Single-Visit Endodontic Treatment 🦷

The patient presented with severe, continuous, and radiating pain in the upper-left anterior region. Clinical examination revealed tenderness to percussion, while the preoperative radiograph showed periapical radiolucency and widening of the periodontal ligament (PDL) space.

Endodontic treatment of tooth 22 (Upper Left Lateral Incisor) was advised.

After administering local anesthesia, the tooth was isolated, and endodontic treatment was initiated. Following caries excavation, the pulp tissue was extirpated. Sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) was used as the primary irrigant. Working length was determined using an electronic apex locator, followed by canal cleaning and shaping.

After irrigation and drying, the canal was found to be dry, and obturation was carried out using the cold lateral compaction technique. Finally, a composite resin buildup was placed.

Treatment completed in a single visit! âś…

Dentistry Is More Physically Demanding Than It Looks

Dentistry may look like a profession where you simply sit in a chair and work with your hands. But every dentist knows the reality is very different.

A long RCT, a difficult extraction, multiple crown preparations, or even a full day of restorative work can leave your neck, shoulders, back, wrists, and eyes completely exhausted.

We work in a very small operating field "the oral cavity" while trying to maintain perfect vision and extremely precise hand movements. Sometimes we spend 1–2 hours in almost the same position, leaning forward, twisting our neck, or keeping our shoulders elevated without even realizing it.

And then there are the little things patients don't see:

The stiff neck after a long procedure.
The lower-back pain at the end of the day.
The tired eyes after looking through loupes or a microscope.
The wrist and finger fatigue after hours of instrumentation.
And that moment when you finally leave the clinic and realize just how exhausted your body actually is.

The problem is that dentists often accept this discomfort as “part of the job.” It shouldn't be.

Proper ergonomics, correct patient positioning, magnification, good-quality instruments, adequate lighting, regular micro-breaks, stretching, and maintaining physical fitness can make a significant difference.

We spend our careers taking care of other people's oral health. We also need to take care of the body that allows us to practice dentistry.

Because dentistry is not only mentally demanding or technically challenging. It is physically demanding too and our bodies eventually remind us of that.

Take care of your posture. Take care of your body. Take care of your career. ❤️🦷

"Dental Scaling doesn't weaken your teeth".
It should be done ATLEAST twice in a year to avoid buildup of plaque and acquired stains caused by e.g strong tea and coffee etc, which leads to bad breath, discoloration and/or mobile teeth which may lead to other health issues...

Sometimes, the tooth that hurts today isn’t the only tooth that needs attention. 🦷

This patient first presented in 2023 with pain in the lower right posterior region. 46 had a previously performed but inadequate RCT, and retreatment was advised. 47 also required further evaluation for proximal caries.

The patient unfortunately did not return.

Three years later, she presented again with continuous, nocturnal, radiating pain. Clinically, 46 was asymptomatic, while 47 was tender to percussion and had a deep mesial carious lesion.

Endodontic treatment of 47 was completed in a single visit under rubber dam isolation. Retreatment of 46 is still required and has been planned for a later visit.

🦷 The lesson for patients:

Pain is not always a warning that comes at the beginning — sometimes, it comes when the problem has already progressed.

If your dentist recommends treatment, don’t wait for the tooth to hurt again.
An asymptomatic tooth can still have a serious problem. Early treatment is usually simpler, more predictable, and less painful than emergency treatment later.

PS: Deep Margin Elevation isn't upto the mark, it was a challenging case. Will be evaluating it when patient visits for retreatment and crown.

Don’t wait for pain to make the decision for you.

Quack Alert! ⚠️ 📢
During my school days, this man, who is now operating on patients used to drive a pick-and-drop Hiace that would take us from our homes to school. I don’t remember his name, but I recognized him immediately by his facial features.

This is the alarming reality of quackery in our country. Someone can go from driving a school transport vehicle to performing procedures on patients, with little or no accountability.

We (public) bargain over everything. We think a thousand times before spending money on clothes, electronics, or other purchases. But when it comes to our health, many people look for the cheapest option without considering the qualifications, training, experience, and credentials of the person providing the treatment.

Healthcare is not a commodity where the cheapest option should win. Patient safety must come first.

Before allowing anyone to perform a procedure on you or your loved ones, ask: Is this person properly qualified? Are they licensed? Are they trained to perform this procedure? Is the facility equipped to manage complications if something goes wrong?

A wrong purchase can be replaced. A life-altering injury, disability, or loss of life cannot.

We need stronger regulation, accountability, and most importantly greater public awareness. Patients deserve qualified professionals, safe facilities, and care that meets proper medical standards.
