Nice case : Hopeless case : Huge resorption : Treatment failure

This patient came to me in pain after 2 other general dentists had been seeing him. The last dentist, a friend of mine, tennis buddy, who has now closed his practice and gone to full time teaching at the local dental school, was treating ( by the patients description )
by draining the cyst and placing medication. The patient experienced several episodes of pain and numbing lip and it would go away when the dentist would treat it
.... Treatment failure
The periodontal loss seems not as much as it was in reality. Guess pictures will speak by themselves. Patient feels good all teeht are tight and in function -
don't know why. god bless the implantology .... Huge resorption
It has been one of those days...
3 vrf cases that could not be treated. 2 I was able to discern clinically before starting treatment. The 3rd, required methylene blew to nail it down and was aborted.
.... hopeless fractures
Couple of simple but nice cases
