Dens Invaginatus

Endodontic treatment of two maxillaryincisors with dens invaginatus is reported. Invaginated teeth present technical difficulties with respect to their management because of complicated canal morphology. This case was treated by conventional root canal treatment. The signs and symptoms ceased after the treatment. At follow up examination after 18 and 20 month the teeth were asymptomatic and radiographically showed sound periodontal and periapical tissue.

Dens Invaginatus

Dens invaginatus is a rare malformation of the teeth resulting from the invagination of the tooth crown before biological mineralization occurs. In most cases, the thin or incomplete enamel lining of the invagination cannot prevent the entry of bacteria into the pulp, which leads to pulp necrosis with an eventual periapical inflammatory response. The treatment options include preventive sealing or filling of the invagination,root canal treatment, endodontic apical surgery and extraction. The root canal treatment of such teeth is often complicated because of their anatomical complexity. This case describes a successful non-surgical endodontic treatment of a maxillary lateral incisor with type 2 dens invaginatus with a large periradicular lesion. At follow-up examinations after 6 and 12-months, the tooth was asymptomatic and the healed lesion was evident radiographically.

Abstract Background: To investigate the changes of Schneider membrane thickness by CBCT pre and post root canal treatment, retreatment and pulp capping procedures. Methods: This retrospective study was conducted on CBCT scans of a patient population of Guy’s Hospital NHS Foundation Trust, London. Three groups of patients were studied: Group 1 consisted of patients referred for primary endodontic treatment; Group 2 for endodontic retreatment; Group 3 for indirect pulp capping procedures (serving as a control group). Follow up scans were carried out 1 year after treatment. Measurements were carried out on CBCT scans and data were analysed statistically by Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test. Linear regression was used to assess predictive parameters for membrane thickness. Results: A statistically significant reduction of the Schneider membrane thickness was observed one year after endodontic treatment and retreatment (P<0.05) but no significant reduction was observed after pulp capping procedures. Linear regression showed that age and gender were significant predictors influencing the Schneider membrane thickness. Conclusions: Within the limitations of this retrospective study, following root canal treatment and re-treatment a Schneiderian membrane thickness reduction occurred at 1-year follow-up. The removal of odontogenic infection following endodontic treatment may help reducing the thickness of the Schneider membrane. Trial registration: Ethical approval and registration were granted by the NRES London Bridge and Dulwich Research Ethics Committee. TRN NCT03055975

Dens in dente é uma anormalidade descrita como o dobramento do órgão do esmalte na papila dentária durante o estágio de formação. Acomete principalmente os incisivos laterais superiores, sendo sua frequência de ocorrência de 0,04% a 10%. O objetivo deste trabalho é apresentar as diferentes intervenções clínicas descritas na literatura com foco na necessidade de tratamento endodôntico em casos de dens in dente. Foi realizada uma busca nas bases de dados PubMed, Biblioteca Virtual da Saúde (BVS) e Google Acadêmico utilizando as palavras-chave: “dens in dente”, “dens invaginatus”, “dental malformation”, “endodontic treatment”, “root canal treatment”, “endodontic therapy”, “endodontics” combinadas com os operadores booleanos “AND” e “OR”. O tratamento do dens in dente inclui o selamento de esmalte, tratamento endodôntico, tratamento cirúrgico combinado, reimplante intencional e extração. A escolha do tratamento depende de sua classificação, que pode ser dividido em tipo I, II ou III. O uso da tomografia tem sido indicado para diagnóstico e planejamento. A limpeza e a modelagem nesses casos se mostram de difícil complexidade. O uso de insertos ultrassônicos podem ser utilizados para potencializar os efeitos da substância química auxiliar na limpeza do canal. A técnica de obturação termoplastificada se mostra satisfatória por proporcionar um melhor preenchimento na obturação do canal radicular. Conclui-se que para a abordagem dos casos de Dens in dente, o profissional necessita ter conhecimento sobre diagnóstico, anatomia interna, interpretação radiográfica e tomográfica, e conhecer as possibilidades de intervenção clínica de acordo com a sua classificação.

Endodontic Retreatment

Clinical evaluation for a successful root canal treatment is assessed by various criteria, which are clinical, histopathological, and radiographical criteria. Therefore, failure of endodontic treatment can be described as a recurrence of clinical symptoms, with the presence of a periapical radiolucency or both. Failure factors in the treatment are frequently related to persistent infection. Conventional endodontic retreatment is indicated for symptomatic previously treated teeth or asymptomatic teeth with inadequately done initial endodontic treatment to avoid potential recurrence. Endodontic retreatment in elderly patients is a great challenge because the clinician has to reassure both the physical and psychological factors of the patient to determine whether to save a tooth or perform an extraction. Some difficulties may also be found in root canal retreatment, including finding the root canal hole or root canal blockage found in parts of the root canal that have not been repaired in the previous treatment. A 60-year-old female patient came with the chief complaint of recurrent pain, and subjective discomfort in the maxillary left central incisor. The patient had anxiety about the dental treatment. The tooth had a history of root canal treatment four months ago. The clinical examination showed a positive response to the percussion test. The radiographical analysis showed a root canal underfilling, 2-3 mm short of length from the apex. The tooth was diagnosed as a previously treated tooth with symptomatic apical periodontitis. Endodontic retreatment was performed based on the patient’s clinical condition and consent, followed by composite restoration. The clinical and radiographic re-evaluation after four weeks of follow-up revealed an excellent condition. This favorable result showed that a conventional retreatment plan of persistent pain on the previously treated tooth in an elderly patient led to progressive healing, and a longer follow-up was advised.

Background: Root canal Therapy is one of the procedures for the management of nonvital tooth with periapical lesion. The principle of this therapy is the complete sterilization of the total pulp canal space thereby healing of the periradicular lesion. Objectives: This experimental study assessed the clinical and radiological outcome of root canal treatment for nonsurgical management of nonvital teeth with periapical lesion. Materials and Methods: A total number of 40 infected teeth with periapical lesion were treated by conventional root canal treatment. Irritants from the root canal system was removed by mechanical instrumentation( Crown down Technique), chemical irrigation with NaOCL and by using Calcium Hydroxide as intracanal medicaments and fluid tight obturation both apically and coronally resulting repairs of inflamed periradicular tissues. The protocol for follow up examination will be 3, 6 and 12 months post operatively. At the time of follow up examination a standard follow up chart will be maintained. Results: Among 40 cases 32 cases could be treated as acceptable as their responses were good both clinically and radiologically and 5 patients came back with some complications among them 3 cases were uncertain and 2 cases were unacceptable. Conclusion: It was concluded that conventional root canal treatment reduced clinical signs and symptoms successfully in teeth with periapical lesion and radiologically. TAJ 2020; 33(1): 25-30

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. It typically affects permanent maxillary lateral incisors, central incisors, and premolars. This paper describes the root canal treatment of Oehlers’ type II dens invaginatus in maxillary left lateral incisors. A 16-year-old boy presented to the Faculty of Dentistry, University of Kocaeli, to receive his dental treatments. During the caries removal, the pulp was exposed then anendodontic treatment was initiated. Two canals, one of which represented the invagination, were instrumented, irrigated, and then obturated with a lateral condensation technique.

In this study, 120 teeth having periradicular pathosis were treated with single visit root canal treatment and then obturated with either calcium hydroxide containing sealer or mineral trioxide aggregate based sealer. The healing of periradicular pathosis was examined at 3, 6, and 12 months by clinical and radiological evaluation. Collected data were analyzed with standard statistical methods by using SPSS version- 20. The results showed that at 3 and 6 months, the differences between calcium hydroxide containing sealer or mineral trioxide aggregate based sealer were not statistically significant. However, the healing capability of periapical radiolucency at 12 months between two groups was statistically significant (P=0.03). The final outcome of the clinical and radiological investigation showed successful results of 96.6% and 98.1% in calcium hydroxide and mineral trioxide aggregate group, respectively. In conclusion, both calcium hydroxide and mineral trioxide aggregate based sealers are almost equally effective in single visit root canal therapy for the management of periradicular pathosis.
