Root Canal Specialist In Chennai
Hirschfeld and Wasserman reported a percentage of tooth loss in furcation-involved molars of 31.4% compared to 4.9% in single-rooted teeth after a mean maintenance period of 22 years . McFall obtained similar results in 100 periodontally treated patients maintained for 15 to 29 years.
is the furcation involvement due to a compromised periodontium or floor of the pulp chamber carious?? if its compromised perio success rate would be good provided that the furcation can be cleaned with a bottle brush.if its carious exposure then mta repair of the floor can be done but i think success would be less since tooth root structure is compromised.
