The fundamental goal of endodontic therapy is to preserve the vitality of pulp tissue and predictably disinfect the pulp space in cases of infection. This evidence based presentation will discuss the challenges posed by root canal infections and clinical protocols in overcoming them. Clinical challenges in routine primary and retreatment cases with discussed and methods to achieve predictable disinfection would be highlighted.
Objectives
- Understanding the primary causes of endodontic failures.
- Irrigation dynamics and protocols for root canal disinfection.
- Role of intracanal medicaments in contemporary endodontics
