Subject: [roots] MTA and Fuji resorpsion repair FAILING
This is an endo done on a cuspid about 12 years ago. I saw her a couple years later and
found a large defect from apparent resorpsion. I flapped it, found no soft dentine,
placed a glass ionomer ( I did not know about MTA then) and she left for a couple years.
I then a few years later found a pocket hat formed and then placed MTA Gray and Fuji 9 over that.
This is a couple years after that (12 years after the endo. The photo is really 'gross'
but her smile doesn't show it -thank God-. Advised implant. - Alan Cady
PS I did not re treat the endo because of the large defect, but that , although a mistake,
seems to be in significant to the other problems here.
Alan , the cervical lesions in the canines generally come to the dental clinic at a later stage
mainly due to the fact that they are generally above the smile line and don't show during smiling
and that is all what an ignorant patient needs to postpone his visit .- Sachin
