Patient Background

The patient reported pain and food lodgement in the lower right second premolar. No significant medical history. Due to a busy schedule, he chose Magnum Clinic for quick, expert care. The goal was to relieve pain & save the tooth via endodontic treatment.

Diagnosis & Treatment Plan

Oral evaluation and radiographs showed deep caries involving the pulp and periapical inflammation and percussion tenderness.The diagnosis was pulpitis and it was irreversible.Orthograde root canal therapy was to be done with no operation, and restoration was to be done using a durable zirconia crown.

Procedure Details

The treatment was initiated by the use of topical anesthesia followed by the use of local anesthetic using sterilised dental syringe. A rubber dam was used to isolate the tooth to create a sterile field. Due to the presence of a calcified pulp chamber and small canals, the access cavity was meticulously prepared during a first visit of 60 minutes, which involved the debridement of the nerve as well as partial biomechanical preparation.

Before the procedure, all the vital signs were observed. The cleaning and shaping of canals with rotary instruments were guided by the microscope magnification during later visits. After the obturation of the canals, a digital impression was made to fabricate the crowns. The final visit consisted of cementing a zirconia crown to restore the functionality and esthetics of the teeth.

Treatment Timeline

  • Day 1- consultation which includes the IOPAR followed by the initiation of the root canal treatment( access cavity preparation , partial BMP and placement of an intracanal medicament)
  • Day 2 - completion of Biomechanical preparation of tooth #14 followed by obturation
  • Day 3 - measurement of the crown ( zirconia crown preparation )
  • Day 4 - cementation of crown with post delivery instructions

Outcome & Follow-up

The patient experienced immediate pain relief after the initial visit. Follow-ups confirmed healing, pain-free function, and proper crown fit. Biannual dental check-ups were recommended to monitor the treated tooth and overall oral health.
