Opis

Endodontic Treatment in Teeth with Anatomical Variations is a concise yet comprehensive work that addresses one of the most critical challenges in endodontic practice-the identification and management of complex root canal anatomy. The book emphasizes that anatomical variations are common and are a major cause of endodontic failure when unrecognized or inadequately managed. It integrates concepts of tooth development, internal anatomy, and clinical endodontics to explain why variations occur and how they influence diagnosis, treatment planning, and outcomes. Variations such as additional roots and canals, C-shaped canals, fused roots, isthmuses, apical deltas, and developmental anomalies including taurodontism and dens invaginatus are systematically discussed. Strong emphasis is placed on accurate diagnosis using radiographs, magnification, and cone-beam computed tomography. The book also provides practical guidance on access cavity modification, canal location, cleaning, shaping, irrigation, and obturation of irregular canal systems. Overall, it reinforces that successful endodontic treatment depends on adapting sound biological principles to the unique anatomy of each tooth.
