Root canal retreatment with a fractured instrument and zirconia crown

Root canal retreatment with a fractured instrument and zirconia crown
Complaints:
Tooth pain after previous endodontic treatment performed at another clinic.
Diagnosis:
Apical periodontitis of tooth 4.6.
Treatment:
Following comprehensive diagnostics (CT scan and periapical X-ray), root canal retreatment was performed under STA computer-assisted local anesthesia. Using a Leica M320 operating microscope, the fractured instrument was bypassed with the ByPass technique, followed by mechanical and chemical preparation of the canals and three-dimensional obturation with warm gutta-percha. The tooth was restored with Estelite Asteria composite and the treatment was completed with a full-contour zirconia crown fabricated using CAD/CAM technology.

In this clinical case, the patient presented with tooth pain following previous endodontic treatment performed at another dental clinic.

The examination revealed apical periodontitis of tooth 4.6 and a fractured instrument fragment inside one of the root canals.

For treatment planning, a CBCT scan and a periapical X-ray were performed.

Using a Leica M320 dental microscope, root canal retreatment was carried out, including bypassing the fractured instrument with the ByPass technique, followed by mechanical and chemical canal preparation.

After obturation with warm gutta-percha, the tooth was restored with Estelite Asteria composite material and a full-contour zirconia crown fabricated using CAD/CAM technology.

Result:

The inflammatory process has been eliminated, the tooth preserved, and chewing function restored.
