Details
Description:
Pulp and periapical diseases are initiated primarily by microbial factors. Healing, therefore, occurs when the infection is properly controlled and the host-parasite relationship is made favorable for the host. This lecture will outline the etiology and clinical features of refractory endodontic disease. Extra-radicular endodontic infections (microbial and virus), 'sulfa-granules' and periapical biofilm will also be reviewed.
Course Outline
- Clinical and radiographic features of post-treatment endodontic disease.
- The role of intraradicular and extraradicular root surface biofilm in treatment failures.
- The role of extraradicular infections (ie: sulfa granules, etc.)
Objectives
- Describe the etiological factors responsible for treatment-resistant PA disease.
- Understand the role of microorganisms/biofilm in post-treatment endodontic disease.
- Understand the significance of extra-radicular infection, periapical "sulfa-granules" and periapical plaque.
