Retrieval of Separated Endodontic Instrument

Endodontic instrument fracture is a procedural error that creates a significant barrier to routine root canal therapy. A separated instrument results in insufficient cleaning and shaping of the root canals. Inadequate biomechanical preparation has an impact on the result and outcome of root canal treatment. Therefore, retrieval of separated instruments should be considered important. There are many instrument retrieval kits and techniques available for this purpose. In this case report, a separated rotary file was successfully retrieved using a Masserann kit .
