Broken file retreatment. Bypassed and vibrated out. 3 portals of negotiation to the MB root, all canals found connected at the obturation stage. Onefil BC sealer injection.
No time to manage the mesial margin, will do when we retreat the first molar, or when the RD preps it, whatever comes first.

SIP through cervical caries. I treated the first premolar about 8 years ago - doing well despite the vanishing Bioroot. Preop CBCT shows the caries into the pulp, and a buccal-oriented lateral canal.
The canal was accessed occlusally and debrided quickly before tackling the cervical caries and restoring this part. Then the RCT was completed and the tooth fully restored.

Dilacerated premolar. 2-year recall.
The main challenge is not to be iatrogenic. I couldn't get the main exit patent, so the trick is not to make things worse and feel when to stop trying.
Let's not pretend irrigation has anything to do with the immediate or current outcome.
Asymptomatic and functional.

The brickest brick. 80yof, SAP. It was horrible. I was digging and digging with the ultrasonics, breaking up calcifications only to find more. Got a touch of hope when I found the DB canal. A miracle happened and I eventually found the MB canal too. But I went too far down what should have been the palatal canal with no luck, so much that I decided I wouldn't dig any further so as not to destroy the tooth and started to obturate the buccal canals. Once done I went back a last time toward the palatal and got in instantly.. I honestly thought I had destroyed the tooth in the process, and was pleasantly surprised to see on the post-op xrays that I still had a good bit of margin after all...

Long severely curved MB root. The rotaries wouldn't go without starting to shake dangerously, so it was once again mostly a job for the M4.

Accessing through Turkey teeth. This has got to be my weirdest access to date. I drew a bunch of lines on the pre-op radiograph and CBCT to guide me to the canal after I figured the start of my access had to be dramatically mesial. I felt very uncomfortable drilling at such an angle into the crown, but caught the canal spot on.
In other news, the Negotiation course is back in London on the 6th of February 2027 ! Learn how to tackle complex root canal anatomy, how to tame splits and lateral canals and other extra anatomy. Infos and registration : link in bio.
