Procedural errors and complications of diagnosis and treatment in endodontics

A total of 68 panoramic radiograms of patients aged between 25 and 61 years were analyzed, revealing that 81% of cases presented endodontic errors and complications. The lack of knowledge or inadequate application of it in practice can lead to a series of accidental errors during canal therapy. Preventive measures and management of these accidents are essential for the success of endodontic therapy and for maintaining the natural integrity of the teeth. As a result of failed endodontic treatment, manifested by primary symptoms such as pain during chewing, during percussion, and the presence of a fistula, as well as various radiological signs, there is a need to reconsider endodontic treatment, which should be discussed beforehand with the patient about their options. Consequently, retreatment of endodontics has become a well–defined area of knowledge and expertise in endodontics, as most complications can be resolved with surgical or non–surgical treatments.
