In case of failed ischolar_main canal treatment endodontic retreatment of the ischolar_main canal system is necessary. The aim of the present study was to compare the gutta-percha removal with Protaper retreatment files (Dentsply Maillefer, Ballaigues, Switzerland), K3 (SybronEndo) and Hero Shapers (MicroMega, Besancon, France). Method: Thirty freshly extracted human single ischolar_mained teeth were prepared with ProTaper rotary instruments up to file F3 andfilled with 30 # GP cones and AH plus sealer. The teeth were then stored for 1 week. The teeth were divide into 3 retreatment groups (n=10). The gutta-percha was removed using Protaper retreatment files, K3 and Hero Shapers. Teeth were then evaluated using radiographs. Results: Comparing the ratio between clean canals Protaper and K3 showed better debris removal as compared to Hero shaper. But no significance difference was found.Keywords

The determination of working length in one of the most important steps in ischolar_main canal treatment. Failure in determining the correct working length increases the failure probability of RCT. The anatomic apical constriction is located approximately 0.5-1 mm short of major foramen and this makes it difficult to accurately localize the foramen and constriction radiographically. Electronic apex locators are a boon in locating anatomic apex. However it requires intensive practical exercises, before performing endodontic procedures on patients for the first time. The major challenge is to simulate a condition that helps students to transfer their knowledge acquired from pre-clinical labs to the clinical setups. The aim of this study is to develop an accurate, reliable endodontic teaching model which enables the use of EAIs to allow accurate evaluation of endodontic working length.Keywords

From the past several years, there have been numerous studies that describe the morphology of teeth, including mandibular first molars. This tooth presents a high rate of intercanals and anastomosis, mainly in the apical 5 mm, which presents a clinical challenge in terms of cleaning and disinfection. A missed canal can lead to failure of endodontic therapy. Therefore every effort must be made to locate additional canals if any. This case report shows a variation in conventional anatomy in mandibular first molars.Keywords
