Abstract

Background: Root canal treatment of necrotic tooth with apical periodontitis aims to clean the root canal of necrotic tissue and return periapical tissue to normal condition. Lower second molar teeth with a single root canal can be found in root canal treatment. Purpose: This case report aim to demonstrate the success of root canal treatment in mandibular second molars with a single root canal with final restoration using composite resin restoration reinforced with polyethylene fiber. Case Report: 31 year old female patient came to seek treatment with a complaint of lower right molar that had previously been accessed and restored temporarily, but still painful to chew. Clinical examination showed wide access opening in the crown, positive to percussion, and negative to palpation. The radiographic imaging showed the radiopaque area of the dental crown, a single root canal and the widening of the periodontal ligament at the root end of the tooth. Case Management: Root canal treatment was performed using conventional technique and obturation with lateral compaction. Three weeks post-root canal treatment the tooth was restored with composite resin with polyethylene fiber as reinforcement. Evaluation at the time of post restoration control showed no complaints of pain and good clinical condition. Conclusion: Root canal treatment on molar teeth with a single root canal with composite resin restoration and polyethylene fiber as reinforced showed successful result. Keywords: composite resin, polyethylene fiber, root canal treatment, single root canal.
