Root canal filling
• Power driven - lentulo
Slow rpm (do 1000/min), in action when pull out
• Hand - cold and warm techniques Cold techniques:
- Single cone technique
- Lateral compaction
Warm techniques: warm lateral compaction, vertical compaction, injection and others.
Lentulo
Ideal root canal filling (Grossman 1988)
1. Easy mixing
2. Sufficient working time
3. Good seal
4. X- ray contrast
5. Easy removal
6. No shrinkage
7. Long term volume stability
8. No bacterial growing
9. No permeability for fluids
10. Biocompatibility

Complications of endodontic
treatment
Local Regional Systemic
Zipping a elbow
Local complications
Reasons
Insufficient irrigation and recapitulation
Loss of the working length
Solution
Repeated careful instrumentation with a thin instrument
Irrigation is not effective in this c&se111
Ledging
Reasons
The instrument is not bended in advance!
No control of the WL
No recapitulationLoss of the WL
Solution
The instrument must be bended in advance
Careful but complete rotation
Finishing with the fine filing
No NiTi!!!
Ledging
Zipping a Elbow
The instrument is not bended in advance!
Rotation in curved canals
Reasons
Bad orientation in morphology - no diagnostic Instruments are nod bended Rotary NiTi with a big taper
>. Oblast isthmu
Stripping
Bend the instrument and eventually blunt it!
Insufficient coronal flaring
Old root canal instrument
Aggresive force
Incorrect movement of the root canal instrument
Solution
Enlargement of the root canal till the instrument
Ultrasound tips
Rotating root canal instrument - caution!
Bypass
Leaving in
Surgical treatment
Fractured instrument
