Management of endodontic perforations

L R Martin, B Gilbert, A W Dickerson

    Oral Surgery, Oral Medicine, and Oral Pathology
    |December 1, 1982
    PubMed
    Summary

    Aseptic and timely treatment improves outcomes for molar pulp chamber perforations. Root canal perforations with minimal unfilled space also have a good prognosis, unlike lingual perforations requiring surgery.

    Area of Science:

    • Endodontic therapy
    • Dental trauma management

    Background:

    • Endodontic perforations can compromise treatment success.
    • Various factors influence the prognosis of endodontic perforations.

    Observation:

    • Perforations in the floor of molar pulp chambers have an improved prognosis with prompt, aseptic management.
    • Root canal perforations in the apical third, leaving 2 mm or less of unfilled root canal space, generally have a good prognosis.
    • Perforations on the lingual surface, regardless of cause (mechanical or resorptive), have a poor prognosis if surgical intervention is needed.

    Findings:

    • Timely and aseptic treatment is crucial for favorable outcomes in pulp chamber floor perforations.
    • Limited unfilled root canal space post-perforation in the apical third correlates with a good prognosis.
    • Lingual perforations necessitating surgery present a poor prognostic indicator.

    Implications:

    • Early and appropriate management strategies are key to improving endodontic perforation prognosis.
    • Understanding perforation location and etiology aids in predicting treatment success.
    • Calcium hydroxide shows promise for treating endodontic perforations, warranting further investigation.
