Endodontic therapy in teeth with calcified canals

Treatment of obliterated canals as a result of calcifications is a challenge even for experienced endodontists. For that reason, the aim of this study was to present some cases from practice where, even in spite of almost complete canals obliteration, success in endodontic therapy has been achieved. In the cases presented, endodontic therapy was indicated due to symptoms, periapical lesions, or the need for prosthetic treatment with post placement. By working carefully and using EDTA, we achieve successful endodontic treatment and preserve tooth functionality.
