The root canal filling of tooth #34 under a dental operating microscope. (a) The canals were trial-fitted; (b) The filling of the root canals in the lower segment of the root bifurcation; (c) The upper segment was backfilled with gutta-percha; (d) The final coronal filling as presented in the inverted x-ray image; (e–g) The postoperative CBCT results showed that the root canals were filled densely and continuously without gaps on the coronal plane (e), axial plane (f), and sagittal plane (g) Follow-up visit 1 year after RCT. (h) The full crown restoration of tooth #34; (i–k) CBCT results showed that the four root canals were densely and evenly filled, with no apparent abnormalities observed in the periapical region on the coronal plane (i), axial plane (j), and sagittal plane (k).
