Dent Clin North Am. 1997 Jul;41(3):429-54.

Abstract

Clinicians frequently encounter endodontically treated teeth that are failing. The vast majority of these cases can be predictably retreated nonsurgically. Integration of specific technology, coupled with breakthrough techniques, are described and powerfully demonstrated. This article is designed for the dental team whose vision is to preserve strategic teeth and create endodontic excellence for its patients.
