Endodontic dentistry: Double “C” Shape distal canal VS Carl Zeiss OPMI dental operative microscope


Case study number: 331737

 

Heated gutta percha was most useful to obtain that so sought after 3D obturation in this mandibular second molar.

En esta radiografia podemos observar la dificultad para tener un acceso adecuado al canal radicular en su tercio distal en forma ¨S¨ ; La gutapercha caliente fue mas util para obtener el resultado que se deseaba, los canales radiculares han sidos sellados tanto hacia apical como hacia sus extensiones laterales, como una obturacion 3D.

‘S’ shape canal with a Vertucci’s type V configuration in distal root

An intricate root canal procedure, case study number: 49736

A Vertucci type V pulp space configuration can be described as follow: One canal leaves the pulp chamber and divides short of the apex into two separate distinct canals with distinct foramina (1-2). According to Vertucci’s study in 1984 on a 100 mandibular molars sample, the type V configuration in distal root, occured only in 8% of the teeth examined. In the apical third of distal root, each part of the split as been individually cleaned, shaped and filled with gutta Percha and Pulp Canal Sealer. 

Please note the bayonet shaped root canal in distal root.

‘S’ Shape canals in second lower right molar (Case 434347)

Radiografia preoperatoria en el que se observan las raices de un segundo molar inferior (mandibular) dilaceradas hacia distal, haciendonos poner mas atencion al tratamiento a realizar debido a la curvatura en "S", realizando el procedimiento nos damos cuenta que los dos canales radiculares presentaban curvatura en "S",los cuales se alcanzan a observar claramente despues de haber obturado dichos canales radiculares.

Extreme endodontic procedure. Case number: 334

A Vertucci type V pulp space configuration can be described as follow: One canal leaves the pulp chamber and divides short of the apex into two separate distinct canals with distinct foramina (1-2). According to Vertucci’s study in 1984 on a 100 mandibular molars sample, the type V configuration in distal root, occured only in 8% of the teeth examined. In the apical third of distal root, each part of the split as been individually cleaned, shaped and filled with gutta Percha and Pulp Canal Sealer. 

This is a type V Vertucci's root canal configuration on a SECOND maxillary molar palatal root canal. An extremely complexe root canal configuration to clean shape and fill. The root canal is already very difficult to perform due to tooth position in the arch. Patient was having an A.A.A. at this time, making this experience a challenging one for both of us… Treatment took a total of three appointments because of the apical delta and because of calcified second mesiovestibular canal to treat.

Esta es una configuracion de canal radicular tipo V Vertucci's;de un conducto radicular palatino en un segundo molar maxilar(superior). Una configuracion radicular extremadamente compleja para limpiarla y llenarla. El tratamiento radicular(endodoncia) es  muy dificil llevar a cabo debido a la posicion del diente en el arco. El paciente estaba teniendo un A.A.A. al mismo tiempo, haciendo de esta experiencia un reto para ambos… El tratamiento tomo un total de tres citas por el delta apical encontrado en el canal palatino y por la calcificacion del segundo canal mesiovestibular tratado.
