Regenerative endodontics has 3 critical steps: adequate disinfection of the root canal system, induction of bleeding through overinstrumentation to create a scaffold for stem cells, and coronal sealing of the blood clot with a biocompatible material, such as mineral trioxide aggregate. The procedure is applied in two visits as follows: [50]
On the other hand, the root canal filling material may be extruded from the apex leading to other complications. [citation needed] The X-ray in the right margin shows two adjacent teeth that had received bad root canal therapy. The root canal filling material (3, 4, and 10) does not extend to the end of the tooth roots (5, 6 and 11).
Not only does endodontics involve treatment when a dental pulp is present, but also includes preserving teeth which have failed to respond to non-surgical endodontic treatment, or for teeth that have developed new lesions, e.g., when root canal re-treatment is required, or periradicular surgery.
A dental laser is a type of laser designed specifically for use in oral surgery or dentistry. In the United States , the use of lasers on the gums was first approved by the Food and Drug Administration in the early 1990s, and use on hard tissue like teeth or the bone of the mandible gained approval in 1996.

The response of both the patients and dentists have been significant since the bioceramics were introduced to endodontics. The benefits that the practitioners gain with using bioceramic material are the physical properties, such as biocompatibility, anti-bacterial effect, non-toxic and no shrinkage nor expansion, chemical properties such as stability within the biological environment, does not ...
Herbert Schilder (8 September 1928 [1] in Brooklyn, New York – 25 January 2006 in Newton, Massachusetts) [2] was a dental surgeon.Schilder is best known for the improvements he made to root canal therapies (endodontic therapy) in the 1960s when he taught at the Boston University School of Dental Medicine.
