Hi, I've stared at the radiographs and I'm still not 100% sure about what is wrong with the 2nd radiograph. Is it the apical radiolucencies? Or is it the lack of good seal coronally?

Also, I hope this question is not too silly. How come the RCs done by you have got a layer of radiolucent material before the definitive restoration? what material is that? Is it Duralon???

Thanks Dr!

The x-rays the root canal therapy you have shared here with us is good. I think you have done a great work. Root canal treatment is done to save the teeth from being extracted. Although it is a long and quite painful procedure it is good to go for this process in order to save the teeth.
