title: Non-surgical management of infected type III dens invaginatus with vital surrounding pulp using contemporary endodontic techniques.
abstract: This paper reports on the conservative non-surgical endodontic management of an upper right lateral incisor diagnosed with infected dens invaginatus (Oehlers' type III) and associated acute apical abscess, while maintaining vitality of the surrounding pulp. The use of contemporary endodontic techniques in the diagnosis, treatment planning and management of the case is highlighted.
