In-depth knowledge of the root canal system is a major prerequisite for successful endodontic treatment.1 The major aim of endodontic treatment is the eradication of infection and prevention of reinfection in canal. However endodontic treatment may fail because of incomplete knowledge about the anatomical variation of root canals. Most of the times the canal remains untreated because of the inability of the dentist to recognize its presence. For good prognosis of the root canal treatment, proper exploration, complete debridement, biomechanical preparation, and filling of root canal system must be done. Therefore, a dentist must be familiar with all the various possible canal configurations.2 Many times, failure of endodontic treatment may occur because the morphological variation of the tooth unfavourably affects the treatment. Pulpal inflammation can occur as a result of many factors like dental caries or trauma which causes tissue necrosis. Periapical tissue eradication develops in response to microbial accumulation and infiltration of their by-products in the periradicular tissues and activates host's immune reaction.3 The following case report presents the non-surgical management of mandibular central and lateral incisors, with each having two separate canals which join together to form a single canal just before exiting the apical foramen. Before starting root canal treatment, a careful radiographic examination should be done to detect the morphological variations in root canal anatomy. This paper describes two clinical cases of mandibular incisors with or without periapical lesion having two canals.

The C-shape configuration in molars it’s an anatomical variation that difficult the diagnosis and treatment. The aim of this study was to report a case of C-shape endodontic configuration in mandibular second molar. The radiographic examination of one patient revealed the extent of caries in the mesial aspect of mandibular second molar, without the presence of periapical lesion and was clinically noted the C-shape configuration of the root canal, extending from the mesiobuccal to the distal canal. Endodontic therapy was performed and after the root canal obturation with gutta-percha cones and endodontic cement the tooth was restored. We conclude that the anatomical condition in C-shape, although it brings many difficulties for the endodontic treatment, does not preclude the tooth rehabilitation.

Successful outcome of endodontic treatment depends on the identification of all root canals which in turn guarantee complete extirpation of pulp tissue, proper chemo-mechanical cleaning and shaping and three dimensional obturation of the root canal system with an inert filling material. However endodontic treatment can fail for many reasons, such as diagnostic errors, persistence of the infection in the root canal system, errors in debridement and shaping of the root canal systems, instrument fractures, poor restorations and extra roots or canals if not detected are the reasons for failure. Undetected extra roots or root canals have been considered as a major reason for failure of root canal treatment. Many of the challenges faced during root canal treatment may be directly attributed to an inadequate understanding of the canal morphology of teeth. A broad knowledge of both the external and internal anatomy of teeth is of great importance for adequate endodontic treatment. We present a case report of 2 roots in mandibular lateral incisor.

The objectives of root canal treatment are to prevent the apical parodontitis, to heal the acute or cronic apical periodontits and to maintain the results, keeping the teeth on the arch in a functional stage. Thus, accuratelly elimination of soft and hard tissues (cleaning and shaping of the root canal system), disinfection and complete, homogeneous and tridimensional filling of the root canal system are very important to successful endodontic treatment. Modern concepts in endodontic treatment rely on technological progress and therefore many cases are successfully fulfilled, but the practitioner may be put in front of procedural erorrs both during and after endodontic treatment. Apical blockage, ledging, zipping, stripping, perforations in the floor of the pulp canal chamber or root canals perforations are the most common errors, but in many clinical situations they can be prevented and even surpassed once happened.

Sterilization of root canal space is foremost for the success of the endodontic treatment which is usually carried out with intracanal irrigants and medicaments. Triple antibiotic paste (metronidazole, ciprofloxacin, and minocycline) is used to achieve sterilization and healing of periradicular area. In the present case report, the triple antibiotic paste was used for non-surgical management of periapical lesion for 3 weeks. After 3 weeks, the tooth became asymptomatic that was then obturated. Hence, it is confirmed that conventional root canal treatment, along with intracanal medicaments (triple antibiotic paste), can non-surgically manage the periapical lesions and further promotes healing.

This case report described the endodontic treatment and decompression of an extensive lesion in the anterior region of the mandible, detected during clinical and radiographic examination, in a patient with a complaint of slight tenderness to palpation in the area of mandibular right lateral incisor and canine. These teeth had been accessed without proper clinical evaluation, and their pulp tissues were exposed. The periodontal tissues were healthy, with no signs of inflammation or fistula. On radiographic examination, a radiolucent lesion with well-defined borders was seen extending from the distal root of mandibular left second premolar to the mesial root of mandibular right second premolar. Central and lateral mandibular left incisors were unresponsive to thermal pulp testing and exhibited coronal discoloration, consistent with a diagnosis of pulp necrosis. Due to persistent discharge from the root canal system during endodontic procedures despite application of intracanal medicament (calcium hydroxide paste), the decision was made to biopsy and decompress the lesion and conclude endodontic treatment. Histopathologic examination revealed a periapical granuloma. After endodontic treatment of the involved teeth, at 4-year clinical and radiographic follow-up, the affected region was almost completely repaired.

The root canal system presents a complex anatomy. It is a myriad complex of canals and their various portals of exits. The maxillary first molar is an important tooth in the arch and is of prime functional importance. In maximum cases, the maxillary first molar shows presence of three canals viz. mesiobuccal, distobuccal and palatal canal. At times, there may be presence of four or five canals. These extra canals may be present as a second mesiobuccal canal, a second distobuccal canal or an extra canal in the palatal root. These canals are often missed by the clinician. Their identification has benefitted from technological innovations like microscopes and ultrasonics that have enabled easy identification of the orifices of these canals. This case report presents a case of root canal treatment of maxillary first molar with four canals.

ABSTRACT Aim C-shaped canal system is a seldom-found root canal anatomy which displays a challenge in all stages of endodontic treatment. According to the literature, this type of canal morphology is not a common finding in the mandibular first molar teeth. Background This case report presents endodontic management of a mandibular first molar with a C-shaped canal system. Case report Root canal system was cleaned and shaped by nickel-titanium (NiTi) rotary instruments combined with selfadjusting file (SAF). Obturation was performed using warm, vertical condensation combined with the injection of warm gutta-percha. Follow-up examination 12 months later showed that the tooth was asymptomatic. The radiological findings presented no signs of periapical pathology. Clinical significance The clinician must be aware of the occurence and complexity of C-shaped canals in mandibular first molar teeth to perform a successful root canal treatment. The supplementary use of SAF after application of rotary instruments in C-shaped root canals might be a promising approach in endodontic treatment of this type of canal morphology.

Gigi premolar maksila merupakan gigi yang mendapat tekanan pengunyahan besar dan rentan mengalami fraktur terutama setelah dilakukan perawatan saluran akar (PSA). Gigi yang telah dilakukan PSA akan menjadi sangat rapuh dan rentan fraktur karena telah kehilangan kelembaban dan banyak jaringan kerasnya. Gigi premolar juga mendapat tekanan pengunyahan yang besar karena bentuk dan letaknya yang lebih dekat dengan aksis horizontal transversal. Penggunaan parallel self-threading dowel dan mahkota penuh porselen fusi metal akan mendistribusikan beban pengunyahan keseluruh bagian akar dan meningkatkan ketahanannya terhadap fraktur. Tujuan laporan kasus ini adalah untuk menunjukkan keberhasilan penggunaan parallel self-threading dowel dengan mahkota penuh porselen fusi metal sebagai restorasi pasca PSA pada gigi premolar kedua maksila nekrosis pulpa dengan lesi periapikal. Pasien wanita berusia 30 tahun dirujuk untuk PSA pada gigi premolar kedua kanan maksila nekrosis pulpa dengan lesi periapikal. Pasien merasakan sakit saat gigi digunakan untuk makan. Perkusi dan palpasi positif namun mobilitas normal. Pemeriksaan radiografik menunjukkan gambaran radiopak yang telah mengenai ruang pulpa dan radiolusensi pada periapikal gigi. PSA dan restorasi mahkota penuh dilakukan dengan parallel self-threading dowel. Parallel self-threading dowel dan mahkota penuh PFM sebagai restorasi akhir menunjukkan keberhasilan perawatan pada gigi premolar kedua maksila pasca PSA. ABSTRACT: Porcelain Fused to Metal Crown with Parallel Self-Threading Dowel Post Root Canal Treatment On Maxillary Premolar. Maxillary premolar teeth have great chewing forces and prone to fracture, especially after root canal treatment (RCT). Teeth that have RCT done will be very brittle and fracture prone because it has lost moisture and lost most of its hard tissue. Premolars also receive great chewing forces because its shape and location are closer to the horizontal transverse axis. The use of parallel self-threading dowel and full porcelain fused to metal crowns will distribute the load of mastication throughout the roots and improve resistance to fracture. The aim of this case report was to demonstrate the success of the use of parallel self-threading dowel with full porcelain fused to metal crown restoration aftera RCT on maxillary second premolar with pulp necrosis and periapical lesion. A 30-year-old female patient was referred for RCT on the maxillary right second premolar with pulp necrosis and periapical lesion. Patient felt pain when the tooth was used to eat. There was tenderness to percussion and palpation but the mobility was normal. A radiographic examination showed radiopaque image that entered pulp chamber and periapical radiolucency on tooth. RCT and full crown restoration with parallel self-threading dowel had been performed. Parallel self-threading dowel and full porcelain fused to metal crown as the final restoration after RCT on the maxillary second premolar showed a successful treatment outcome.

Success in root canal treatment is achieved after thorough cleaning, shaping, and obturation of the root canal system. This clinical case describes conventional root canal treatment of an unusual mandibular first molar with six root canals. The prognosis for endodontic treatment in teeth with abnormal morphology is unfavorable if the clinician fails to recognize extra root canals.
