Esthetics

Diagnostic

Evaluation and analysis of the symptoms

Vitality tests

Radiovisiography (digital X-ray)

Root canal treatment using Rotary handpiece (assisted by apex locator) with nickel-titanium files

Uniradicular:single root teeth, normally straight and easy to access, in general with only one canal.

Biradicular:teeth with two roots, normally straight and easy to access, in general with two to three canals.

Multiradicular:teeth with several roots, normally curved and difficult to access, presenting from 3 to 5 canals

Glass-fiber Endo-Post placement and endodontic fillings
