ABSTRACT
The persistence of apical periodontitis after endodontic therapy can be attributed to biological causes or when the treatment approaches have proven insufficient in completely eradicating the intra-radicular infection. This case report describes the endodontic retreatment of a maxillary molar in which file separation occurred during the cleaning and shaping procedure. The separated file was successfully retrieved utilizing a combination of ultrasonic and braiding techniques. The field of ultrasonics has undergone a thorough investigation and has been demonstrated to be a conservative technique with minimal radicular dentin trephination. The braiding technique is also a conservative method that involves the use of several braided H-files to apply a gripping force, facilitating the extraction of foreign bodies. The utilization of this methodology has been documented in the endodontic academic literature.
