. Radiographic examination revealed complete healing of the periapical lesion. At the 20-month follow-up, the radiographic examination also showed that the open apex was closed and the walls of the root canal were thickened.

Radiographic Followup

Management of a tooth with open apex is a challenge to the dental practitioners. Evaluation of the periapical healing is required in such cases by radiographic techniques. The objective of this paper was to assess the healing of a periapical lesion in a non-vital tooth with open apex treated with mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) obturation using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT). The endodontic treatment of a fractured non-vital discolored maxillary left lateral incisor with an open apex was done with MTA obturation. The clinical and radiographic followup done regularly showed that the tooth was clinically asymptomatic and that the size of the periapical lesion observed by intraoral periapical (IOPA) radiographs and CBCT was decreased remarkably after two years. CBCT and IOPA radiographs were found to be useful radiographic tools to assess the healing of a large periapical lesion in a non-vital tooth with open apex managed by MTA obturation.

Background: Internal anatomy of maxillary first premolars is particularly multifaceted on account of the variation in number of roots and canal configuration. Maxillary first premolars with 3 roots are called as small molar or “radiculous” because of their similar anatomy to the maxillary first molars. The most demanding step in endodontic treatment is identification and proper access to pulp canals of certain teeth with atypical canal configurations. Methods of identification of such premolars can be by various aides.Case Presentation: The present case describes the application of Cone Beam-Computed Tomography in the diagnosis of extra root with extra canal in a three rooted maxillary right first premolar.Conclusions: Proper knowledge of the anatomical variations is a must for an endodontist to make a treatment successful. Utilizing the latest technology along with the traditional concepts can surely rule out the inaccuracy in the treatment involved in such cases.

Determining Factors

One of the determining factors for the success of endodontic therapy is understanding the morphological anatomy of the tooth structure and its variants in relation to its template anatomy. The internal anatomy of maxillary first premolars is particularly complex due to their variation in number of roots and canal configuration. However, the bilateral presence of three roots in a maxillary first premolar is of rare occurrence. This case report describes the unusual anatomy bilaterally detected in maxillary first premolars using Cone-Beam Computed Tomography.

Dehiscence Defect

Introduction: to determine the frequency of fenestration and dehiscence bone defects present in maxillary teeth with apical periodontitis, mainly in teeth with endodontic treatment, as they are frequently cause of nonspecific symptoms after treatment. Methods: 1201 Maxillary Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) exams were analyzed and 803 teeth with apical periodontitis were selected. Results: of the teeth with apical periodontitis, 142 had a fenestration defect (18%) of which 105 teeth (74%) were endodontically treated. The highest frequency was observed in premolars, with no statistical differences between groups. Dehiscence defect was found in 139 teeth (17%) out of which 90 (65%) were endodontically treated. The highest frequency was observed in molars, with statistical differences in relation to other tooth types (p< 0.001). Conclusion: an important number of teeth with apical periodontitis present dehiscence or fenestration bone defects, especially in teeth with root canal treatment.
