This root canal filling is evidently short in both roots, patient presented with a facial swelling, gutta percha removed and although I expected to establish drainage through the mesial root ( due to the radiolucency beneath it) however it was the distal root in which the pus and exudate came from! Let's keep in mind that our 2D xray is limited by definition,therefore broaden your mind to overcome the machine limitation. Another example of failed root canal treatment due to intracanal infection Mandibular first molar. Pulpal diagnosis : previously treated. Periapical diagnosis: acute apical abscess. #endodontics #retreatment #Mandibular #molar #short_filling #coronal_seal #apical_seal #challenging #specialist #jordan #amman

"I'm scared of the results..." This was the response a patient gave when I recommended cervical screening after she mentioned recurring #painful #intercourse and #yeast #infections. It made me realize something important: #Medical #terminology or #Jargons can make simple health discussions seem frightening. Sometimes, we make things sound more complicated than they need to be. Let me break it down simply: - The cervix is simply the connecting passage between the womb and vagina - (And yes, the vulva and vagina are different parts - know your anatomy! 😉😂) Here's what we need to understand: - Not every discharge indicates what we assume - Those peculiar odors (like that onion-like smell) aren't always just minor toilet infections - The cervix might be signaling early warnings we shouldn't ignore #An #ounce #of #prevention #is #worth #a #pound #of #cure ❗ Don't dismiss symptoms as just minor infections. Take that step - Get Screened 💪 #CervicalHealth #WomensHealth #CervicalScreening #HealthAwareness #PreventiveCare #StepUpWithDrVanessa #Jovial
