In the field of endodontics, precision and innovation are crucial for treatment success. In this article, we will explore a clinical case by Dr. Juan Algar involving a biopulpectomy on tooth 17, successfully resolved with the help of Zarc's advanced technology, including the system BlueShaper PRO®, including the wireless ultrasonic activator Z-Activator
Clinical case instrumented with BlueShaper PRO®
The patient, a 54-year-old woman in good general health, presents with spontaneous pain in tooth 17. Examination reveals a significant mesial caries with pulpal involvement. A diagnosis of irreversible pulpitis is made, and root canal treatment is recommended.
The patient presented with significant distal tilting of the clinical crown, and radiographically, it was difficult to visualize the root outlines and canals. The mesiobuccal root exhibited a curvature greater than 30º, classifying the case as highly difficult according to the criteria of the American Association of Endodontists (AAE).
Dr. Juan Algar chose the BlueShaper PRO® system due to its flexibility and superior cutting efficiency. This system is particularly well-suited for challenging cases like this one, thanks to its DualWire® technology, which eliminates the shape memory of the files, allowing them to be pre-curved for better access to curved canals.
BlueShaper PRO®: Exceptional flexibility and cutting performance
The use of advanced technologies such as BlueShaper PRO® and Z-Activator has proven to be crucial in the management of complex endodontic cases. These tools not only enhance treatment efficiency but also contribute to better long-term outcomes for patients..
ChatGPT Plus The instrumentation and obturation were successfully performed, managing the anatomical complexity and ensuring effective cleaning and adequate sealing of the canals.
- Instrumentation: sequential use of BlueShaper PRO® files from Z1 to Z4.
- Irrigation: application of 2.5% sodium hypochlorite and 17% EDTA, activated by the Z-Activator..
- Obturation: vertical condensation technique using the Z-Down and Z-Up system, with Z4 gutta-percha cones and AH Plus sealer to ensure optimal sealing..
Finally, detailed postoperative care instructions were provided, emphasizing the importance of following the recommendations to ensure optimal recovery.
