Click below for Download


        




HISTORICAL REVIEW
ž 1918 Custer- use of electric current for working length
ž 1942 Suzuki- conducted scientific study of apex locator
ž 1960 Sunada- found electrical resistance between periodontium & oral mucous membrane
ž 1969 Inove- significant contribution in evolution of EAL with his reports on Sono-Explorer
ž 1996 McDonald & Pratten- done experiments in cadaver

CLASSIFICATION OF ELECTRONIC APEX LOCATOR
ž By McDonald- depends on:
₋                Type of current flow
₋                Opposition to current flow
₋                Number of frequencies involved
·       Ist generation apex locator
·       IInd generation apex locator
·       IIIrd generation apex locator
·       IVrth generation apex locator

CONTENTS


INTRODUCTION

     The use of ultrasonics or ultrasonic  instrumentation was first introduced to dentistry for cavity preparations using an abrasive slurry .Although the technique received favorable reviews,it never became popular ,because it had to compete with the much more effective and convenient high-speed handpiece.

             However,a different application was introduced in 1955, when Zinner reported on the use of an ultrasonic instrument  to remove deposits  from the tooth surface. This was  improved upon by Johnson and Wilson ,and the  ultrasonic scaler  became an established tool in the removal of dental calculus and plaque. The concept to using Ultrasonic in endodontics was first introduced by Richman in 1957.  However, it was not until Martinetal ,demonstrated the ability of ultrasonically activated K-type files to cut  dentin that this application found common use in the preparation of rootcanals before  filling and obturation. The term endosonics  was coined by  Martin and Cunningham  and was defined as the ultrasonic and synergistic system of rootcanal instrumentation and disinfection.

CONTENTS


                       INTRODUCTION
  • In the past injured/diseased teeth were indicated for extraction
  • Now the trend has been changed and the teeth can be saved by endodontic treatment because clinician and  general population is becoming more aware of the importance of natural teeth
  • Once a thorough examination has determined that an endodontic problem exists, the process of case selection begins.
  • The dentist must determine

  1.     whether treatment is indicated for this patient
  2.      what treatment will best serve the patient
  3.             whether  the patient would be best served by being referred to a specialist or another practitioner.

INTRODUCTION
        
                                    “ The lack of proper equipment “ is a reason often given by the dentist who do not practice RCT and it well might be not only are special instrument imperative for endodontic therapy. But a special arrangement of these instrument is necessary.

                                     Impractical, inefficient scuring  around the office to gather collection of unsterile ill-adapted equipment completely discourages the practitioner from endodontic therapy. These problems may be solved by procuring the correct equipment and supplies; by packaging the hand equipment into sterilized towel kits, into canisters, or on prearranged trays; and finally, by storing the small endodontic instruments in an organized, compartmentalized instrument case.



Endodontic armamentatium
                             Although most instruments used in general dentition also can be used for endodontic therapy. In addition, many many different types of instrument have been designed for procedures performed inside pulp space.
             Preparation for treatment begins with selection of the armamentarium for routine endodontic patient care.
   Instruments used for every patient should be assembled and sterilized before use.
   list below gives typical armamentarium that can be customized for the individual practitioner

CONTENTS


INTRA CANAL MEDICATIONS

Medicaments are effective antimicrobial agents.With the number of microorganisms reduced by irrigation and instrumentation ,the medicament destroys those remaining and limits the growth of any new arrivals
Ideal requirements
     According to the Grossman
1.            It should be effective antimicrobial agent
2.            Should be nonirritating to the periradicular tissues
3.            Should be stable in solution
4.            Should have a prolonged antimicrobial effect
5.            Should be active in the presence of blood, serum and protein derivatives of tissues
6.            It should not stain tooth structure
7.            It should not induce a cell mediated immune response

CONTENTS


  IRRIGATION

        Irrigation serves as a physical flush to remove debris as well as serving as a antibacterial agent ,tissue solvent and lubricant.Some are effective in removal of the smear layer .It is highly recommended that canal always be instrumented while containing an irrigant or lubricating agent 
Requirements of a ideal irrigant
1.          Should be good tissue or debris solvent
2.          Should have low toxicity
3.          Should have low surface tension to promote flow into inaccessible areas
4.          Should be biocompatible
5.          Should be a lubricant
6.          Should have antimicrobial properties
7.          Should be capable of removing the smear layer

CONTENTS


INTRODUCTION
The concept of single visit endodontics started at least 100 years back . Initiating and completing an endodontic treatment in one appointment  has always been  surrounded by controversy
         The majority of endodontists thought that performing treatment in this manner would  cause more  postoperative pain than if performed in multiple appointment
DEFINITION
Single visit endodontics implies to cleaning , shaping and disinfection of a root canal system followed by obturation of the root canal at the same appointment
FACTORS  FOR NOT PERFORMING SVE
  1. Doubt of post operative pain
  2. Fear of failure of the endodontic therapy
  3. Discomfort to patient because  he or she has to keep the mouth open for a long period of time
  4. Lack of time
  5. Lack of experience and equipment
