This document provides an overview of endodontics. It defines endodontics as the branch of dentistry concerned with the morphology, physiology, and pathology of the dental pulp and periradicular tissues. The scope of endodontics includes treating diseases of the pulp, such as pulpal inflammation and infection, through both nonsurgical and surgical root canal treatment and periradicular surgery. Pathogenesis is discussed, noting that while physical and chemical factors can induce inflammation, microbial infection is essential for progression of pulpal and periradicular disease. Routes of canal infection and the focal infection theory are also summarized.
This document discusses principles and guidelines for access cavity preparation in endodontic treatment. It outlines the basic principles established by G.V. Black, including outline form to establish complete access, convenience form to make procedures more convenient, and removal of remaining caries and defective restorations. Guidelines include centrality and concentricity of the pulp chamber floor, using the cementoenamel junction as a landmark, and symmetry of canal orifices. Specific access preparations are described for maxillary and mandibular molars and premolars. Considerations are provided for anatomical variations, extensive restorations, tilted/angled crowns, calcified canals, and teeth with minimal crowns.

The document discusses principles of endodontic cavity preparation. It emphasizes that careful cavity preparation and debridement are essential for successful root canal therapy. The outline form of the cavity must provide complete access from the margins to the apical foramen. Factors like pulp chamber size and shape, and root canal anatomy influence the cavity design. Coronal and radicular preparations are described separately but must flow together.
anatomy of pulp cavity and access opening.pptxadityabhagat62
The document describes the anatomy of the pulp cavity and access openings for various teeth. It discusses the pulp cavity, which consists of the pulp chamber and root canals. The pulp chamber roof and floor are described along with the location of canal orifices. Guidelines are provided for access cavity preparation, including removal of carious tooth structure and de-roofing the pulp chamber. The document then reviews the anatomy and access openings for various individual teeth.
Seminar on the topic of Access cavity preparation presented by Dr Aswin S, Jr Resident , Dept of Conservative dentistry and Endodontics. The fundamental aim of root canal treatment is to remove bacteria and to treat apical periodontitis using biomechanical preparation, infection control and complete obturation of the root canal system. In order to be able to effectively carry out any of the above technical stages, adequate access to the root canal system is required. As the key technical phase governing the success/ease of the subsequent treatment stages, it is of paramount importance. A poorly executed access cavity will compromise the remaining technical stages and result in an increased risk of procedural errors or failure to carry out a satisfactory treatment.
This document discusses non-vital pulp therapy for primary teeth. It begins by defining non-vital pulp therapy as a procedure to maintain an infected tooth. For primary teeth, the recommended treatments are pulpectomy or pulpotomy. Pulpectomy involves complete removal of necrotic pulp tissue and filling the canals. The document then describes in detail the steps for pulpectomy, including access opening, instrumentation, irrigation, and obturation. Various instruments, irrigation solutions, and obturation techniques are discussed. The objectives of pulpectomy treatment and indications/contraindications are also summarized.
1. Access cavity preparation is the first and most important phase of root canal treatment, with the objectives being to provide straight line access to the apical foramen, locate all root canal orifices, and conserve sound tooth structure.
2. The principles of access cavity preparation include establishing an outline form based on pulp chamber size and shape and the number/direction of root canals, providing a convenience form for improved visibility and instrumentation, and removing caries/defective restorations while cleaning out pulp debris.
3. Key steps in access cavity preparation depend on the specific tooth but involve making an initial penetration, opening into the pulp chamber, locating canal orifices, and finishing/flaring

This document provides an overview of endodontic surgery and its concepts. It discusses the history and evolution of endodontic surgery techniques. It also covers indications for endodontic surgery, classifications of different surgical procedures, and considerations for pre-surgical treatment planning. Key surgical steps like flap design, osteotomy, and root-end resection are summarized.
Endodontic surgery ppt dr. ahmed elfatoryaabdesalam
Endodontic surgery, also known as apicoectomy, involves surgically resecting the root tip and surrounding pathological tissues to resolve periapical lesions and restore tissue health. It is often performed when root canal treatment fails or has difficulties. The aim is to disinfect the pulp space and seal it to prevent reinfection. Periapical lesions are caused by microbial contamination reaching the apex via caries or trauma. Treatment options include extraction, retreatment, or surgery. Endodontic surgery requires resection of the apex and removal of pathological tissue. Care must be taken near anatomical structures like the maxillary sinus or mental foramen. Both conventional and retrograde approaches are used depending on the clinical situation.
This document provides an overview of access cavity preparation in endodontics. It discusses objectives of access cavity preparation including removing caries and pulp tissue while conserving tooth structure. Principles of access cavity preparation including penetration, enlargement, and finishing phases are outlined. Challenging access preparations involving teeth with minimal crowns, heavily restored teeth, and calcified canals are described. The importance of radiographs and different access designs are also reviewed. Newer concepts and techniques in access cavity preparation such as conservative access cavities and guided/navigated access are introduced.
This document discusses BMPs (bone morphogenetic proteins), which are osteogenic proteins that form part of the TGF-beta family and are implicated in cell differentiation, tissue morphogenesis, regeneration and repair. Studies have shown that recombinant human BMP-2, BMP-4, and osteogenic protein 1 (OP-1) induce differentiation of adult pulp cells into odontoblasts and cause hard tissue formation when placed on exposed dental pulps in various animal studies. Commercially available recombinant human BMPs may be useful for experimentation and clinical trials of reparative dentinogenesis. The document also discusses the anatomy of root canals in primary teeth and guidelines for proper access preparation during endodontic procedures.

Stevens-Johnson syndrome is an immune-mediated condition that causes blistering and lesions of the skin and mucous membranes. It can be caused by certain infections, medications, and other factors. Acetaminophen use increases the risk of developing Stevens-Johnson syndrome. Signs include rashes, blisters, and lesions affecting the eyes, mouth, genitals or other mucous membranes. Treatment focuses on supportive care, stopping any triggering medications, and managing symptoms.
The document discusses dental matrices used for composite fillings. It describes several matrix systems including Walser matrices, which use flexible bands that conform to teeth. The Walser system includes precontoured matrix formers in tidy packages for different tooth shapes. FenderMate is also described as offering a fast and safe means for establishing small to medium Class II composite fillings. It reaches from the base of a wedge to just above the occlusal surface and comes in regular and narrow sizes for left and right teeth.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

3. A clear understanding of the anatomy of human teeth becomes an
essential prerequisite for achieving the objectives of access, through
cleaning, disinfection, and obturation of the pulp space.
In this presentation we have tried to describe the access opening of
maxillary lateral incisor .
Introduction
4. Introduction
Average length of 21- 22 mm.
It has a single canal and a single apical
foramen.
The canal form is usually Type I.
In young patients have two only pulp horn and
is wider in labiopalatal dimension.
The canal is tapered and the apex is often
curved generally in distal direction.
5. Access cavity
The access cavity preparation
generally refers to the part of
the cavity from the occlusion
table to the canal orifice.
6. Objective of Access cavity
Well designed access preparation is
essential for a good endodontic result.
Without adequate access,
instruments and material
becomes difficult to handle
properly in the highly
complex and variable canal
system.
7. So :
Objective of Access cavity
To achieve a straight or direct line access to the apical foramen.
To locate all root canal orifice.
To conserve sound tooth structure.
Well prepared and correct access cavity allow complete irrigation,
shaping ,cleaning and quality obturation.
Ideal access results in a straight entry into the canal orifice, with
the line angles forming a funnel that drops smoothly into the
canal.
8. Guidelines for Access Cavity Preparation
1. Visualization of internal anatomy
because internal anatomy dictates access shape.
This require evaluation of angled
peri-apical radiograph , examination of
coronal and cervical tooth anatomy.
9. 2. Preparation of the access
cavity is through
The center of lingual surface
in anatomic crown.
3. round bur or tapered
fissure bur is used to
penetrate the enamel and
slightly into the dentine
10. 4. The bur is directed perpendicular
to the lingual surface as the
external outline opening is
created.
5 . Penetration of the pulp chamber
roof is continuing with the same
round or tapered fissure bur, we
change the angle of the bur from
perpendicular to the lingual
surface to parallel to the long
axis of the tooth.until the roof
of the pulp chamber is
penetrated, frequently a drop-in
effect is felt when the
penetration occurs.
11.
12. 6. Once the pulp chamber has been
penetrated, the remaining roof is
removed by catching the end of a
round bur under the lip of the dentin
roof and cutting on the bur ‘s removal
stroke.
13. 7. Identification of All Canal
Orifices
By endodontic explorer
8.Removal of lingual shoulder, orifice and coronal flaring
Once the orifice has been identified, the lingual shoulder is
removed.
Lingual Shoulder-: this is the lingual shelf of dentin that
extends from the cingulum to a point approximately 2mm
apical to the orifice.
14. At the end :
9.Straight line access determination by endodontic file
And
10. Refinement and smoothing of restorating margins.
