Restoration of fractured canines in ferrets after one-step root canal treatment

Abstract

This article describes a one-step root canal treatment and restoration of canine teeth in ferrets. Standard brass posts were used for the reconstruction of the teeth. The procedures were performed by dentists according to all rules and procedures used in root canal treatment in humans. The teeth were immediately restored anatomically. The procedures were successfully performed in four ferrets aged between 6 and 20 months of age, in three upper and one lower canines.
