Pulpal Sequelae Following Dental Trauma
Traumatic injuries to the teeth are a major cause of pulpal and periapical pathosis, particularly in the pediatric population. Epidemiological studies estimate that up to 30% of children experience some form of dental trauma before adulthood (Andreasen & Andreasen, 2007). Such injuries may lead to various pulpal sequelae, ranging from reversible inflammation to irreversible necrosis […]
Investigations in Dentistry
The practice of dentistry extends beyond routine restorative care and oral hygiene maintenance; it also involves a keen ability to diagnose, localize, and evaluate pathological conditions of the oral cavity and surrounding structures. Accurate diagnosis is the cornerstone of successful treatment, and investigations form an essential part of this diagnostic process. Among these investigations, sensibility […]
Cleaning and Shaping of Root Canals
Root canal treatment is a fundamental dental procedure aimed at preserving teeth compromised by infection or pulp necrosis. The success of such therapy largely hinges on two interdependent steps, cleaning (the removal of infected tissues and microbes) and shaping (preparing the canal for effective disinfection and filling). These steps establish the foundation for three-dimensional obturation […]
Complex Root Canal Anatomy
Root canal treatment (RCT) is often conceived as a routine dental procedure; yet, in complex cases, it becomes among the most technically demanding therapies in dentistry. These cases include teeth with unusual, anatomically intricate canal systems, teeth that require retreatment, surgical intervention, regenerative approaches for immature teeth, or management of procedural complications.This article explores each […]
Causes of Tooth Abscess
A tooth abscess is a painful dental condition that arises from a bacterial infection within the tooth or surrounding tissues. Left untreated, it can lead to serious complications, including tooth loss, spread of infection, and systemic health issues. Understanding the causes of tooth abscesses is essential for prevention, early detection, and effective treatment. This article […]
