Pulp Canal Obliteration Following Traumatic Dental Injury in an Upper Lateral Incisor: A Case Report with 3-year Follow-up.

Endodontic management of teeth afflicted with pulp canal obliteration faces a challenge due to the heightened risk of complications including excessive wear, perforation, and suboptimal chemomechanical preparation. This report aims to elucidate the clinical endodontic strategy employed in addressing pulp canal obliteration after a history of dental trauma and an associated periradicular lesion in an upper lateral incisor. A patient visited the dental emergency department with symptoms of apical swelling, acute persistent pain, and discoloration of tooth 22.

Hardened exogenous material after extrusion of calcium hydroxide with barium sulfate: Case study and histopathologic and laboratory analyses.

Background And Overview: Although calcium hydroxide (Ca[OH]) paste associated with barium sulfate (BaSO) is considered a safe agent, there is a lack of clinical research on its effects on periodontal and submucosal tissues. The aim of the authors was to report the effects of extrusion of Ultracal XS paste (Ultradent Products) in 2 cases. The authors also analyzed the paste constituents and compared them with the proportion reported by the manufacturer and the material extruded.
