A comprehensive overview of endodontology, detailing the diagnosis and treatment of various dental conditions. It thoroughly explains the detection of caries, including the use of clinical examination, bitewing radiographs, and newer technologies like fiberoptic transillumination (FOTI) and digital radiography. A major focus is placed on root canal treatment, covering everything from determining the accurate working length using instruments and radiography to the complex anatomy of the root canal system, including lateral canals and apical deltas. Furthermore, the text examines techniques and materials for canal preparation, such as nickel-titanium (Ni-Ti) files and ultrasonic instruments, as well as obturation methods, particularly lateral condensation and the use of sealers and calcium hydroxide interim dressings. Finally, the source addresses advanced procedures like endodontic microsurgery for failed treatments, the management of dental trauma such as crown-root fractures, and endodontic care in the deciduous dentition.
