Conclusion
Treatment of dilacerated root canals, especially teeth with difficult
anatomy requires an integration of an accurate diagnostic armamentarium,
novel techniques, and modern instrumentation. Furthermore, complementary
achievements in the area of activation of ultrasonic irrigation and
thermoplasticized warm vertical obturation have enabled better cleaning
and obturation of curved canals by minimal residual infection, which
leads to long-term clinical outcomes. This paper reports on three
complex endodontic cases that encourage the dental profession to treat
even the most challenging anatomical situations. These variations can
affect technique effectiveness, so future studies with larger and more
diverse samples, including various tooth types and canal configurations,
and with longer follow-ups, can demonstrate long-term outcomes of
treatment efficacy. Future investigations and new technologies will
assist clinicians in refining existing and developing new methods to
better care for patients and effectively treat challenging cases, such
as those with dilacerated roots.
