We Should Remind That the Importance of Root Canal Irrigation to Prevent Post-Endodontic Pain

Summary

I think that the cause of post endodontic pain after root canal treatment is the extrusion of debris, not the mechanical damage by the files at the periapical tissues. The debris, in this case, means, which caused during root canal preparation procedures, dentin chips, pulp tissue, microorganisms.
And I also think that it is very important that the irrigation of the root canal, especially in its apical third.

The post endodontic pain after endodontic treatment, of course, we don’t like it. It is because the patient will be in pain.

Therefore, we are an effort to prevent occurring the post-endodontic pain after the root canal treatment.

Post endodontic pain after the root canal treatment usually occurs from apically extruded debris, not the mechanical damage by the files.

The debris stem from the root canal shaping procedure. In general, those were made of dentin chips, pulp tissue, microorganisms. If they extruded into periapical tissue, whatever the degree, we should assume that inflammation will occur.

Thus I think that it is very important to irrigate the root canal to remove it routinely during root canal treatment.

Now, I will write about the specific technique of how I perform root canal irrigation at another time.

The above image is a great textbook on root canal irrigation written in Japanese (Chiro Kobayahi 「根管洗浄よりよい治癒を目指して」).

Are Kurds Refugees?

　 This article is not related to my usual dental practice. Recently, Kurds have been causing problems in Kawaguchi City, Saitama Prefecture, Japan. The Japanese mass media has not reported on this at all, but Japanese people who lived in Kawaguchi City have reported the situation vividly on Twitter. There is a growing sense of anxiety among the residents. These Kurds have applied for refugee status in Japan, claiming that they are Turks, but they are persecuted in Turkey, so they have come to Japan as refugees and are asking for help. However, we know that they entered Japan as Turkish tourists and applied for refugee status as Kurds as soon as their tourist visas expired. By the way, about 600$ per month is provided from taxpayers' money as protection money. Generally, Japanese people do not discriminate against foreigners, but we do not like criminals who disrupt social security. The Japanese are equally averse to criminals, whether they are fellow countrymen or foreigners. I wo...

The Sealer-Puff After the Root Canal Obturation, the Relationship Between Root Canal Irrigation

The sealer-puff is a characteristic appearance of sealer overflow outside the apical foramen on the confirmatory dental photograph after root canal filling. This is caused by a small amount of sealer overflowing outside the apical foramen when the dentists pressurize the area around the apical constriction to achieve a tight root canal filling. It is also caused by sealer penetrating the lateral branches of the apical-delta due to pressure at the apex. The sealer puff is, after all, an overflow of foreign material into the periapical tissue of the root apex. Of course, dentists must always try to prevent foreign material to overflow from the root apex into the apical periapical tissue. However, if we take into account the cause of sealer puffs, we can evaluate them from a different perspective. Sealer puffs are... The area around the root apex is properly cleaned and free of debris, ensuring the patency of the root canal. And Be caused by the application of a good flow of s...
