Chapte r 1
O VERVIEW 1.1 Characte ristics of root canal system
1.1.2 Anatomical characte ristics of the first and second maxillary molars
1.1.2.1 First maxillary molars: Most First maxillary molars teeth
have three separate teeth The mesiobuccal root is the most complicated root on the arch, with a wide cross section in the
Trang 5buccolingual dimension, or 2 root canal The distobuccal root and palatal root mainly has 1 canal
1.1.2.2 Se cond maxillary molars: Anatomical structure of second
maxillary molars is similar t o First maxillary molars but t he crowns are not square and big.Their roots are relatively close together or root fusion can be seen They generally are shorter than the roots of the first molar and not as curved Four canals are less likely
to be present in the second maxillary molar than in the first maxillary molars The ratio of Second mesiobuccal canal is not as high as First maxillary molars
1.2 Pulpal disease
1.2.1 Diagnosis of pulpal disease: The diagnosis is based on all
necessary information including medical and dental history, funct ional and physical symptoms, X-ray, assessment of periodontal status and clinical examination.According to the American Associat ion of Endodontic (2008), the terms that diagnose pulpal disease in clinical include: Reversible Pulpitis (acute, chronic), irreversible Pulpitis (acute, chronic), Pulp Necrosis (no infection, infection), Previously Treated, Previously Initiated T herapy Clinical terms for Periapical disease diagnosis: Symptomatic Apical Periodontitis, Asymptomatic Apical Periodontitis, Acute Apical Abscess, Chronic Apical Abscess
1.2.2 Root canal tre atment
1.2.2.1 Determine and maintain working length, working width during cleaning, shaping and obturatingroot canal systems
Working length: According to Johnson W et al., There are more than
50% of root canals without apical constriction, especially with apical
Trang 6disease, so t hat there is uniformity in the treatment limit of the apical foramen, terminatingthe preparation is usually chosen t o be 0.5 to 1
mm short of the radiographic apex
Working width - size and root canal taper at the end of the cleaning
and shapingroot canal: due to t he initial size of the root canal, the cleaning and shaping and obturating technique root canal system
1.2.2.2 Cleaning and shaping root canal system
Cleaning root canal system: the common option is a combination of
sodium hypochlorite and ethylene diamine tetra acetic acid (EDT A)
To clean the complete root canal system, especially at the apical third of the root canal, the lateral and auxiliary canal, or the C- shaped canal, endodontic ultrasound systems are used widely Calcium hydroxide is widely used place in root canal between appointments due to its ability to dissolve organic tissue, kill bacteria, detoxify and act as a slow-release substance due to its low solubility in water
Shaping root canal system : the most popular shaping method today is
the use of a rotating NiT ifile
1.2.2.3 Obturatingroot canal system: The obturation is aim to seal
the entire root canal system in three dimensional to prevent the invasion of microorganisms from t he mouth or the area around the teeth into the root canal system
Thermafil technique: A technique developed by Johnson W.B
Thermafil was commercialized in the early 1990s, with Gutt aPercha (GP) α phase covering hard plastic core but still ensuring flexibility
Α phase GP is warmed by a oven, put into root canal with the core in the center to help compress the soft GP flowing into the root
Trang 7canalsystem Gencoglu N et al assessed that the number of lat eral root canal found that more lateral canal sealed with T hermafil, followed by System B / Obtura, Horizontal, Microseal, Quick-Fill, Soft core Samadi F et al (2014) found that root canal Thermafil technique produces a higher percentage of GP in root canal, creating
a more homogeneous obturat ing block than warm GP compacting or cold GP horizontal compaction at apical third of root s According to Zogheib C et al., Thermafil technique give adequate obturationwithoutvoids and gaps in the obturatedroot canals
1.2.3 Assess the re sults of root canal treatment
1.2.3.1 Asse ssment of root canal obturating quality: In addition to
clinical evaluat ion, the most necessary factor is to evaluate t he root canal obturating results in terms of length, shape and density Root canal obturating must seal into the root canal walls, the obturatingmaterial must be tightly compressed, closed and sealed in the shape of root canals into a homogeneous GP block
1.2.3.2 Follow u p afte r tre atment: to maintain healthy or monitor
wound healing of apical area Success aft er t he root canal treatment
is that there are no clinical and radiographs signs of periapical lesions
1.3 Den tal radiography
1.3.1 PeriapicalRadiographs:The film is the most popular filmin
the dental treatment and a useful t ool to make a diagnosis, planning, and evaluate the outcome following endodontic treatment it has low cost; low radiation compares to the other x-ray techniques However, it can cause distortion, overlap and miss images The images can only be seen in the mesial and distal direction
Trang 81.3.2 Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT):The significant
of advanced diagnosis tool such as CBCT over the traditional methods has been proven T his advance technique assists dental practitioner to identify root morphology, number of canals and other factors which can affect the final outcome of the treatment
Images can be displayed and investigat ed in the three orthogonal planes, axial, sagittal, and coronal simultaneously In CBCT film, sagittal, and coronal slices are made all along the length of the root, axialslices are perpendicular to the axis of the root with the thickness
of the slice usually 1mm The axial section shows the shape, the number of the root, the root canal, which is the most advantage of CBCT compared to periapical films Coronal slices shows the root canal morphology, the root canal curvature in the bucal - langualdirection Sagitalslices shows root canal images in mesial - distal direction.In the root canal treatment, the use of small field CBCT images to show a few teeth and the surrounding structure is suitable for minimizing radiation dose while good image quality, specific distinction structures such as enamel, dentin, root cavity, alveolar bone and cortical bone, tooth anatomical structure, root canal system characteristics, pathological image of root, etc According to Zheng et al, Zhang R and cs, CBCT effect ive in studying the external and internal morphology of the teeth, helping to optimize the results of root canal treatment A study by Abubara et al (2012) showed that CBCT determined the Second mesiobuccal canal number compared to the periapical film, clearly showing that untreated root canals.Research by many authors such as Yoshioka T
et al., Anita A et al., Estrela et al., Venskutonis T et al., showed
Trang 9that CBCT film was more sensitive, identifying lesions accurately than the periapical film, the difference is more pronounced in the molars According to Estrela et al, CBCT film accurately assesses the curvature of the canals, helping to minimize errors and fractures during pulp treatment
