  2. Root canal treatment - Wikipedia

    On the other hand, the root canal filling material may be extruded from the apex leading to other complications. [citation needed] The X-ray in the right margin shows two adjacent teeth that had received bad root canal therapy. The root canal filling material (3, 4, and 10) does not extend to the end of the tooth roots (5, 6 and 11).

  3. Root canal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Root_canal

    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.

  4. Biofilling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biofilling

    Actinomyces, a bacterium that is found inside the canal, has the ability to degrade trans-1,4-polyisoprene. The internal root canal system in-vivo is anaerobic but even without the presence of bacteria, the C=O polymer chain will be lysed slowly into OH and C=O over time. Particularly during the presence of a periapical lesion, the penetration ...

  5. Formocresol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Formocresol

    It is used for vital pulpotomy of primary teeth and as a temporary intracanal medicament during root canal therapy. Buckley's solution is a 20% form of formocresol, diluted with glycerine and distilled water. [2] The use of formocresol in pediatric dentistry has been deprecated, and ferric sulfate suggested as a substitute. [3]

  6. Periradicular surgery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periradicular_surgery

    The filling promotes cementum and bone formation, [21] [22] blocks bacteria, and is a barrier for the root canal. Inflammation of the periradicular site due to bacteria could cause recovery to deteriorate and induce periradicular infection. [22] Careful evaluation of root canal filling material is required to optimise healing after the procedure.

  7. Barbed broach - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barbed_broach

    A barbed broach is a hand-operated endodontic tool used to remove the pulp tissue during root canal treatments. They have been in widespread use at least since the early 1900s, and their introduction allowed dentists to remove tissue from much smaller root canals than before.

  8. Healing of periapical lesions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Healing_of_periapical_lesions

    Ostensibly, then, for regeneration to occur, the root canal system must have been decontaminated and further access to microbial invasion must be prohibited. Regeneration of the bone has been demonstrated to occur, on average, at a rate of 3.2 mm² per month, and studies suggest that 71% of lesions have achieved complete resolution one year ...

  9. Dental anesthesia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_anesthesia

    In root canal treatment, for example, more Lidocaine is required than for a simple filling. [ 2 ] Other local anesthetic agents in current use include articaine (also called septocaine or Ubistesin), bupivacaine (a long-acting anesthetic), prilocaine (also called Citanest), and mepivacaine (also called Carbocaine or Polocaine).
