Root canal retreatment for chronic apical periodontitis

Root canal retreatment for chronic apical periodontitis
Complaints:
Pain in the tooth when chewing hard food.
Diagnosis:
Chronic apical periodontitis of tooth 1.6.
Treatment:
Before treatment, professional dental cleaning and a CBCT scan were performed. Endodontic treatment was carried out under local STA computer-assisted anesthesia with rubber dam isolation. The old filling, remnants of filling material, and carious tooth tissue were removed. Using a Leica M320 dental microscope, root canal retreatment was performed, including mechanical and chemical canal preparation with NiC and SOCO instruments to the physiological apex. After irrigation, the root canals were hermetically sealed using the warm gutta-percha 3D obturation technique, and the tooth was restored with Estelite Asteria composite material.

In this clinical case, the patient presented with pain in the tooth when chewing hard food.
