Vertical root fracture (VRF) is a common reason for the extraction of root filled teeth. The
accurate diagnosis of VRF may be challenging due to the absence of clinical signs, whilst …

The technical execution of root canal treatment procedures demands a thorough
understanding and knowledge of root and canal anatomy. Over the decades, and with the …

The purpose of this narrative review was to discuss the scientific milestones that led to the
current understanding of the root dentinal microcrack phenomenon based on the interplay …

Introduction This study assessed the effect of intentional foraminal enlargement on the
foramen and the apical root canal morphology. Method Sixty mesial roots of mandibular …

Objectives This study was aimed at evaluating the clinical and radiological outcomes of
novel dynamic navigation (DN)–aided endodontic microsurgery (EMS), with an analysis of …

Introduction This retrospective cohort study aimed to estimate the success rate (SR) of
primary root canal treatment on teeth with a diagnosis of pulp necrosis (PN) and …

The aim of this study was to evaluate the foraminal enlargement and its influence on
microcrack formation and apical transportation in root canals with apical curvature. Eighteen …

Introduction This study aimed to compare root dentinal microcrack formation after root canal
shaping using rotary, reciprocating, and adaptive instruments at different working lengths …

This experimental anatomic study aimed to investigate the correlations between the mesio-
vestibular canal (MB1) and the second mesio-vestibular canal (MB2) of the mesio-vestibular …

Background. Root canal preparation with nickel-titanium (NiTi) instruments may lead to the
formation of microcracks in the root canal wall. Vertical root fractures may initiate from …
