Abstract

Endodontic perforation is an iatrogenic error which results in the communication between the crown and the oral cavity/root and the periodontal ligament space and bone. It’s the most common type of endodontic mishap occurs while negotiating canals.

The primary cause of endodontic perforations is poor knowledge of the internal anatomy of the tooth. Other factor includes calcification, rotation, malposed tooth, and resorption. The diagnosis of root perforation is pivotal for treatment and good prognosis. Prime diagnosis of perforation was done by Clinical and radiographic examination. Cone-beam computed tomography play an important role for the diagnosis perforation, even with other materials superimposing the defect. This article mainly focuses on prevention of endodontic perforations.
