The Use Of Ultrasonic Technology in Endosugrical proceders

Abstract

A 50 years old patient came to MSA clinics with a swelling related to upper right lateral incisor tooth. After clinical and radiographic examination, a radiolucent lesion surrounding an overfilled canal by 3 mm was detected. Treatment plan was to perform apicectomy, and prepare the root canal for an MTA filling. Two workshops were held, one was on sheep head for surgical flap and suturing under supervision of Dr. Mohamed Hamdy, Ass. Lecturer of Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery. The 2nd one was on extracted teeth for ultrasonic tooth preparation under supervision of Dr. Hussein Shokry, Ass. Lecturer of endodontics. The surgical procedure, and MTA retrograde filling were then performed for the case.
