Journal of Endodontics
|August 1, 1989
Summary
This case study details successful nonsurgical and surgical root canal therapy for dens invaginatus in a maxillary lateral incisor. Radiographic healing was confirmed at a two-year follow-up, offering insights for future dental treatments.
Area of Science:
- Endodontics
- Dental Morphology
Background:
- Dens invaginatus presents diverse and intricate dental anomalies.
- This condition necessitates specialized endodontic treatment approaches.
Observation:
- A permanent maxillary lateral incisor diagnosed with dens invaginatus was treated.
- Both nonsurgical and surgical endodontic procedures were employed.
Findings:
- The treated tooth demonstrated satisfactory radiographic healing.
- Healing was confirmed during the two-year follow-up appointment.
Implications:
- This case highlights successful management of complex dens invaginatus.
- Findings provide valuable guidance for future endodontic treatment strategies in similar cases.
