So we ended up with one endo less...:-) Upon access, 11 smelled like an dirty ditch. The foramen was a size # 70, so I was a bit in doubt as to whether or not using MTA. I decided to go resilon. Bleaching with sodium perborate, barrier of GIC, and composite BU. BTW, I love the new fat Dovgans (2,2), they are ideal for e.g. application of sodium perborate. - Marga
Marga, Single cone - really appropriate for this "skinny" canal.... We discussed this before, as I can see your are well above the CEJ so the barrier doesn't seem to have any clinical reason - right ? Superb result and endo ! How do you place Sodium Perborate ? - Thomas Thomas, Yes, we have discussed this before, and I use a GIC barrier to protect the root canal filling from the sodium perborate, no other reason. I place the material with a disposable Dovgan carrier, These are cheap carriers, there not meant to be discarded after a single use, but they will last at least 20 times or more. At least, that's my experience. I find it another great product from Joey. On the site, you'll see they come in 3 sizes, but there is a fatter one, the 2,2, which is very nice for applying sodium perborate. Apply, and condense it with pluggers and fat paper points. - Marga
