This document provides information about pulpectomy procedures for primary teeth. It begins with definitions of pulpectomy and considerations for primary teeth. Indications include traumatized or carious primary teeth with signs of pain or infection, while contraindications include non-restorable teeth or excessive root resorption. The procedure involves accessing the pulp chamber, removing coronal and radicular pulp tissue, cleaning and shaping canals, and obturating with resorbable materials like zinc oxide eugenol. Access cavities must be carefully prepared and obturation techniques like lentulo spirals or pressure syringes are discussed. Success criteria include resolution of symptoms and adequate root length for exfoliation. Periodic reviews are
This document provides an overview of pulpotomy procedures for primary teeth. It begins with definitions of pulpotomy and discusses the rationale, objectives, indications, contraindications and classification of different pulpotomy techniques. It then describes various medicaments that can be used, including formocresol, glutaraldehyde, calcium hydroxide, and ferric sulfate. The document outlines techniques for formocresol pulpotomy, electrosurgical pulpotomy, and laser pulpotomy. It also discusses recent concepts in pulpotomy including the use of bone morphogenetic protein and enamel matrix derivatives. The document concludes by examining reasons for failure of pulpotomy therapy.
This document discusses the frenum attachment in the oral cavity, its development and variations. It describes different types of frenum attachments and associated syndromes like Ehlers-Danlos syndrome. Complications of an abnormal frenum like gingival recession and difficulty brushing are mentioned. Treatment techniques for abnormal frenum like frenectomy and frenotomy using conventional, Z-plasty, and laser methods are summarized. Post-operative instructions are provided.
Tooth mobility refers to loose teeth that can move within their sockets. It is classified on a scale of 0 to 3 based on the degree of horizontal and vertical movement. Physiologic mobility of about 0.25mm is normal, while pathologic mobility over 1mm indicates loose teeth from periodontal disease or trauma. Periodontal disease is a primary cause as it leads to loss of attachment and bone supporting the teeth. Treatment involves splinting loose teeth together, replacing missing teeth, and correcting occlusal surfaces to reduce excessive forces. For advanced periodontal cases, extraction may be necessary.
This document discusses apexogenesis and apexification, which are processes for encouraging continued root development in immature permanent teeth with open apices or non-vital pulps. Apexogenesis aims to maintain pulp vitality through treatments like pulpotomy to allow for continued physiological root development, while apexification uses materials like calcium hydroxide or MTA to induce the formation of an apical barrier in a pulpless tooth to enable filling of the root canal. The document provides details on the objectives, materials, techniques and outcomes of these procedures.
Working length is the distance from a coronal reference point to the point where canal preparation and obturation should terminate. It is important to determine working length precisely using radiographs or electronic apex locators. The radiographic method involves measuring the total length of the tooth on preoperative radiographs, subtracting 1mm as a safety factor, and confirming length under radiograph after instrumentation. Electronic apex locators use electric current to detect the apical foramen. Tactile methods are unreliable due to risk of over-instrumentation or under-instrumentation.
Abutment & Its Selection In Fixed Partial DentureSelf employed
This document discusses factors to consider when selecting abutment teeth for fixed partial dentures (FPDs). It defines an abutment tooth and outlines how to assess potential abutments, including taking radiographs and evaluating crown morphology, root configuration, crown-to-root ratio, and other anatomical features. Good abutment teeth are vital with adequate bone and root support and crown structure to withstand forces from the FPD. Location, occlusion, tooth structure and root health must be optimized for successful force distribution from the prosthesis.

This document discusses provisional restorations, including their definition, purpose, requirements, and fabrication methods. Provisional restorations are interim prostheses used for a limited time after tooth preparation until a permanent restoration can be placed. They protect the prepared tooth, maintain function and aesthetics, and allow the dentist to assess treatment. Ideal provisionals have biologic requirements like pulp protection and positional stability, mechanical requirements like strength and retention, and aesthetic requirements like color matching. They can be custom-made using various resin or metal materials or prefabricated. Direct, indirect, and combined fabrication techniques are described.
Pulpotomy is the removal of the coronal portion of the pulp while preserving the radicular pulp. It is indicated for cariously exposed primary teeth when extraction is less advantageous than retention. There are various techniques for pulpotomy including devitalization with formocresol or other chemicals to fix the pulp, preservation techniques using less harmful chemicals to maintain pulp vitality, and regeneration techniques aiming to stimulate reparative dentin formation. The goal of pulpotomy is to disinfect the exposed pulp, maintain pulp vitality, and avoid periapical issues.
This document discusses self-correcting anomalies that arise during development from the predentate period to the permanent dentition period. It classifies anomalies based on the developmental period and describes several types including retrognathic mandible, anterior open bite, deep bite, flush terminal plane, primate and physiological spacing, anterior deep bite, end on molar relation, mandibular anterior crowding, and the ugly duckling stage. Many of these anomalies correct on their own through continued growth, eruption of teeth, attrition, and movement of jaws without requiring dental treatment.

This document discusses various methods for gaining space in orthodontic treatment, including proximal stripping, arch expansion, extraction, distalization of molars, uprighting tilted molars, derotation of posterior teeth, and proclination/flaring of anterior teeth. It provides details on techniques such as rapid maxillary expansion using devices like Hyrax or bonded expanders, extraction of first premolars, and distalization of molars using appliances like pendulum or Jones Jig. The document also covers indications, advantages, and disadvantages of different space gaining methods.
Fixed partial dentures transmit forces through the abutments to the periodontium. Failures are due to poor engineering, the use of improper materials, inadequate tooth preparation, and faulty fabrication. Of particular concern to prosthodontist is the selection of teeth for abutments. They must recognize the forces developed by the oral mechanism, and resistance.
Successful selection of abutments for fixed partial dentures requires sensitive diagnostic ability. Thorough knowledge of anatomy, ceramics, the chemistry and physics of dental materials, metallurgy, Periodontics, phonetics, physiology, radiology and the mechanics of oral function is fundamental.

The document discusses the dentinogenic concept introduced by John P. Frush and Roland D. Fisher. This concept states that the form of one's teeth is determined by factors like sex, age, and personality. Masculine features include prominent, square teeth while feminine features include smaller, rounded teeth. Personality is also a factor, with vigorous people having squarer teeth and delicate people having smaller, symmetrically arranged teeth. Age affects features like shade, wear, and the shape of the smiling line and canines. Dentinogenic restorations aim to incorporate these factors to create natural-looking teeth according to one's sex, personality, and age.
This document discusses resin bonded fixed partial dentures (RBFPDs). It defines RBFPDs as prostheses that are luted to tooth structure using composite resin. Various types are described, including cantilever, fixed-fixed, and hybrid bridges. Advantages include reduced cost and minimal tooth preparation. Indications are for replacing single missing teeth with caries-free abutments. A case example describes using an RBFPD to replace a missing mandibular incisor and splint mobile abutment teeth.
1. Space maintainers are appliances used to maintain space created by premature tooth loss. They prevent crowding, impaction, and other issues by holding space open.
2. Common space maintainers include band and loop, crown and loop, lingual arch, Nance palatal arch, and removable appliances. The best option depends on factors like time since tooth loss and dental age.
3. Space maintainers are generally indicated when space is closing, future orthodontics may be simplified, or to prevent issues like supraeruption. They are contraindicated if space isn't closing or the succedaneous tooth is absent.

Obturation Of Root Canal Obturation Of Root Canalvasanthatpuram
The document discusses obturation, which is the filling of the root canal system after chemomechanical preparation. Obturation aims to provide an impermeable seal within the root canal system to prevent reinfection from oral or apical microleakage. Ideal obturation extends to the cementodentinal junction and has a tapered funnel-like shape reflecting the root's morphology. Materials used for obturation include gutta-percha, silver cones, and various sealers. Gutta-percha is the most common material due to its biocompatibility and plasticity which allows it to fill canal irregularities.
This document discusses pulpectomy procedures for primary teeth. It defines pulpectomy as the complete removal of necrotic pulp from root canals of primary teeth and filling them with an inert resorbable material.

Access cavity preparation for maxillary caninesKritika Sarkar
The document summarizes the anatomy and access cavity preparation for maxillary canines. It describes the anatomy of the root canal system and clinical significance. It then outlines the objectives and steps for access cavity preparation, including visualizing internal anatomy, outlining access with a pencil, cutting through the center and extending the opening, removing undercuts to achieve straight-line access to the apical foramen, and irrigating periodically. The maxillary canine has the longest root among human teeth and its complex anatomy requires careful access preparation.
Non-vital pulp therapy in primary teeth involves removing infected or necrotic pulp tissue from the root canal through a procedure called pulpectomy. Pulpectomy can be partial, removing pulp from the crown only, or complete, removing all pulp tissue. It can be done in one or multiple visits. Sodium hypochlorite and chlorhexidine are common irrigants used to disinfect canals, along with EDTA or other chelators. The goal of pulpectomy is to eliminate infection while retaining the tooth until natural exfoliation, without harming the permanent successor tooth.

Periodontal plastic surgery is defined as the surgical procedures performed to correct deformities of the gingiva or alveolar mucosa. It includes widening of attached gingiva,
deepening of shallow vestibules, resection of the aberrant frena, depigmentation of gingiva.In all of these procedures, blood supply is the most significant concern and must be the underlying issue for all decisions regarding the individual surgical procedure.
This document discusses apexogenesis and apexification procedures for teeth with open apices or immature roots. Apexogenesis refers to inducing continued root development in a tooth with a vital pulp, while apexification aims to induce apical closure in a tooth with a non-vital pulp. For apexogenesis, calcium hydroxide is used to maintain pulp viability and allow root maturation. For apexification, multiple visits using calcium hydroxide or single-visit techniques with mineral trioxide aggregate are described to create an artificial apical barrier for obturation. The document outlines treatment approaches, materials, and expected outcomes for apexification and apexogenesis procedures.
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 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.
This document provides information on the surgical procedure of apicoectomy. It begins by defining apicoectomy as the surgical resection and removal of the root tip along with pathological tissues. It then lists indications for the procedure such as teeth with active periapical inflammation despite satisfactory endodontic therapy. The document describes the surgical technique which includes flap design, exposing the apex, resection of the apex, and potentially retrograde filling. It provides details on instruments used and cautions to take such as ensuring the resection is at a right angle to reduce apical leakage.
This document provides information on pulpectomy procedures for primary teeth. It defines pulpectomy and discusses guidelines for the procedure. It outlines the indications and contraindications for pulpectomy. Details are given on access opening and root canal anatomy in primary teeth. The document discusses techniques for pulpectomy, including one-stage and two-stage procedures. It also covers working length determination, instruments used, and cleaning and shaping of the root canals.
The document describes 4 case reports involving restoration of badly broken teeth. Case 1 describes restoration of an endodontically treated tooth with a custom post and crown. Case 2 describes restoration of a posterior tooth with a biological post. Case 3 describes restoration of a molar with an endo-crown. Case 4 describes restoration of an anterior tooth with a pin-retained restoration after fracture. Each case report provides details of the clinical situation, treatment plan, and procedures performed to restore the broken teeth.
Young permanent teeth have incompletely formed roots and differ from permanent teeth in their pulp chamber anatomy, pulp size, and dentin thickness. Their roots are longer and more slender compared to primary teeth. Indirect pulp capping involves applying a medicament over remaining dentin after deep caries removal without exposure. Direct pulp capping places a biocompatible material over an inadvertent exposure to seal the pulp. Pulpotomy removes coronal pulp tissue to preserve radicular vitality, while pulpectomy removes necrotic pulp and obturates canals to maintain an infection-free tooth.

Immediate esthetic rehabilitation of periodontally compromised anterior toothCPGIDSH
This document describes a case where a patient's natural tooth was used as a pontic to replace a compromised anterior tooth. The tooth was extracted, prepared to be used as a pontic by removing the root and sealing the canal. It was then bonded to the adjacent teeth using fiber-reinforced composite resin. This created a strong, esthetic bridge in a single visit. At a 1-year follow-up, the bridge was intact with good aesthetics and function and no problems reported. Using a natural tooth as a pontic with fiber reinforcement provides esthetic and psychological benefits for patients over other options.
The document discusses endodontic access cavity preparation. It defines access cavity preparation as creating an unobstructed opening to reach canal orifices and the apical foramen. There are principles for proper access, including establishing the correct outline form based on internal anatomy, providing direct access to canals and accommodation for instrumentation. Guidelines are provided for access preparation of different tooth types. Common errors include failing to identify all caries, establish proper access, or recognize tooth angulation. Proper access is the foundation for successful root canal treatment.

4. DEFINATIONS
Pulpectomy involves complete removal of necrotic pulpal tissue
from the root canals and coronal portion of non vital primary
teeth to maintain a tooth in the dental arch.
Richard J Mathewson, 1993
Pulpectomy refers to the removal of all pulpal tissue from the
tooth, including both coronal and root portions.
Sidney B Finn, 1999
5. Pulpectomy is removal of the roof and contents of the pulp chamber
in order to gain access to the root canals which are debrided,
enlarged and disinfected.
- Shobha tandon
Gaining access to the root canals which are then debrided, enlarged,
disinfected and filled with a resorbable material.
-
American Academy of Paediatric Dentistry, 1999
7. • Hibbard and Ireland, 1957, studied primary root
canal morphology by removing pulp from
extracted teeth, forcing acrylic resin into the pulp
canals and dissolving the covering of tooth
structure in 10% nitric acid.
• They found that immediately following root
formation, a single canal is usually present in
each root.
• Deposition of secondary dentin & accelerated
physiological root resorption.
• Variations included lateral branching, connecting
fibrils, apical ramifications and partial fusion of
8. • Another difficulty is the apparent connection
between the coronal pulpal floor with the
intraradicular area. –Moss et al, 1965
• These foramina allow the necrotic products to
pass into the bifurcation or trifurcation area.
• Using dyes and a vacuum system , Ringelstein
and Seow ,1989 found that many of the
foramina of primary second molars were
located on the root surfaces.

17. RULES FOR PROPER ACCESS
PREPARATION
• ENDODONTIC DOGMA “ Careful cavity preparation and root
canal obturation are the keystones to successful root canal
therapy”
• The objective of entry is to gain direct access to the apical
foramina and not merely to the canal orifices.
• Access cavity preparation are not guided by topography of
occlusal grooves, pits and fissures.
18. • Radiographs taken from different angles must be considered.
• Endodontic entries are prepared always through the occlusal
or lingual surface.
• The unsupported cusps of posterior teeth must be reduced to
avoid weakening of the tooth structure.
19. ACCESS OPENINGS FOR PULPECTOMY
ANTERIOR PRIMARY TEETH
• Traditionally – lingual surface except for discolored maxillary
primary incisors.
• Discoloration – escape of hemosiderin pigments into the
dentinal tubules.
• Root canal is filled with ZOE.
• Dycal is placed over ZOE
to serve as a barrier between the composite
resin and root canal filling.
20. POSTERIOR PRIMARY TEETH
• Less extension towards the exterior of the tooth.
• Working length radiograph – paralleling technique.
• 2-3 mm short of radiographic length.
• Thin walls of the roots- use of sonic and ultrasonic cleaning
devices, Gates Glidden drills– contraindicated.
Nickel –Titanium instruments recommended.
21. Important differences between the primary and permanent teeth
are-
Length and bulbous shape of the crowns
A very thin dentinal wall at the pulpal floor
The depth necessary to penetrate into the pulp
chamber is quite less than that in the permanent
teeth
Likewise, the distance from the occlusal surface to the pulpal
floor is much less than in permanent teeth.
22. To achieve optimal preparation. three factors are considered-
-Size of pulp chamber-
More extensive preparation in young children than older
-Shape of pulp chamber –
The finished outline should accurately mimic the shape of the pulp
chamber.
-Number ,position and curvature of the root canals
24. TECHNIQUES OF ROOT CANAL FILLING IN
PRIMARY TEETH
Pressure Syringe Technique –Greenberg (Pulpdent
corporation, America).
Disposable tuberculin syringe or Local Anaesthetic syringe
technique.
Slowly rotating Lentulo Spiral Technique.
Jiffy tubes
Incremental pressure syringe
25. PRESSURE SYRINGE
• Comprises
TECHNIQUE
• The filling material – heavy putty like consistency.
• Hub of the needle –loaded with the paste.
• Needle is threaded on the syringe barrel, plunger is turned.
• Needle is reinserted in the canal , tip is repositioned 1mm
short
Syringe barrel
Threaded plunger
Wrench
Threaded needles (gauge 13-30)
26. PRESSURE SYRINGE TECHNIQUE
• Threaded plunger- one hand, wrench in opposite hand.
• Threaded plunger is adjusted one quarter turn and retracted
slightly.
• Additional condensation – moist cotton pellet.
• Multiple canals – 2 periapical films
Weisz, 1976 designated pressure syringe as the optimal selection for
exact placement of paste within apical portions of fine and tortuous
canals.
He found the spiral lentulo most effective in treating single rooted teeth
with straight canals.
27.
28. LENTULOSPIRAL TECHNIQUE
• Pastes can also be filled by means of lentulo spiral mounted
on the micro motor hand piece. They have shown the success
rate of 96% and 92% when hand held. The direction of
rotation needs to be checked for the material to properly flow
into the canals
29. • The primary teeth with their larger canals can be filled with
the thin mix coating the walls of the canal with the help of a
reamer in an anti clock wise direction while taking it out
slowly followed by the placement of the thicker mix which is
then pushed manually.
30. • Root length is the most reliable criteria of root integrity and
atleast 4mm of the root length is necessary for the primary
tooth to be treatable. – Rimmondini L, Baroni C, 1995
• If the inflammation is beyond the coronal pulp with only
interradicular but no periapical radiolucency, a single visit
pulpectomy is preffered. On the other hand if the pulp is
necrotic with periapical involvement , filling procedure is
delayed.
31. According to Finn-
• Care should be observed not to penetrate past the apical ends
of the tooth when reaming out of the canals.
• Secondly, a resorbable compound such as zinc oxide eugenol
should be used as a filling material. Silver points and gutta
percha should not be placed.
• Thirdly filling material should be introduced into the canal
with light pressure.
• Fourthly, apicoectomy should not be performed except in the
absence of a developing permanent tooth.
32. REVIEW OF LITERATURE
Acceptable result was obtained with lentulospiral in length of
obturation compared to insulin syringe and endodontic plugger
technique. Insulin syringe technique resulted in increased
underfilling with least number of voids. More number of voids
were seen in middle one-third and least number of voids were
observed at apical one third of the root among all the 3
techniques of obturation. The study concluded that void
identification is improved with D.I.O.R compared to C.B.C.T.

incisors using digital intra-oral receptor and C.B.C.T-an in vitro study. Clin Oral
investgn 2018 May 10.
33. AAPD GUIDELINES
Following treatment, the radiographic infectious process should
resolve in 6 months, as evidenced by bone deposition in the
pretreatment radiolucent areas.
Pre-treatment clinical signs and symptoms should resolve within a
few weeks.
There should be radiographic evidence of successful filling without
gross overextension or underfilling.
The treatment should permit resorption of the primary tooth root
and filling material to permit normal eruption of the succedaneous
tooth.
There should be no pathologic root resorption or furcation/apical
radiolucency.
35. IDEAL PROPERTIES
• Resorption rate should be similar to that of primary root.
• Should not interfere in the eruption of permanent successors.
• Should be harmless to periapical tissue and permanent tooth
germ.
• Should not cause foreign body reaction when pressed beyond
the apex.
• Should be antimicrobial and have easy handling property.
• Should be easy to mix and fill the root canals.
36. • Material should be radio opaque.
• Material should not discolor the tooth.
• Should adhere to the canal walls and should not shrink.
• Material should be economical.
38. ZINC- OXIDE EUGENOL CEMENT
• The filling material of choice in the US is ZOE without a
catalyst.
ADVANTAGES
Easy to mix
Economical
Time tested material
DISADVANTAGES
Overfilling- foreign body reaction.
Resorption rate is less than that of the
root.
May deflect the path of permanent
successors.
Extrusion beyond the apex may cause
hypoplastic changes in the permanent
successors.
40. IODOFORM
ADVANTAGES OF IODOFORM PREPARATIONS-
It can be easily forced into the pulp canals and any accessory
canals.
Bactericidal paste.
Resorbs rapidly from the periapical tissue and root canal
system.
Does not produce undesirable effects on the erupting
permanent successors.
Iodoform is an ideal pulpectomy agent. It disinfects, is
managed well clinically and resorbs simultaneously with the
primary root. ( Ranly and Garcia Godoy, 1991)
41. • The antibacterial activity of an iodoform containing paste (KRI Paste)
has been shown to be less than that of ZOE whereas its cytotoxicity
in direct or indirect contact with the cells is equal to or greater than
that of ZOE.
• Several studies have endorsed iodoform paste as a biocompatible
substitute for the ZOE –formocresol combination (Rifkin, 1980;
Garcia Godoy, 1987)
42. CALCIUM HYDROXIDE
• CALCIUM HYDROXIDE- IODOFORM MIXTURE
( VITAPEX/METAPEX)
COMPOSITION
Iodoform 40.4%
Calcium hydroxide 30.3%
Silicone 22.4%
ADVANTAGES-
Easy to apply.
Radio-opaque.
Resorbs at a faster rate than roots.
Does not produce any toxic effects on erupting permanent
successors.
43. Machida Y ,1983 considered calcium hydroxide- iodoform
mixture as the Ideal primary tooth filling material :
• Easy to apply
• Resorbs at a slightly faster rate than that of the roots
• Has no toxic effects on the permanent successor
• Is radioopaque
• Vitapex is particularly easy to use for primary incisors but less
practical for narrow canals of primary molars.
44. • Another preparation with similar composition –US –
ENDOFLAS ( Sanlor Laboratories, Columbia, South America)
• One condition for success of endoflas is the prevention of
microleakage.
• A permanent restoration should be placed as soon as possible
after clinical signs and symptoms of inflammation are
eliminated.

51. ROTARY ENDODONTICS-
• The rotary NiTi files are specially designed to provide superior
flexibility and unmatched efficacy.
• They enable clinicians to create uniformly tapered shapes in
anatomically difficult and curved canals.
• The latch type design of NiTi files allows the attachment to a
handpiece.
52. Advantages –
• Consistently dense fill due to uniform debridement .
• Allows for greater apical enlargement
• Prevent apical exposure
• Reduced instrumentation time
Disadvantages-
• Skill is required for beginners.
• Resorption of roots in primary teeth may cause a problem
• Problem of breakage of files in the canals
53. KEDO ENDO FILES
• Kedo-S rotary files is a single file system consisting of D1, E1
and U1 files.
• The total length of these files is 16 mm and the working area
(cutting flutes) 12 mm in length.
• D1 Kedo-S file is designed to prepare the narrower canals of
the primary teeth namely the mesiobuccal and mesiolingual
canals and E1 Kedo-S file is to prepare the wider canals
namely the distal and palatal canals of the primary molar
teeth. The U1 Kedo-S file is used to prepare the upper and
lower anterior primary teeth.
• Kedo-S rotary files are recommended to be used with an
endodontic motor in clockwise rotation at 300 (Revolutions
Per Minute) RPM and 2.2 N cm torque.
54.
55. Jeevanandan et al Clinical comparison of Kedo-S paediatric rotary files vs manual
instrumentation for root canal preparation in primary molars: adouble blinded
randomised clinical trial European Archives of Paediatric Dentistry. July 2018
Kedo-S exclusive paediatric rotary file system has shown
reduced instrumentation time and superior obturation quality
in primary molars. This system can be an effective alternative
in performing root canal treatment in primary molars with
great ease, thereby reducing the fatigue of dentists as well as
the children.
REVIEW OF LITERATURE
56. CRITERIA ACCEPTED FOR SUCCESSFUL
PULPECTOMY
-Given by Fuks et al
• Pulp treated primary teeth that have limited degree of
radiolucency or pathologic root resorption, in the absence of
clinical signs and symptoms.
• Check up in 6 months
57. Postoperative signs that indicate failure are
• Swelling of gingival margin
• Pus from gingival sulcus
• Patent fistula
• Excessive mobility
• Sensitivity to percussion
• Pain
• Development of radiolucency at the apex or furcation
• Premature root resorption
58. FOLLOW UP AFTER PRIMARY PULPECTOMY
• Study reported a 20% incidence crossbites or palatal eruption of
permanent incisors after pulpectomy on primary incisors.
• In the posterior teeth extraction was required in 22% of the cases because
of the ectopic eruption of the premolars or difficulty in exfoliation of the
treated primary molars- Coll JA,Sadrian R, 1996
• After normal physiologic resorption of the roots reaches the pulp
chamber, the large amount of ZOE present may impair the absorption and
lead to prolonged retention of the crown.
• Retention of filler was not related to success and caused no pathosis- Coll
JA, Sadrian R, 1993
59. TOOTH BUD OF DEVELOPING
SUCCEDANEOUS TOOTH
• Manipulation through the apex of the primary tooth –
contraindicated.
• Overextension of root canal instruments and filling materials –
avoided.
• Working length – 2-3mm short of radiographic apex.
• Hemorrhage after pulp removal –overextention.
60. • A total of 50 children, aged between 4 and 9 years, who were screened for
unilateral or bilateral carious deciduous molars were studied.
• Out of these, 15 children were randomly selected for endodontic
treatment. Obturation was done with a mixture of zinc oxide powder and
aloe vera gel. Clinical and radiographic evaluation was done after7 days, 1
month, 3 months, 6 months, and 9 months. Endodontic treatment using a
mixture of zinc oxide powder and aloe vera gel in primary teeth has
shown good clinical and radiographic success.

REVIEW OF LITERATURE
61. • Past inject exhibited the highest number of optimally filled canals, while
the highest number of underfilled canals were observed with bi-
directional spiral, and the highest number of overfilled canals were
observed with pressure syringe. A minimum number of voids was present
in canals filled with the Pastinject technique and pressure syringe.

Eur J Paediatr Dent. 2015 Jun;14(2):104-8.
REVIEW OF LITERATURE
62. • A total of 239 canals were prepared and obturated with zinc-oxide
eugenol paste. Obturation methods compared were: anesthetic syringe;
NaviTip syringe; pressure syringe; tuberculin syringe; lentulo spiral; and
packing with a plugger.
• Lentulo produced the best results in terms of length of obturation, while
NaviTip syringe produced the best results in controlling paste extrusion
from the apical foramen and having the smallest void size and lowest
number of voids.
Memarpour M Shahidi S, Meshki R. Comparison of different obturation
techniques for primary molars by digital radiography. Pediatr Dent. 2013
May-Jun;35(3):236-40.
REVIEW OF LITERATURE
63. • Clinical and radiographic evaluation suggested that teeth obturated with
ozonated oil-zinc oxide demonstrated good success rate (93.3 %) as
compared to zinc oxide eugenol (63.3 %). However, no statistically
significant variation (p = 0.408) was observed between the groups.
• Ozonated oil-ZnO demonstrated a good clinical and radiographic success
at 12 months follow-up and it can be considered as an alternative
obturating material in infected primary teeth.

: preliminary results European Archives of Paediatric Dentistry
June 2014, Volume 15, Issue 3, pp 191-195
REVIEW OF LITERATURE
64. • ZOE pulpectomy clearly delayed the root resorption of primary molars
without permanent successors , whereas resorption of primary molars
with Vitapex pulpectomy started at almost the same time as physiologic
resorption. Compared with Vitapex, ZOE was a more effective root canal
filling material in delaying the root resorption of primary molars.
Ron et al Effects of zinc oxide-eugenol and calcium hydroxide/ iodoform on delaying root
resorption in primary molars without successorsDental Materials Journal 2016; 33(4): 471–475
REVIEW OF LITERATURE
65. Ozone Therapy
• With the emerging trends ,ozone will soon be the first choice
in endodontics (non vital cases) and regenerative endodontics
.
• This therapy includes ozonated water, ozonated oil and
ozonated aloe vera.
• It is used along with file and as irrigant as it reaches all
anatomies.
66. • OZONE IN PEDODONTICS-
Dahnhardt et al studied treated open carious lesion with ozone in
anxious children. In fact the children who will not get treatment of a
very early stage of dental caries are most likely the ones who can be
the most anxious and not cooperative during routine dental
procedures.
With ozone treatment 94 percent of the children were treatable
and 93 percent lost their dental anxiety.
