Regenerative endodontic therapy (RET) offers a novel treatment option for developing teeth with pulp necrosis. In the current instance, RET was used to treat an immature mandibular permanent first molar that had been identified with irreversible pulpitis. The root canals were treated with triple antibiotic paste (TAP) and 1.5% sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) irrigation. TAP was removed, and 17% ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) was used to treat the root canals during the second visit. As a scaffold, Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) was applied. Mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) was applied over PRF, and composite resin was used to repair the teeth. Radiographs taken from the posterior were utilized to assess the healing. The teeth displayed no signs of pain and healing after the six-month follow-up periods, and pulp sensibility tests using a cold and electric pulp tester produced no results. Conservative treatment options should be considered to save immature permanent teeth and assist in the regeneration of the root apex.

Department of Endodontics, Beijing Stomatological Hospital, Capital Medical University, Tian Tan Xi Li No.4, Beijing, 100050, China.
Background: To evaluate the prevalence and characteristics of taurodontism in northern China by using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) and assisting the treatment.
Methods: The study involved CBCT scans of 8112 teeth from 507 participants of northern China, comprising 217 males and 290 females aged 18 to 60. Analysis was conducted using Shifman and Chanannel's criteria to assess the prevalence and attributes of taurodontism, examining differences based on tooth position (maxilla and mandible) as well as gender (P < 0.

Background: The fracture of an endodontic instrument within the root canal system can occur during root canal therapy, complicating thorough cleaning and shaping. Consequently, managing the broken fragment becomes crucial.
Methods: Eighty Nickel-titanium (NiTi) #20 K-files (Mani, Tochigi, Japan) were cut 8 mm from the tip, fixed into a corkboard, and classified into five groups (n = 14 each).

Department of Dentomaxillofacial Radiology, Faculty of Dentistry, İstanbul Medipol University, İstanbul, Turkey.
Background: This retrospective study aims to characterise the root canal morphology of maxillary and mandibular second molars using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). The number of roots and canal configurations were evaluated using both the Vertucci and Benjamı´n Brisen˜ o Marroquı´n classification systems.
Methods: A total of 1084 second molar images (523 maxillary; 266 right and 257 left side and 561 mandibular; 285 right and 276 left side) were evaluated from 320 CBCT scans analyzed for the Turkish subpopulation.

Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the number of roots and type of root canals in maxillary first and second premolars within a selected Korean population utilizing cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). Additionally, it sought to investigate potential differences in these features according to sex and tooth type.
Materials And Methods: CBCT images of 585 maxillary first premolars and 578 maxillary second premolars from 303 patients were retrospectively reviewed.

Department of Restorative Dental Sciences, College of Dentistry, Jazan University, Jazan, Saudi Arabia.
BACKGROUND This cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) endodontics study aimed to compare the canal-centering ability and canal transportation of Edgefile X7 and HyFlex EDM files in moderately curved mesiobuccal (MB) root canals of 30 mandibular first permanent molar teeth. MATERIAL AND METHODS Thirty permanent mandibular first molars with 10° and 24° of mesial root curvature were selected and scanned with CBCT. Two experimental groups of 15 each were made: group I: HyFlex EDM, and group II: Edgefile X7.
