Retreatment



Each pulp is unique!

This case you referred to me with buccal discharging sinus. Mesial canals were short, distal canal underprepared and peri-apical lesions associated with both roots. Upon re-entry to the pulp chamber space, two distal canals were located, both orifices close to each other.

After dressing with calcium hydroxide for two weeks, buccal sinus was closed and canals were obturated. Gutta percha extruded slightly from the disto-lingual canal, but I'm happy with this case. Will review in three months for radiographic evidence of healing.
