Details

Description:

Root resorption is a misunderstood common complexity seen in teeth. It has historically been considered exotic and rare but in the last two decades it has become common. Extracanal invasive resorption is the most common type found and will be the primary focus of Dr. Pannkuk’s discussion. Case histories of different levels of complexity will be shown treated with recall examinations. Management strategies, CBCT mapping, prognosis assessment, treatment execution, and follow-up recommendations for restoration will be discussed in great detail. A special emphasis will be given to properties and appropriate choice of root repair materials.

Dr. Pannkuk’s unique micro-invasive internal approach will be taught with important details highlighting periodontal tissue attachment and suggestions for maintaining long-term stability and function.
