Pretreatment of Bicuspid
During the retreatment of a bicuspid, it was discovered that the canal had not been fully cleaned and obturated to the appropriate length. The initial filling used was Thermafill, which fortunately can be easily removed with Headstrom files. The goal now is to thoroughly clean the canal and ensure it reaches the radiographic apex. With proper treatment, the tooth is expected to heal over time, and there is hope for bone regrowth in the coming months.
