Both root canal sealer-based and supplementary protocols may influence removal of filling material during endodontic retreatment. Mesial root canals of extracted mandibular molars were prepared using ...

Ideally, once the silver points are placed, a little part of the cone is kept over the root canal orifice. This is because in cases of retreatment, the silver points can be easily removed. However, if ...

Nonsurgical root canal treatment or retreatment of teeth with large apical periodontitis lesions tied to favourable outcomes suggests a study published in the Journal of Endodontics. This study ...

Smaller root canals may also make it more difficult to fully remove the infection, which could lead to eventual root canal retreatment. However, a well-trained dental staff and experienced endodontist ...

In contrast, selective root canal retreatment presents a new, targeted alternative that offers a less invasive solution. However, its promising approach faces potential obstacles due to a lack of long ...
