This report describes the 24-month clinical and radiographic outcome of an unintentionally extruded mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) apical plug. A 9 year old boy presented with a previously traumatized, immature central incisor; associated with a large periradicular lesion. During placement of MTA in the treatment of wide open apex, the material was inadvertently extruded into the periapical region upon a sudden movement of the child. No intervention was made, except for obturation of the remaining root canal two weeks later. The radiographic follow up at 12 and 24 months confirmed successful management through the non surgical approach, as evidenced by advanced healing of the periapical lesion and regeneration of the periradicular tissue in the absence of clinical symptoms.

Abstract Aim and objective: The aim of the present study was to evaluate clinical and radiographic outcome of MTA as a pulpotomy agent in permanent teeth as an alternative to conventional root canal treatment. Materials and Methods: Ten permanent teeth with symptoms of irreversible pulpitis with vital pulp were selected for the study. MTAPulpotomy procedure was done in all the cases using standard protocol. Teeth were evaluated for various clinical and radiographic parameters at 3, 6, 9 and 12 months of follow up. Results: None of the patients reported any kind of clinical discomfort or radiographic abnormality during the follow up period of 3, 6, 9 and 12 months. All the teeth responded positive on electric pulp test at all successive follow ups. Conclusions: MTA Pulpotomy may be used as an alternative treatment modality to root canal treatment in permanent teeth with irreversible pulpitis, if future research continues to show promising results.

Inflammatory external root resorption is one of the major complications after traumatic dental injury. In this case report, we describe treatment of a maxillary central incisor affected by severe, perforating external root resorption. An 18-year-old patient presented with a previously traumatized, root-filled maxillary central incisor associated with pain and sinus tract. Radiographic examination revealed periradicular lesion involving pathologic resorption of the apical region of the root and lateral root surface both mesially and distally. After removal of the root canal filling, the tooth was disinfected with intracanal triple antibiotic paste for 2 weeks. The antibiotic dressing was then removed, and the entire root canal was filled with mineral trioxide aggregate. The endodontic access cavity was restored with composite resin. After 18 months, significant osseous healing of the periradicular region and lateral periodontium had occurred with arrest of external root resorption, and no clinical symptoms were apparent.

Single visit apexification using mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) is a new boon in effective management of nonvital tooth with an open apex which has steadily gained popularity with clinicians; also it shortens the treatment period and improves patient compliance. Importance of this approach lies in expedient cleaning and shaping of the root canal system, followed by its apical seal with MTA. There are several case reports available describing the use of MTA as an apexification agent in incisors and premolar, but presented cases are the unique case reports demonstrating successful apexification procedure using MTA in young permanent mandibular molars. After eight-month follow-up, teeth were without any abnormal clinical symptoms; rather there were radiographic resolution of the periapical lesion and induction of root end closure with new hard tissue formation over MTA.

ABSTRACTThis case report presents the management of a case of rarely seen perforating internal replacement resorption using calcium hydroxide (CH) medication and mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) root canal obturation. A maxillary central incisor of a 20-year-old female was showing a sinus track on the mucosa. Radiographically, an irregularly shaped and perforating internal resorption area was seen at the middle third of the root canal. Appearances of the bone-like fuzzy material were observed inside the resorption site. The apical part of the canal was obliterated. Following 3 months of CH medication, the canal and the perforation were obturated with MTA filling. At 6-year follow-up, the tooth was clinically asymptomatic and showing radiographical appearances of the hard tissue repair, resembling a barrier and periodontal membrane healing around MTA at the perforation site.

Pulpal and periradicular pathosis are the result of microbial, mechanical, or chemical invasion. Microorganisms are the main irritants of pulpal and periapical tissues. The goal of the obturation is to obtain a fluid-tight seal of the root canal system from its coronal aspect through its apical extent to preserve from the irritants.. Root apices have morphological irregularities in teeth with periapical lesions. Therefore, it is more difficult to produce hermetically apical stop with conventional guttapercha obturation techniques. This case report describes the treatment and six years follow-up of the teeth with large periapical lesion using MTA as apical filling material. (Eur J Dent 2010;4:468- 474)

<p><strong><em>Background :</em></strong><em> There are some factors can cause endodontic failure such as inadequate in cleaning or shaping step, non hermetic obturation, or poor restoration, which can cause bacteria multiply. <strong>Purpose :</strong> To report the management of endodontic failure with nonsurgical treatment. <strong>Case :</strong> 46-year-old woman came to Airlangga Dental Hospital Conservative Dentistry Department to treat her upper right tooth which show symptomatic pain in the last 2 weeks. The tooth has been treated and crowned with porcelain fused to metal about 10 years ago. Clinical examination show the presence of fistula on premolar buccal gingiva, react to percussion.  Radiographic examination show not hermetic obturation in one root canal and radiolucency in the periapical area. The diagnosis for maxillary first premolar is previously treated tooth with chronic periapical abscess.. <strong>Treatment :</strong> Crown and post was removed from the tooth, and endodontic retreatment was done. Follow up 6 months after the retreatment show no reaction to percussion, and radiographic examination show no enlargement periapical lesion. <strong>Conclusion :</strong> Nonsurgical endodontic retreatment always become the first choice to resolve endodontic failure for previously treated tooth.</em></p><p><strong><em>Keywords :</em></strong><em> endodontic failure, maxillary first premolar, nonsurgical endodontic retreatment</em></p><p><strong><em>Correspondence:</em></strong><em> Yongki Hadinata W., drg.

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.

Summary Background: Extrusion of root canal sealers may cause damage to the surrounding anatomic structures. Clinical symptoms like pain, swelling and paresthesia or anesthesia may be present. The purpose of this presentation is to describe two cases of root canal sealer penetration into periapical tissues. A different treatment management was followed in each case. Case reports: A 55 year-old man underwent root canal retreatment of the right mandibular first molar tooth due to a periapical lesion. Postoperative periapical radiographs revealed the presence of root canal sealer (AH26) beyond the apex in the distal root in proximity to the mandibular canal. The patient reported pain for the next 7 days. Radiographic examination after 1 year showed complete healing of the periapical area and a small absorption of the root canal sealer. A 42 year-old woman was referred complained of swelling and pain in the area of the right maxillary first incisor. Radiographic examination showed extrusion of root canal sealer in the periapical area associated with a periapical lesion. Surgical intervention was decided upon, which included removal of the sealer, apicoectomy of the tooth and retrograde filling with MTA. After 1 year, complete healing of the area was observed. Conclusion: In conclusion, cases of root canal sealer extrusion, surgical treatment should be decided on only in association with clinical symptoms or with radiographic evidence of increasing periapical lesion.

ABSTRACTThis case report describes the repositioning of a laterally luxated primary central incisor with occlusal interference, using a composite inclined plane. The patient was a 4-year-old girl who applied to our clinic three days after the injury. Because of the time delay between injury and presentation, it was not possible to reposition the tooth with pressure. Following a root-canal treatment, an inclined plane was prepared on the lower primary incisors, using composite resin. The tooth was repositioned in two weeks, and the inclined plane was then removed. After 1 year of follow-up, the treatment was found to be successful, both clinically and radiographically. The use of a composite inclined plane, accompanied by careful follow-up, is an effective alternative to extraction for laterally luxated primary incisors with occlusal interference.
