Step-by-Step Orthograde Endodontic Retreatment

Root canal retreatment can be very complicated to perform. There are several factors to consider before addressing the tooth: the chamber opening type, the inlet localization, as well as the previously performed root canal filling technique. Moreover, a determining factor is the presence of a fractured instrument inside a root canal, which further complicates therapy. In this video, our Tootor Calogero Bugea shows us how to properly address this type of issue, performing a surgical procedure on element 3.6 (US 19), which exhibits a broken instrument fragment within the apical third of the distal canal.
