Assessing Pulp Vitality

We all know that majority of us don’t like much doing RCT, however, it is very much a necessary evil to do so we can save the tooth of our patients.

The Usual Suspects In Root Canal Failures

The Usual Suspects In Root Canal Failures

The truth is root canal therapy could have been really an easy procedure if only we could actually see the canal directly through our eyes when we are working on it. But, that isn’t the case unless we extract the tooth, do the root canal and implant it back again. Thus, through the years, dental inventors and manufacturers tried to develop various equipment such as microscope and Endodontic materials with various systems that supposedly can make our lives simpler when we are doing RCT to our patients. Ironically, however, with all the revolutionary inventions and gadgets we still fail in certain clinical cases that we do RCT. So, DMD cEnter would like to discuss the usual suspects of why we still fail in our Endodontic treatments in the hope that we can do our best to be trap on these pitfalls.
