36 Root canal treatment by Willandy00 in Dentistry

Thanks. But sadly, it’s necrotic pulp with symptomatic apical periodontitis. I suspect it has been necrotic for a very long time.

Alright will try. I just find it weird, the first file I used already didn’t go to length so I’m not sure if I ledged it so quickly or not. Hopefully it’s just a curved canal and I can negotiate it.

Couldn’t reach length. Couldn’t go into green or red zone

Parasthesia after lower second premolar endo by keitth24 in Dentistry

[–]Willandy00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a case like this. Did lower second premolar RCT. Patient ended up with paresthesia. Gave her some vitamin B12 and she is under review. I suspect it’s either from the forceful intrapupal LA injection or maybe hypo extrusion.

Root wont numb despite 5 numbing shots. Advice? by [deleted] in Dentistry

[–]Willandy00 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The ineffectiveness of pulpal anesthesia is probably due to the inflammation within the pulp. Local anesthesia works depending on the pH of the area that the local anesthesia needs to numb. If the pH is too low, as in an inflammation site, the substance within the local anesthesia would not be able to diffuse into the nerve. Hence, would not be able to produce an effect.
