Confusing endodontic cases. Case series report

ABSTRACT

Here, we introduce some confusing endodontic cases, which we had experienced in our clinic. The first case had been misdiagnosed as a skin lesion and received extended skin treatment. The second case had been misdiagnosed as a periodontal lesion and received periodontal treatment by two former dentists. The third case exhibited oral malodor and the patient worried about his breath odor for a long period. These three cases have received endodontic treatment in our clinic, and the patients were free from their long-lasting problems. We also discuss other confusing cases with literature mini-review
