A comprehensive overview of the field of endodontics, focusing on the anatomy, pathology, diagnosis, and treatment of diseases affecting the dental pulp and periapical tissues. The sources detail the biological processes within the tooth, such as dentin formation and pulpal inflammation, alongside the etiology and pathogenesis of conditions like pulpitis and apical periodontitis. Much of the material is dedicated to clinical procedures and techniques, including the principles of cavity preparation, pulp capping, pulpectomy, root canal instrumentation, obturation methods (like lateral condensation and warm gutta-percha), and emergency treatments for pain, emphasizing the importance of a bacteria-tight seal and the effective use of antimicrobial medicaments like calcium hydroxide. Finally, the text addresses complications, retreatment strategies, and the prognosis of endodontic therapy, underscoring that technical quality and tissue-compatible materials are crucial for successful outcomes.
