Abstract

Foreign Bodies, whether accidently trapped or self-introduced by the patient in the tooth can not only act as a potential source of infection but may also interfere with proper cleaning and shaping and subsequent obturation of the root canal space in such teeth. Such foreign bodies are generally found accidently on routine dental examination and are more common in children and anterior teeth. Though occurrence of foreign bodies in a root canal system is a fairly common finding, the present case was deemed even more complex as it had a furcural perforation in addition of the detection of foreign bodies in the root canal system.This case report highlights the successful endodontic management and orthograde removal of self-introduced foreign bodies and repair of furcural perforation with biodentin in a mandibular molar eliminating the need of surgical repair and management.
