Abstract

This article has no abstract. The first 100 words appear below:
 A 34-year-old male attended with mild pain during mastication and slight mobility on the upper left lateral incisor tooth for 2 months. He gave the history of trauma on the offending tooth 3 years ago and for this he visited to a local dentist 2 weeks ago but did not get any relief after treatment. On clinical examination, the tooth was non vital, tender to percussion with 2 degree mobility, not associated with any swelling and discharge. Pre-operative radiograph revealed obliteration of pulp chamber, area of rarefaction associated near the apex of upper left lateral incisor tooth, cervical radiolucency indicating the loss of periodontal structures and about 5 mm separated fragment of instrument in the coronal third of the root canal.

Highlights

  • Dr Sageer Ahmed (MS Resident): A 34-year-old male attended with mild pain during mastication and slight mobility on the upper left lateral incisor tooth for 2 months

  • Dr Mozammal Hossain (Associate Professor): Preoperative radiograph (Figure 1A) revealed obliteration of pulp chamber, area of rarefaction associated near the apex of upper left lateral incisor tooth, cervical radiolucency indicating the loss of periodontal structures and about 5 mm separated fragment of instrument in the coronal third of the root canal

  • It would seem appropriate that the optimum management option was the removal of the fragment so that cleaning and shaping of the root canal system could be completed effectively to eliminate microorganisms
