Orthodontic Extrusion of Subgingivally Fractured Lateral Incisor and Canine Using Gold Post: A Case Report: 1 Year Follow-Up.

The case report describes a multidisciplinary approach using orthodontic forced eruption to facilitate prosthetic restoration of a maxillary permanent lateral incisor and canine with poor restorability for a young patient. Restoration after orthodontic eruption presents a more conservative treatment choice in young patients compared with prosthetic restoration after extraction. On examination, the patient had root stumps in the region of 22 and 23.

Comparative Evaluation of the Incidence of Dentin Microcracks Following Biomechanical Preparation Using Four Different Nickel-Titanium Rotary File Systems: An In Vitro Study.

Introduction: Biomechanical preparation has gotten easier over time with the development of nickel-titanium (NiTi) rotary instruments. Despite their benefits, research has shown that these files frequently result in microcracks in the root canal dentin, which can fracture the roots. Such mishaps should be prevented, as they compromise the integrity of the root and reduce the long-term survival of endodontically treated teeth.
