This article aims at providing an insight to the clinical modifications required for the endodontic management of severely dilacerated mandibular third molar. A 35-year-old patient was referred for the root canal treatment of the mandibular left third molar. An intraoral periapical radiograph revealed a severe curvature in both the canals. A wide trapezoidal access was prepared following the use of intermediate-sized files for apical preparation. Owing to increased flexibility, Hero Shaper NITI files were used for the biomechanical preparation and single cone obturation was carried out. Third molars owing to their most posterior location-limited access coupled with a severe curvature pose utmost clinical challenges require meticulous skill, advanced technology, and patience to achieve success.

Endodontic retreatment is an attempt to reachieve a healthy periapical after it was previously been carried out an inadequate or reinfected endodontic retreatment that has been filled due to the leakage of apical and coronal. One stage in this retreatment is an uptake of obturasi material using hedstrom file (H-file). The solvent material used in this endodontic retreatment is xylol. Case report. A 22-year-old male patient came to the Clinic of Conservative Dentistry Dental Hospital Prof. Soedomo, Faculty of Dentistry, Gadjah Mada University (UGM) wanted to treat his mandibular second right premolar (45) that has been painful since two months ago. The tooth had root canal treatment one year ago. The pain suddenly appears and disappears as soon as the patient consumes painkillers. Dental preoperative (periapical) radiograph tooth 45 showed a picture of gutta percha root canals and radiolucent images at the tip of the root of the tooth. Diagnosis of tooth 45 is non-vital tooth after root canal treatment accompanied by apical, symptomatic periodontitis. The operator performed a root canal treatment by dismantling the restoration on the occlusal part of tooth 45 and taking gutta percha using a hedstrom file followed by treatment of the root canal, crown lengthening, installation of individual formable fiber post and porcelain fused to metal crown. Conclusion. Retreatment of root canal treatment with non-surgical methods still can be conducted effectively and obtain good results with the final treatment results in smaller lesions in the apical portion of tooth 45.

Abstract Background Understanding the anatomical morphology of the root canal is key for successful root canal treatment. The aims of this case presentation are to report a unique case of root canal treatment involving five root canals in the mandibular first premolar and to highlight the importance of variation in root canals of mandibular first premolars in clinical practice. Case presentation A 25-year-old male with intermittent pain in relation to the lower right posterior teeth over 3 weeks was diagnosed with symptomatic pulpitis in tooth #44. Four root canals were found, including mesiobuccal, distobuccal-1, distobuccal-2, and distolingual roots, and the Mtwo rotary system was used for root canal preparation. The four root canals were filled after 2 weeks, when a fifth canal was found, located in the buccal cavity. The fifth canal was confirmed to be the mesiolingual root canal by cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) and was found to be curved. After completion of the root canal filling, CBCT was performed, and a three-dimensional root canal image was reconstructed. After 1 week of observation, the tooth was repaired using composite resin filling. Conclusions This is the first case presentation of a fifth canal of the mandibular first premolar and advances our understanding of variations in the anatomy of the mandibular first premolar. This case report provides a reference for the treatment of mandibular first premolars.

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 calcified root canals cause many problems during endodontic treatment due to difficulty in canal orifice location, negotiation, preparation as well as consideration of operating time. Most serious problem may arise during any phase of root canal treatment procedure even taking a lot of precaution. Partial or total obliteration of pulpal chamber or root canal space is the most common consequences of a tooth which is exposed to traumatic injury. The most common presentation of such a tooth is complete or partial loss of the pulp space radiographically and discoloration particularly yellow discoloration of the clinical crown. Around 7–27% of teeth having the feature of partial canal calcification shows features of pulp necrosis accompanied by radiographic signs of chronic periapical periodontitis. Very low numbers of teeth( 2-3%) may present with total obliteration of pulp chamber and the root canal system . Teeth with such features is challenging to provide a successful root canal treatment; . In this case report a 21 years old female patient attended with complaints of discoloration , mild spontaneous pain , and several episodes of gingival swelling with history of trauma four years back in her both maxillary central incisors. The case was evaluated clinico radiographically and the diagnosis was a case of calcification both maxillary central incisors. Root canal treatment to manage the calcified canals following conventional technique was planned . After treatment patient was free from subjective and objective signs and symptoms and she was advised for periodic follow-up Update Dent. Coll. j: 2020; 10 (2): 21-25
