CASE SUMMARY: Non surgical retreatment of tooth #30 previously treated with silver points, the tooth also suffers form a distal root perforation.
Most of us will not even think that this tooth has any chance to be successfully treated. The tooth survived a 7-year old perforation and an even older treatment with silver points; would it survive a retreatment using modern endodontics at NSE? This case highlights the benefits of microendodontics on the procedure outcome.
