This document discusses factors to consider for case selection in endodontic treatment. Proper case selection is important to ensure successful treatment outcomes and avoid pitfalls. Key factors include those related to the tooth itself like root canal anatomy, restorability, and periodontal support. Patient health factors like medical history and physical status must also be evaluated. The clinician's skill and ability to handle different cases is another important consideration. Careful evaluation of all relevant factors helps determine if endodontic therapy is appropriate and predicts the difficulty level of the case.

Introduction and the scope of operative dentistry with advancement of operative field. The examination procedure for assessing a patient for operative treatment and reaching a comprehensive treatment plan.
This document discusses factors to consider when selecting cases for endodontic treatment. It begins by introducing the importance of proper case selection to avoid treatment failures. Key considerations for case selection include assessing the need for the tooth, its restorability, periodontal health, and the clinician's ability to perform the necessary procedures. Factors associated specifically with teeth include indications for treatment, as well as contraindications like insufficient support, improper positioning, excessive calcification or abnormal canal morphology. Patient health factors that may impact treatment include medical history, physical status, and conditions requiring antibiotic prophylaxis like cardiovascular diseases. The document provides guidelines on evaluating these case selection factors to optimize endodontic treatment outcomes.
The document discusses treatment planning in periodontics. It begins by defining treatment planning and outlining the short and long-term goals. These include eliminating infection and inflammation and reconstructing a healthy dentition. The treatment plan is the blueprint and involves decisions about emergency treatment, extractions, nonsurgical and surgical therapies, restorations, and maintenance. Phases of treatment are discussed including preliminary, nonsurgical, surgical, and maintenance phases. Factors in deciding whether to extract or preserve a tooth are also outlined.

Diagnosis and treatment planning of Removable Partial Denture dwijk
This document discusses the process of examining a patient and developing a treatment plan for a removable partial denture. It covers organizing the initial examination, evaluating medical and dental history, performing diagnostic tests and impressions, and analyzing the data to formulate a treatment plan. The goal is to thoroughly understand the patient's condition and needs to develop a successful treatment.
Diagnosis and treatment planning in removable partial dentureVinay Kadavakolanu
The document discusses the process of treatment planning for removable partial dentures (RPDs). It begins by outlining the steps of patient interview, clinical examination, and treatment planning. Key aspects of the clinical examination are described, including medical history, oral examination, and diagnostic models and radiographs. Factors considered in treatment planning include classification of the edentulism, abutment conditions, occlusion, and residual ridge. Treatment options and their indications are also summarized. The treatment planning process aims to address the patient's unique dental needs and desires through shared decision making.
Endodontic treatment and tooth extraction with dental implant placement are two main treatment options for a diseased tooth. There are numerous factors to consider when deciding between the options, including prognosis, risks and benefits, costs, and the patient's medical history and preferences. While implant survival rates are high in the short term, endodontic treatment has shown positive survival rates in both the short and long term. Additionally, endodontic treatment preserves the natural tooth and soft tissue, which is important for aesthetics. The optimal treatment must consider all relevant factors and the patient's best interests.
The long-term preservation of the dentition is closely associated with the frequency and quality of recall maintenance. The therapist should use risk assessment and educate the patient on the need for periodontal maintenance. Supportive periodontal therapy is a lifetime effort to prevent the disease from recurring. Patients who do not return for supportive periodontal therapy lose more teeth than compliant patients.
The orthodontic assessment involves gathering information about the patient's orthodontic problems through taking a history, clinical examination, and records. This information is collected to accurately diagnose the patient's malocclusion. The assessment identifies the patient's orthodontic problems to form the basis of the diagnosis. It also identifies potential risks and benefits of treatment so the patient can provide informed consent. The assessment examines the patient's dentition and facial proportions in all three planes to evaluate their underlying skeletal pattern and soft tissues.
This document provides information on diagnosing and treatment planning for partially edentulous patients. It discusses the importance of proper diagnosis in developing an effective treatment plan. Key diagnostic procedures include patient interviews and history, clinical examination of intraoral and extraoral structures, radiographic examination, and evaluation of diagnostic casts. The document outlines factors to consider for each diagnostic procedure to thoroughly evaluate the patient's condition and needs to determine the most appropriate treatment.
An immediate denture is a denture that is made prior to tooth extraction and inserted immediately after the teeth are removed. It maintains soft tissue contours and prevents issues like infection. The document outlines the indications, advantages, disadvantages, types, and clinical process for providing an immediate denture. Key steps include making impressions before extraction, inserting the denture after surgery, and follow up appointments to manage tissue changes. Immediate dentures can help patients maintain esthetics and function after tooth loss.
The document provides information on orthodontic diagnosis and clinical examination. It discusses examining the patient's age, medical history, dental history, chief complaint, and habits which help in diagnosis and treatment planning. The clinical examination evaluates the skeletal, facial, and occlusal characteristics to determine the cause of malocclusion which can be skeletal, dental, soft tissue, or a combination. This includes assessing the anteroposterior, vertical, and transverse jaw relationships to classify the skeletal pattern and guide orthodontic treatment.
Mc Cracken chapter 2: Consideration for managing Partial tooth Loss Joel Koshy
1. The document discusses considerations for managing partial tooth loss through removable partial dentures (RPDs). It covers topics like different types of RPDs, reasons for failure, and the six phases of RPD service.
2. Key types discussed are tooth-supported, tooth and tissue-supported, and distal extension RPDs. The six phases of service include patient education, diagnosis and treatment planning, establishing occlusion, placement, and periodic recalls.
3. While RPDs have limitations like dependence on patient cooperation, the document notes they can provide long-term function when made properly and with patient maintenance, while also being an economical option.
Root canal treatment and dental implants are both viable treatment options for replacing missing or compromised teeth. Success rates of each treatment are generally high, ranging from 92-97% for root canals and 95-99% for implants. Other factors beyond success rates must be considered, including patient characteristics, habits, concerns, and costs. Overall, both treatments can successfully restore oral function but root canals may involve fewer complications and costs compared to implants. The decision requires weighing risks and benefits based on the individual clinical situation.
Periodontal Treatment Planning & Phase I TherapyRiad Mahmud
The document discusses periodontal treatment planning and phase I therapy. It begins by outlining the importance of establishing treatment goals, including immediate, intermediate, and long-term goals. The goals of treatment are to eliminate infection and inflammation, reduce pocket depth, and establish periodontal health to maintain oral function and health over the long term. Nonsurgical therapy generally begins with scaling and root planing to reduce infection, followed by reevaluation and possible surgical therapy if needed. The maintenance of oral hygiene is essential for long-term periodontal health.
Treatment planning is the second most important part of orthodontic management. It involves defining treatment aims, such as overjet reduction, and developing a treatment plan to accomplish these aims using specific appliance systems. Some common problems addressed in treatment include improving dental health, relieving crowding, correcting malocclusions, and aligning teeth. The treatment plan should consider factors like oral health, the dental arches, and choice of appliance. Developing an effective treatment strategy involves collecting data, prioritizing problems, considering options, and defining a specific treatment plan.

Fixed prosthodontic treatment can offer exceptional satisfaction for both patient and the dentist. Fixed Prosthodontics can transform an unhealthy, unattractive dentition with poor function into a comfortable, healthy occlusion capable of giving years of further service while greatly enhancing esthetics.
Nothing is more important in the construction of fixed partial dentures than an adequate diagnosis and a well-devised treatment plan. Although these two subjects are usually considered together. Astute dentists must recognize their subtle differences. Diagnosis is an evaluation of the condition of the patient when he presents for treatment. Treatment planning concerns the treatment procedures by which the dentist will restore the patient to an optimum state of dental health.
The document discusses the treatment plan for periodontal therapy. It defines the treatment plan as the blueprint for case management that includes all procedures needed to establish and maintain oral health. The goals of treatment are to eliminate inflammation, correct conditions that cause it, and establish healthy gum contours. Treatment involves nonsurgical procedures, possible surgery, restorations, and a maintenance phase with periodic checkups. The treatment plan guides the phases of therapy and overall management of the patient's periodontal condition.

Deep Behavioral Phenotyping in Systems Neuroscience for Functional Atlasing a...Ana Luísa Pinho
Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) provides means to characterize brain activations in response to behavior. However, cognitive neuroscience has been limited to group-level effects referring to the performance of specific tasks. To obtain the functional profile of elementary cognitive mechanisms, the combination of brain responses to many tasks is required. Yet, to date, both structural atlases and parcellation-based activations do not fully account for cognitive function and still present several limitations. Further, they do not adapt overall to individual characteristics. In this talk, I will give an account of deep-behavioral phenotyping strategies, namely data-driven methods in large task-fMRI datasets, to optimize functional brain-data collection and improve inference of effects-of-interest related to mental processes. Key to this approach is the employment of fast multi-functional paradigms rich on features that can be well parametrized and, consequently, facilitate the creation of psycho-physiological constructs to be modelled with imaging data. Particular emphasis will be given to music stimuli when studying high-order cognitive mechanisms, due to their ecological nature and quality to enable complex behavior compounded by discrete entities. I will also discuss how deep-behavioral phenotyping and individualized models applied to neuroimaging data can better account for the subject-specific organization of domain-general cognitive systems in the human brain. Finally, the accumulation of functional brain signatures brings the possibility to clarify relationships among tasks and create a univocal link between brain systems and mental functions through: (1) the development of ontologies proposing an organization of cognitive processes; and (2) brain-network taxonomies describing functional specialization. To this end, tools to improve commensurability in cognitive science are necessary, such as public repositories, ontology-based platforms and automated meta-analysis tools. I will thus discuss some brain-atlasing resources currently under development, and their applicability in cognitive as well as clinical neuroscience.

2. The process of case selection and treatment planning
begins after a clinician has diagnosed an endodontic
problem.
The use of (CBCT), rotary instruments, ultrasonics, and
microscopy, as well as new materials, has made it possible to
retain teeth that previously would have been extracted.
In addition, even teeth that have failed initial endodontic
treatment can often be successfully retreated using
nonsurgical or surgical procedures.
3.
4. Case selection is broadly based upon
three factors :
1) Factors associated with teeth.
2) Factors associated with patients health.
3) Factors associated with clinician.
5. first step always should be examination of the
teeth and oral cavity. Clinician should judge
whether the teeth needed any kind of
endodontic treatment or not.
6. 1-Actual Reason for Endodontic Therapy
If there is pulp involvement due to
caries, trauma, etc.
2-Elective Endodontics
elective endodontic is done with crack
or heavily restored tooth, to prevent
premature loss of cusp during their
restoration (usually crown
preparation) and eliminate fear of
pulp exposure
7. Periapical pathology or diseases of
periradicular tissue, like acute or chronic
apical periodontitis, acute or chronic
periapical abscess can be treated by
endodontic procedure.
8. Fractured teeth often require endodontic
treatment which helps to maintain its normal
esthetic form and functional properties.
Deciduous teeth having pulpal involvement and
crown fracture required treatment procedure
like pulpotomy, direct pulp capping,
apexification, apexogenesis.
Vertical crown fracture in multi rooted teeth
can also be treated by endodontic procedures
like hemisection followed by root canal therapy.
9. In patients with attrited teeth, rampant caries
or recurrent decay and smooth surface
defects, it is wise to do desensitization of the
teeth so that patients do not feel discomfort
to cold or sweets.
10. Sometimes patient comes with acute dental
pain, in such cases endodontic therapy is
often indicated before a complete
examination and treatment plan doing.
11. Mainly there are following four factors which
influence the decision of endodontic treatment :
1. Accessibility of apical foramen.
2. Restorability of the involved tooth.
3. Strategic importance of the involved tooth.
4. General resistance of the patient.
12. 1. Insufficient periodontal support
InTeeth having grade three
mobility extraction is preffered over
endodontic treatment
A tooth with a poor periodontal
prognosis may have to be
sacrificed, despite a favorable
endodontic prognosis.
13. Partially erupted, impacted and malpositioned
teeth are contraindicated for endodontic treatment.
It is very difficult to make proper accessibility and
isolation while doing endodontic treatment in these
malposed teeth.
14. Non restorable teeth: Such teeth with
extensive root caries, furcation caries, poor
crown/root ratio, with fractured root are
contraindicated for endodontic treatment.
Because in such cases even the best canal
filling is futile if it is impossible to place the
restoration
15. Severely curved canal, c shaped canal, aberrant
extra canals are very difficult for instrumentation
Teeth with such canal configuration are not ideal for
endodontic treatment.
Curvature of 20° in a narrow root canal is very
difficult to negotiate also a curvature of 30°with a
wide canal is not easily negotiable.
16. Developmental anomalies like fusion,
gemination, concrescences, enamel pearl are
difficult to treat with endodontic procedures.
17. Excessive calcification of canal prevents proper
instrumentation. Which may cause failure of
endodontic treatment or iatrogenic errors like
perforation, ledging etc.
18. An unfavorable crown/root ratio that exceeds
1:1 is more susceptible to eccentric occlusal
forces, and hence prognosis is poor.
Sometimes these teeth maybe indicated for
extraction, but before a decision for
extraction is made referral to a prosthetic
dentist for an accurate evaluation maybe
necessary.
19. PainfulTeeth where previous attempt of
endodontic treatment has been done often
show ledges, perforations, broken
instruments in the canals.
Prognosis of such cases are questionable if
not treated properly.
20. There are two major factors
which relegate a strategic tooth to the hopeless status;
restorability and periodontal support.The tooth that
cannot be restored or that has inadequate, amenable
periodontal support is hopeless.
Evaluation of the oral cavity can decide whether
tooth is strategic or not,
For example if a person has multiple missing teeth, root
canal of third molar may be needed. But in case of well
maintained oral hygiene with full dentition, an exposed
third molar can be considered for extraction.
21. Before starting endodontic treatment the clinician must
take proper medical history about the patient.
Systemic conditions: Most of the medical conditions do
not contraindicate the endodontic treatment but patient
should be thoroughly evaluated in order to manage the
case optimally.
22. The clinician should have proper
endodontic instruments and clinical set
up for the treatment.
Evaluation of the clinician: Clinician
should be honest while dealing with the
case. Self evaluation should be done for
his experience, capability to do the case,
equipment he has or not for the
completion of the case.
23. The scope of endodontics has changed; the
clinician now has more viable options than ever
before.
In recent years, there is increasing evidence to
support the implementation of regenerative
procedures for some immature teeth
vital pulp therapy
replantation of teeth with failed endodontic
procedures.
Treatment planning must now include those
options as well as nonsurgical or surgical
endodontics.
24. The evaluation must include
assessment of medical, psychosocial, and
dental factors as well as consideration of the
relative complexity of the endodontic procedure.
Although most medical conditions do not
contraindicate endodontic treatment, some can
influence the course of treatment and require
specific modifications.
the most important advice for a clinician who
plans to treat a medically compromised patient is
to be prepared to communicate with the
patient’s physician
25. An alternative means of considering risk assessment is to review
the following issues:
◼ History of allergies
◼ History of drug interactions, adverse effects
◼ Presence of prosthetic valves, joints, stents, pacemakers
◼ Antibiotics required (prophylactic or therapeutic)
◼ Patient position in chair
◼ Infiltration or block anesthesia with or without
vasoconstrictor
◼ Significant equipment concerns (radiographs, ultrasonics,
electrosurgery)
◼ Emergencies (potential for occurrence, preparedness)
◼ Anxiety (past experiences and management strategy)
26. following steps are needed and skipping a step may
lead to the endodontic failure or less desirable result:
• Take proper history and medical history of the patient
• Make accurate diagnosis and treatment planning
• Obtain adequate anesthesia
• Isolate the tooth using rubber dam
• Utilize adequate visualization and lighting
• Obtain straight line access to the canals
• Complete biomechanical preparation of the tooth
• Efficient and safe use of nickel titanium files
• Copiously irrigate at all stages
• Obturate the canal three dimensionally
• Give the coronal restoration to tooth.
27.
28. The treatment planning signifies the planning
of the management of the patient’s dental
problems in systematic and ordered way that
assumes a complete knowledge of patient
needs, nature of problem and prognosis of the
treatment.
Thus the stage of assessment of a complete
picture overlaps with the stages of decision
making, treatment planning and
treatment phase.
29. Proper sequencing is a critical component of
a successful treatment plan. Complex
treatment plans often should be sequenced in
phases, including :
1) an urgent phase
2) control phase
3) re-evaluation phase
4) definitive phase
5) maintenance phase
30. The urgent phase of care begins with a
thorough review of the patient's medical
condition and history. So, a patient
presenting with swelling, pain, bleeding, or
infection should have these problems
managed as soon as possible and certainly
before initiation of subsequent phases.
31. It is meant to
1) eliminate active disease such as caries and
inflammation
2) remove conditions preventing maintenance
3) eliminate potential causes of disease, and
4) begin preventive dentistry activities
32. This phase includes extractions,
endodontics, periodontal debridement and
scaling, occlusal adjustment as needed, caries
removal, replacement/repair of defective
restorations such as those with gingival
overhangs, and use of caries control
measures
The goals of this phase are to remove
etiologic factors and stabilize the patient's
dental health
33. The holding phase is the time between the
control and definitive phases that allows for
resolution of inflammation and time for
healing. Home care habits are reinforced,
motivation for further treatment is assessed,
and initial treatment and pulpal responses are
re-evaluated before definitive care is begun.
34. After the dentist reassesses initial treatment
and determines the need for further care, the
patient enters the corrective or definitive
phase of treatment. Sequencing operative
care with endodontic, periodontal,
orthodontic, oral surgical, and prosthodontic
treatment is essential
35. This includes regular recall examinations that:
1. may reveal the need for adjustments to
prevent future breakdown, and
2. provide an opportunity to reinforce home
care.
36. The frequency of re-evaluation examinations
during the maintenance phase depends in large
part on the patient's risk for dental disease:
1) A patient who has stable periodontal health
and a recent history of no caries should have
longer intervals (e.g. 9–12 months or longer)
between recall visits.
2) Those at high risk for dental caries and/or
periodontal breakdown should be examined
much more frequently (e.g. 3–4 months).
37. A treatment plan for gaining the patient compliance and
to have success in the pain management should progress as
follows:
• Treatment of acute problem includes first step of
endodontic treatment which comprises of access opening,
extirpation of pulp and allowing drainage through pulp.
• Oral hygiene instructions, diet instructions.
• Temporary restoration of carious teeth, scaling and
polishing.
• Definitive restorations of carious teeth.
• Complete root canal treatments of required teeth.
• Do endodontic surgery if needed.
• Evaluate the prognosis of treated teeth.
• Provide post endodontic restorations.
38. • Chief complaint regarding pain and swelling requires
urgent treatment and planning for definitive solution.
• Previous history of dental treatment (solve the residual
problems of previous dental treatment).
• Medical history (identify factors which can compromise
dental treatment).
• Intraoral examination (to know the general oral condition
first before focusing on site of complaint so as not to miss
the cause).
• Extraoral examination (to differentially diagnose the chief
complaint).
• Oral hygiene.
39. • Periodontal status (to see the periodontal foundation for long
term prognosis of involved tooth).
• Teeth and restorative status (to identify replacement of
missing teeth, status of the remaining dentition).
• Occlusion (to check functional relationship between
opposing teeth, parafunctional habits, etc.).
• Special tests (to explore the unseen tissues).
• Diagnosis (repeat the series of conclusion).
• Treatment options (evaluate various options to decide the
best choice for long term benefit of the patient).
40. • Health and systemic status of patient
• Previous restoration
• Root canal anatomy
• Presence or absence of periapical pathology
• Complexity of root canal system
• Periodontal health of tooth
• Presence or absence of root resorption
• Skill of clinician
• Patient’s cooperation.
41. • Cleaning and shaping of apical third of canal is more
important than middle third. Apical third should be thoroughly
cleaned and sealed so that microorganisms cannot reach the
periapical tissues.
• When there is periapical radiolucency, prognosis is poorer
when compared to a normal tooth.
• When there is perforation on root surface, it should be
sealed at the earliest for better prognosis.
• When there is open apex, it is difficult to seal the canal
because of its shape. In such teeth, before obturation,
apexification using calcium hydroxide or MTA should be
attempted for developing apical barrier.
• When there is persistent acute infection in previously
treated tooth, nonsurgical endodontic treatment should
be tried before attempting surgical endodontics.
42. • When there is apical third fracture, and pulp is vital,
stabilize the tooth.
– If pulp is nonvital, attempt endodontic treatment
– If it is difficult to negotiate fractured segment, check it
periodically.
– If radiolucency appears, manage the case surgically.
• In retreatment cases, care should be taken to remove
any previous root canal filling. If it cannot be retrieved from
periapical tissues, surgical resection of root tip should be
considered.
• In case of endodontic-periodontal lesion, if extensive
destruction of periodontal attachment is present,
prognosis is poor.
• If alveolar bone destruction involves more than half
of the root, attempts should be made to improve the
periodontal status. In case of grade III mobility, prognosis
is poorer.
• If crown is extensively damaged that it cannot be
restored, root canal treatment should not be attempted.
