    Nice treatment, Glenn. I guess had the Cl V amalgam been removed enough in the access, the orifice may be located by the endodontist.

    How do you deal with the fee in a situation like this?

    Hi Andrew………the amalgam fell out and still they werent able to locate the MB canal but we all have those days.

    I am picking up the tab as the endodontist has done a ton of things for me……..its the least I can do.

    Glenn,

    Nice case and service to your patient. I love seeing those pictures you get ! Especially the one with the crack in the second molar. My experience has been dismal with those in the long run. I would expect in the near future to see a perio lesion (small chimney-like defect) develope at the least and at worse have it split in 2 causing much discomfort.

    If you really want to keep it, since the last molar has the greatest occlusal stresses, I would put an immediate ortho band on it to splint the tooth before you get the crown in place so Murphy does not get busy with your plans.

    Good luck. You always come up with the most interesting cases. I started using the Tetrac flowable in class I preps after seeing one of your posts and it has been wonderful. Thanks for the tip.

    Lee ……thanks.

    I try different things……am willing to put my neck out and am fortunate to be able to take photos through the scope easily ……..

    The flowable for small lesions works nicely. I like Point 4 flowable for the Class Vs and it is very plasticky…….works nicely.

    I hope that with time we can all get a chance to meet……..

    I enjoy this forum for what I learn…..I have to redo the endo on the 2nd molar and will try to get a temp crown or an ortho band on the tooth………

    Thanks for the advice………

    Cya
