What is Pulpal Dystrophic Calcification about?
During routine dental examination, a 36-yr-old white male presented with two asymptomatic and uninvolved maxillary incisors. No treatment was provided for 12 yr until an accidental shearing off of the crown of #7 at the cervical level. An artificial canal was made with engine-driven burs and root canal hand instruments for placement of a dowel, cast core, and crown. The post preparation procedure produced a labial perforation. This defect was repaired with amalgam and we elected to do apical retrograde amalgams in both apices while the flap was laid open. Ten years later, both teeth are functioning in excellent health. The literature review suggests that dystrophic calcification is being overtreated and reports higher success for nontreated cases as compared with treated cases.
