She had extensive decay across multiple primary teeth. The management involved: 1. IPC for moderately deep cavities 74, 85 where the pulp was near but not exposed 2. Pulpectomy access opening + TAP + BMP for severely affected teeth 75, 85 where irreversible pulpitis or infection was likely 3. Radiographs to monitor progress 4. Further restorations planned for remaining carious teeth 54, 65, 84 This is a classic multi-visit pediatric endodontic case managed step by step with interim dressings and phased pulp therapy. Q: Diagnose this? A: Here is the complete radiographic diagnosis of this RVG Radio Visio Graphy periapical X-ray: --- Radiographic Diagnosis - IOPAR RVG 5200 What the X-ray Shows This is an Intraoral Periapical Radiograph IOPAR taken on an RVG 5200 digital sensor, showing the maxillary anterior region - likely the canine, lateral incisor, and central incisor region. --- Tooth-by-Tooth Radiographic Analysis Tooth A - Far Left Partially Visible - Partially imaged tooth - Shows a large radiopaque restoration in the crown - Root morphology partially visible Tooth B - Middle Tooth Central Finding - Crown: Radiopaque restoration present likely composite/GIC restoration - Root: Single root, well-formed - Pulp canal: Visible and appears wider than normal - Periapical region: There is a well-defined radiolucency dark area around the root apex - KEY FINDING: Periapical radiolucency - suggestive of periapical pathology Tooth C - Right Side Tooth - Crown appears intact with a restoration - Root is well-formed with closed apex - Interproximal region: Shows a radiolucent line/dark shadow between this tooth and Tooth B - Possible interproximal caries or bone loss at the contact area --- Primary Diagnosis 1. Chronic Periapical Abscess / Periapical Granuloma - The large, well-defined periapical radiolucency around the root apex of the middle tooth is the dominant finding - Differential for this apical dark area: - Periapical granuloma most common - 75% of periapical lesions - Radicular/Periapical cyst if large and well corticated - Chronic apical abscess if history of pain/sinus tract 2. Pulp Necrosis underlying cause - The periapical pathology indicates the pulp is likely necrotic - The existing restoration may have been placed over deep caries that led to pulp death 3. Possible External Root Resorption or Bone Loss - The interproximal dark shadow between the two teeth may suggest interdental bone loss or proximity artifact --- Radiographic Features Summary Feature Finding ------ Teeth visible 3 maxillary teeth likely canine, lateral, central incisor Restorations Present in at least 2 teeth radiopaque Periapical area Radiolucency at apex of middle tooth Root morphology Well-formed, single roots Pulp chambers Obliterated/not clearly visible suggests previous restorations Lamina dura Disrupted/absent around the affected apex Bone pattern Alveolar bone shows rarefaction periapically PDL space Widened at the apex --- Differential Diagnosis Diagnosis Likelihood Distinguishing Features --------- Periapical granuloma High Well-defined radiolucency 1 cm, no cortication Periapical cyst Radicular cyst Moderate Well-corticated, round/oval, often 1 cm Chronic periapical abscess Moderate Diffuse margins, history of swelling/sinus Apical scar Low Only after previous RCT --- Recommended Management 1. Pulp vitality tests cold test / EPT to confirm pulp status 2. Root Canal Treatment RCT for the affected tooth - since periapical pathology is present 3. Follow-up IOPAR at 6 months after RCT to assess healing of periapical lesion 4. If the lesion fails to resolve after RCT: Periapical surgery apicoectomy or extraction 5. Check adjacent teeth for caries or bone loss --- Note: This is an RVG digital X-ray RVG 5200 = Kodak/Carestream digital sensor, which provides enhanced contrast and detail compared to conventional film radiographs. The diagnosis is based on radiographic features alone; clinical correlation symptoms, vitality testing, history is required for a definitive diagnosis. Q: It is my teeth 14 and I got composite filling previous year and in June 2026 i suddenly got throbbing pain while sleeping and when doctor opened the teeth it was filled with fluid and foul smell and they cleaned canals with file it was dead and she irrigated the canals and then she put gic and again it started pain she repeated the same process then i went to my college and i suddenly get intense pain and swelling i delayed it but i was unable to eat and then i went to dentist she opened gic part it was filled with blood and now it's open tooth A: Your credits are exhausted.
