“…Indeed, Edward Maynard has been credited with the development of the first endodontic hand instruments. Notching a round wire (in the beginning watch springs, later piano wires) he created small needles for extirpation of pulp tissue (5,6). In 1852 Arthur used small files for root canal enlargement (6)(7)(8)(9).…”

Preparation of root canal systems includes both enlargement and shaping of the complex endodontic space together with its disinfection. A variety of instruments and techniques have been developed and described for this critical stage of root canal treatment. Although many reports on root canal preparation can be found in the literature, definitive scientific evidence on the quality and clinical appropriateness of different instruments and techniques remains elusive. To a large extent this is because of methodological problems, making comparisons among different investigations difficult if not impossible. The first section of this paper discusses the main problems with the methodology of research relating to root canal preparation while the remaining section critically reviews current endodontic instruments and shaping techniques.

“…It is an ever evolving specialty (1)(2)(3)(4), as seen from the invention of engine-driven rotary instrumentation, single-file systems such as WaveOne and Reciproc, regenerative endodontics, and the decision-making process of implant versus endodontics (5). The advancement of how one practices endodontics for general practitioners (GPs) and endodontists is shifting continuously.…”

“…The concept of local or systemic disease secondary to a localized chronic infection, is usually called focal infection. The years have been designated thefocal infection era (Bellizzi & Cruse 1980). StoU, in more recent times, is credited with having suggested in 1785 a relationship between infection of the tonsil and some systemic diseases (Noda et ai.…”

The review presented here covers metastatic local and systemic disease secondary to the accumulation of plaque or the formation of other pathogenic microbial depots in the mouth. At least 3 pathways may link oral infection to secondary disease, to wit metastatic infection due to transient bacteremia, metastatic immunological injury, and metastatic toxic injury. The available evidence is presented and examples are provided. They concern among others such divergent diseases as acute bacterial myocarditis, infective endocarditis, brain abscess, uveitis and iridocyclitis, trigeminal and atypical facial neuralgia, unilateral facial paralysis, fever of "unknown' origin, and neutrophil dysfunction.
