AIM: The aim of this study is to present severe root resorption following obturation of the primary molar with zinc oxide eugenol (ZOE) at different follow-up periods. CASE REPORT: We present the case of a 6-year-old boy with decayed lower primary molars. Pulpectomy for pulpally involved primary molars was performed. ZOE has been used as root canal filling material and follow-up was done at 3, 6, and 9 months. CONCLUSION: External root resorption was detected at 3 months and the resorptive process continued till 9 months. This finding emphasizes the need for alternative filling material with less irritating properties.

Background: Iatrogenic complications such as accidental perforation of the root or the floor of the pulp chamber may occur. Case Report: Patient was referred for root canal retreatment of the mandibular left second molar with periapical lesion evidenced through radiographic examination. During post removal, iatrogenic perforation occurred at the mesial face of the distal root. After clinical localization of the perforation and bleeding control, MTA was applied. In a second appointment, the root canal filling was removed and the chemical-surgical retreatment of the canals was performed, followed by the obturation with gutta-percha and sealer. Patient returned after three days reporting no pain. After 6 months, 3, 7 and 10 years of follow-up. Conclusion: Absence of pain, normal periodontal probing and lack of radiolucent area at the region of perforation and the periapices were detected, which evidenced the successful repair of the tooth.

Besides the risk of filling material extrusion throughout the apex, a satisfactory apical seal can be difficult to achieve in canals with open apices or iatrogenic enlargements of the apical constriction. These situations pose a challenge to root canal filling. This paper describes the root canal filling of a maxillary right canine with an overinstrumented apex, complete loss of the apical stop, extensive canal transportation and apical periodontitis. A 5 mm calcium hydroxide apical plug was placed before root canal filling. The plug was made by soaking paper points with saline, dipping the points in calcium hydroxide powder and then applying it to the apex several times, until a consistent apical plug was obtained. The canal was then irrigated with saline in order to remove any residual calcium hydroxide from the root canal walls, dried with paper points and obturated with an inverted #80 gutta-percha cone and zinc oxide-eugenol based sealer by the lateral condensation technique. An 8-year radiographic follow-up showed formation of mineralized tissue sealing the apical foramen, apical remodeling and no signs of apical periodontitis.

Pendahuluan: Pulpitis ireversibel simtomatik ditandai dengan hipersensitivitas terhadap stimulus termal, yang menyebabkan nyeri spontan atau rasa sakit yang bertahan 30 detik atau lebih setelah stimulus dihilangkan, nyeri yang parah, persisten, dan sulit dilokalisir, dapat menjalar ke telinga, pelipis, mata atau leher. Kondisi pulpa yang terinflamasi tidak dapat kembali pulih dan perawatan saluran akar merupakan pilihan perawatan. Tujuan laporan kasus ini membahas mengenai perawatan saluran akar dengan pulpitis ireversibel simtomatik untuk menghentikan inflamasi pulpa dan mempertahan gigi. Laporan kasus: Pasien laki-laki berusia 35 tahun datang ke klinik dengan keluhan gigi belakang kanan bawah terasa sakit berdenyut sejak 1 minggu yang lalu. Gigi tersebut pernah dilakukan penambalan sementara 4 bulan sebelumnya dan tambalan tersebut patah serta nyeri spontan. Pemeriksaan radiologis gigi 46 menunjukkan gambaran radiolusen pada bagian mahkota hingga mencapai tanduk pulpa, terdapat 2 akar, dengan akar mesial dilaserasi ke arah distal dan akar distal lurus, serta saluran akar yang menghilang pada 2/3 dan 1/3 saluran akar distal dan mesial, tidak terdapat pelebaran membran periodontal, lamina dura normal dan tidak terdapat kelainan periapikal. Gigi 46 dilakukan anestesi lokal, dilanjutkan pembukaan akses dan ekstirpasi pulpa, kemudian preparasi saluran akar menggunakan nikel titanium rotary ProTaper Next® (Maillefer, Switzerland) dengan teknik crown down dan pengisian saluran akar. Restorasi follow up overlay komposit indirek pada gigi 46. Simpulan: Pulpitis ireversibel simtomatik pada gigi molar dengan akar dilaserasi terbukti dapat ditangani dengan perawatan saluran akar yang adekuat, ditandai dengan hilangnya keluhan pada pasien dalam kasus ini.Kata kunci: Pulpitis ireversibel simtomatik, perawatan saluran akar, teknik crown down. ABSTRACTIntroduction: Symptomatic irreversible pulpitis is characterised by hypersensitivity to the thermal stimuli, which causes spontaneous pain that lasts 30 seconds or more after the stimulus removed, severe, persistent and difficult to localise, can radiate to the ears, temples, eyes, or neck. The inflamed pulp does not recover; thus, root canal treatment is the treatment option. This case report was aimed to discuss the root canal treatment for symptomatic irreversible pulpitis to stop the pulp inflammation and preserve the teeth. Case report: A 35-year-old male patient came to the clinic with complaints of pulsating pain in the mandibular right molar since one week prior. The tooth had a temporary filling four months earlier, and the filling was fractured, and the pain was spontaneous. Radiological examination of tooth 46 showed radiolucent images on the crown until the pulp horn, there were found two roots, with mesial roots dilated distally and straight distal roots, and root canals that disappeared in the two-third and one-third of the distal and mesial root canals, no dilation of the periodontal membrane, normal lamina dura and no periapical abnormalities. Tooth 46 was subjected to local anaesthesia, followed by access opening and pulp extirpation, then the root canal preparation was performed using the ProTaper Next® rotary nickel-titanium (Maillefer, Switzerland) with the crown-down technique and root canal filling. Indirect composite overlay follow-up restoration was conducted of tooth 46. Conclusion: Symptomatic irreversible pulpitis in molars with dilacerated roots proved to be manageable with adequate root canal treatment, marked by the loss of the patients’ complaints.Keywords: Symptomatic irreversible pulpitis, root canal treatment, crown-down technique.

The objective of this case report was to describe the retreatment of an immature upper right central incisor in a 20-year-old female patient after unsuccessful endodontic treatment, who had probable clinical-radiographic diagnosis of a large periapical inflammatory cyst and persistent fistula. After removing the root canal filling material, disinfection of the root canal system, and successive intracanal medication changes over 60 days, the fistula remained active. Therefore, parendodontic surgery was performed. The root canal system was obturated, the periapical cyst was surgically enucleated, and retro-obturation with mineral trioxide aggregate was performed. We used the guided tissue regeneration technique with a xenograft and resorbable membrane. On histopathological examination, we observed bacterial colonies present in the lumen of the cystic lesion. Clinical evaluation, periapical radiograph, and cone-beam tomography confirmed complete healing of the periapical area of the affected tooth. The treatment success was verified by periapical healing over a follow-up period of 21 months.

The new-style injectable root canal filling material was prepared by hydroxyl apatite (HA), calcium hydroxide (Ca (OH) 2), iodoform (CHI3) and silicon oil. The material was injected into the isolate teeth to observe the sealing effect through marinating the isolate teeth in SBF and 1% methylblue solution. The practical effect of this material through clinical trials ten patients including fourteen teeth was also evaluated. After six months follow-up, patients have no any uncomfortable. This root canal filling material has good injectability, good biocompatibility, and is very convenient to manipulate. The relevant results suggest that it has good prospect of clinical application.

AbstractThis case report describes the treatment of a tooth with necrotic pulp and open apex (maxillary left central incisor). In this conventional multiple-visit apexification with calcium hydroxide was replaced with a simple two step apical barrier techinique using MTA. The treatment involved mild debridement of the dentinal walls with K files and repeated irrigation with sodium hypochlorite solution, followed by calcium hydroxide dressing for 1 week and lastly creating an apical plug with MTA. The objective of the treatment was to provide an apical stop for the root canal filling material.
