- 98. Surgical considerations Lesions – non odontogenic Biopsy – definitive means , osseous pathosis Retreatment - approach ? Apical surgery – failed nsrct Cause should be corrected first 64
- 99. Endodontic surgery – primary procedure - Non surgical treatment is not possible 65
- 100. Pts with preoperative pain – lower healing rate // pts without pain Periodontal condition – interproximal bone levels, marginal bone loss Isolated endodontic lesion – better prognosis than endoperio lesion 66
- 101. Advent of microscope, endoscope , ultrasonics, retrograde filling instruments –improved surgery CBCT – 3-D image of tooth , pathosis, localizing mandibular canal, maxillary sinus 67
- 102. Restorative & Prosthodontic considerations Subosseous root caries Poor crown root ratio Extensive periodontal defects Malaligned teeth To be identified before Rx 68
- 103. Reduced coronal tooth structure beneath a full crown – difficult access & lack of idea about pulp chamber When possible , remove restorations before starting endodontic Rx Quality of coronal restoration – imp as the root filling 69
- 104. Conclusion Thus, according to Torabinejad and Goodacre, the decision to retain or remove teeth should be based on Thorough assessment of risk factors affecting long term prognosis of endodontic treatment 70
- 105. The clinician should consider Patient related factors Tooth and periodontium related factors Treatment related factors 71
- 106. The use of rotary instruments, ultrasonics, microscopy as well as new materials Made it possible to predictably reatin teeth that previously would have been extracted 72
- 107. In addition, even teeth that have failed following nsrct can often be retreated using non surgical or surgical approach. 73
