    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Root_canal_treatment

    Root canal procedure: unhealthy or injured tooth, subsequent creation of an access cavity with a dental handpiece, cleaning and shaping the root canals with an endodontic file, and restoration with gutta-percha filling and a crown. Removing infected pulp during a root canal procedure. Root canal treatment (also known as endodontic therapy ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Healing_of_periapical_lesions

    Healing of periapical lesions. Apical periodontitis is typically the body's defense response to the threat of microbial invasion from the root canal. [1] Primary among the members of the host defense mechanism is the polymorphonuclear leukocyte, otherwise known as the neutrophil. The task of the neutrophil is to locate and destroy microbes that ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dens_evaginatus

    Specialty. Dentistry. Dens evaginatus is a rare odontogenic developmental anomaly that is found in teeth where the outer surface appears to form an extra bump or cusp. Premolars are more likely to be affected than any other tooth. [3] It could occur unilaterally or bilaterally. [1]

  5. Regenerative endodontics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regenerative_endodontics

    Regenerative endodontics is the extension of root canal therapy. Conventional root canal therapy cleans and fills the pulp chamber with biologically inert material after destruction of the pulp due to dental caries, congenital deformity or trauma. Regenerative endodontics instead seeks to replace live tissue in the pulp chamber.

  6. Periapical periodontitis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periapical_periodontitis

    Periapical periodontitis may develop into a periapical abscess, where a collection of pus forms at the end of the root, the consequence of spread of infection from the tooth pulp (odontogenic infection), or into a periapical cyst, where an epithelial lined, fluid-filled structure forms. Etymologically, the name refers to inflammation (Latin ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Root_canal

    55674. Anatomical terminology. [edit on Wikidata] A root canal is the naturally occurring anatomic space within the root of a tooth. It consists of the pulp chamber (within the coronal part of the tooth), the main canal (s), and more intricate anatomical branches that may connect the root canals to each other or to the surface of the root.

  8. Pulpotomy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulpotomy

    Visual of tooth decay. Pulpotomy is a minimally invasive procedure performed in children on a primary tooth with extensive caries but without evidence of root pathology. [1] The minimally invasive, endodontic techniques of vital pulp therapy (VPT) are based on improved understanding of the capacity of pulp tissues to heal and regenerate plus the availability of advanced endodontic materials.

  9. Periradicular surgery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periradicular_surgery

    Periradicular surgery. In the dental specialty of endodontics, periradicular surgery is surgery to the external root surface. Examples of periradicular surgery include apicoectomy, root resection, repair of root perforation or resorption defects, removal of broken fragments of the tooth or a filling material, and exploratory surgery to look for ...
