Abstract

The aim of endodontic therapy is to clean and shape the root canal in order to obtain a tridimensional sealing of the endodontic space. For proper isolation of the tooth involved, using a rubber dam is absolutely necessary. Since many of the teeth which need endodontic therapy present deep carious lesions and massive destruction of the hard tissues of the tooth, placing the rubber dam is sometimes difficult or even impossible . In these cases, the first step before starting routine endodontic therapy is to eliminate all of the carious tissue and to reconstruct the hard structure of the tooth in order to get proper isolation and a good access cavity with four surrounding walls.
