40 plus year old USC Root canal with Silver points and laterally condensed gutta percha and a Gold Onlay.

Symptomatic Microleakage?

Would you call this success depends on Who defines it and How?

Peeled through access carefully to avoid inadvertently removing silver point ends in chamber, used chloroform to
dissolve gp and leveraged the silver points out of canals with Steiglitz.

Small fragment of silver point left retained in apical segment of buccal canal. Interestingly buccal was longer than
palatal canal here. Fire on! - Rajiv Patel

40 year survival! If that’s not success, what is? And now with your nice reTx it will soldier on - Simon Bender Yeah Survival, Successful, Functional - what else? - Rajiv
