Complex diagnosis in Endodontics

An accurate diagnosis is fundamental for the determination of an appropriate treatment plan. To emphasize, the majority of cases can be resolved in a simplified way, in others its characteristics can cover the diagnosis needing more invasive complementary tests to understand the etiology. In fact, the use of diagnostic tests can actually present a high level of doubt. Therefore, when faced with cases of complex diagnosis it is important to implement scientific knowledge and common sense unified with the capacity to interpret results of the complementary tests, decide de prognosis and to do an appropriate selection of the case within the first phase towards a successful treatment.
