Abstract
Stepwise caries excavation, being conceptualized for quite a time now, aims at phasic and thoughtful excavation of the diseased tissue, with a simultaneous attention to the fundamental principles of restorative dentistry. It has gained a humongous momentum conventionally, as the clinicians have eagle-eyed minimally invasive approaches for every possible treatment modality. The attempted case series showcases six cases of deep carious lesion managed by two-step caries excavation protocol in healthy patients diagnosed with chronic symptomatic reversible pulpitis, conclusively holding the longest favorable follow-up of over 3 years. This technique has a paramount clinical potential, conditional on appropriateness of case selection and clinical technique.
期刊介绍:
Vision SEJ aims to be one of the foremost worldwide periodical on Endodontics, dedicated to the promotion of research, post-graduate training and further education in Endodontics. Mission Statement To serve as a medium for continued Endodontic education and qualitative scientific publications on clinical trials, basic science related to the biological aspects of Endodontics, basic science related to Endodontic techniques as well as dental trauma that will ultimately improve the Endodontic research and patient’s health. Scope In this journal, Endodontists, Endodontic postgraduate students and general dentists, can learn about new concepts in root canal treatment and the latest advances in techniques and instrumentation that help them keep pace with rapid changes in this field. Aims and Objectives To publish cut edge peer-review original articles, case reports, letters to the editor, editorials, review articles, commentaries, and innovations that will impact on Endodontics. To enhance exchange of ideas/information relating to Endodontics and interaction among stakeholders. To encourage networking and partnership between individuals, government and non-governmental organizations for the provision of quality health care. To advocate for training, workshops, seminars, scientific manuscript writing conferences that will advance publishing culture.
