Case report 1
The patient, a 64-year-old
male, presented with a previously
conducted emergency root canal
treatment on his maxillary left first
premolar. A periapical radiograph
showed evidence of three separate
roots and a large periapical lesion
(Fig. 8). According to the patient,
the tooth was left open to allow for
drainage by his dentist who had
performed the emergency root
canal treatment.
Guideline 1:
Create straight-line access
and remove triangles of dentine
It is very important to prepare
an adequate access cavity that will
allow straight-line access into

Guideline 2:
Negotiate the canal to patency and
create a reproducible glide path
The authors of the article prefer to negotiate the root canal with
size 08 or 10 K-files until apical
patency is established (Fig. 13a).
This is the ability to pass small

This motion will create more lateral space, enabling the file to slide
a few more millimetres down the
root canal towards working length

ProTaper Next X2
The instrument (25.06) should
be taken to full working length
using the same protocol discussed
above. However, using the touchand-brush sequence in the apical
part of the root canal only two to
three times is recommended as
a final step (Fig. 19), as excessive
use can lead to transportation of
the root canal. The root canal
should again be irrigated, recapitulated and re-irrigated.

Shaping recommendations
for large-diameter root canals
or retreatment of root canals
If the first file to working
length is a size 20 K-file and it is
loose up to working length, the
shaping procedure can be initiated using the X2 (25.06). If the
first file to length is a 25/30, 30/35
or 40/45 and it is found to be loose
in the canal up to working length,
the shaping procedure can be
initiated with the X3 (30.07), X4
(40.06) or X5 (50.06), respectively.
