The root and root canal morphology of the human mandibular second premolar: A literature review
TL;DR: The objective was to review thoroughly the literature of the root and root canal morphology of the human Mandibular second premolar and compare the results with the mandibular first premolar to demonstrate the extreme range of variation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Retrospective evaluation of surgical endodontic treatment: traditional versus modern technique.
TL;DR: Modern surgical endodontic treatment using operative microscope and ultrasonic tips significantly improves the outcome of the therapy compared to the traditional technique, and complete healing rate for the teeth treated with the modern technique was significantly higher.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of Medications for Root Canal Treatment on Bonding to Root Canal Dentin
TL;DR: Chlorhexidine is an appropriate irrigant solution for root canal treatment before adhesive post core applications and reduces bond strength to root canal dentin significantly.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effectiveness of manual and mechanical instrumentation for the retreatment of three different root canal filling materials.
TL;DR: All instruments left remnants of filling material and debris on the root canal walls irrespective of the root filling material used, and both the engine-driven NiTi rotary systems proved to be safe and fast devices for the removal of endodontic filling material.

Mineral trioxide aggregate pulpotomies : A case series outcomes assessment
TL;DR: MTA may be useful as a substitute for calcium hydroxide in pulpotomy procedures, however, further research is required to clarify this conclusion.
