We hit a few roadblocks in this treatment — mid-canal blockages, false pathways, and a stubborn ledge — but with careful ultrasonic use, D-Finders, and **T-mode reciprocation**, we got there. The final obturation shows beautiful apical extrusion and a clean split — and yes, that’s the moment we live for in endo. 💡 You’ll learn: - How to manage canal blockages and negotiate a ledge - Tips for using **T-mode with HyFlex files** - Identifying and accessing a second canal - Smart use of bioceramic sealer for obturation - Why your **hand pressure** matters in apical compaction 🎯 Whether you’re a student, dentist in training, or just a root canal nerd like me — there’s something in this video for you. 📅 New videos drop every Friday.
