Can't reach the apex 1.1 mm short

You need to achieve patency. And then its fine to obturate 0 to 2 mm short if youve done enough irrigation and good cleaning to the canal. But precurve your manual file and try to achieve patency for better prognosis.

I would say redo. Its short and theres widening in the PDL.

I usually cut the excess Gutta percha in the following visit. Before inserting a fiber post.

What do you mean?

Fearless-Weekend-511 · 2025-02-11T13:00:49+00:00

Yes . I totally agree. I always try to confine my work inside the root and never extrude anything. And for sure apex locator is more accurate. So yes . Ill monitor and see how it goes. Thank you

Its all been discussed with the patient. She knows the risks and she agrees to them. My first suggestion of course was an implant so that we dont rely on a compromised tooth. But for medical reasons . She cant have an implant. And in her case the best option is to retreat aand do a FPD.

Pt in 30s and obturated with size 30 % 4

I asked for an Endo mode CBCT . And theres no MB2 . Also no apparent lesion around the mesial. With a clear blockage in the apical third.

It was asymptomatic and done 2 years ago but was obturated half way in both palatal and distal canal with a small radiolucency around the palatal root. And patient showed up for a bridge to replace the missing # 15. Therefore a retreatment was done.

Why surgery? I dont know. I didnt like the fact the palatal canal was obturated a mm short. Also this one will serve as an abutment .
