Pneumocystography

Pneumocystrography is a diagnostic method based on the introduction of a special liquid under pressure into the tissue using a thin needle. This achieves a pressure that allows visualization of small cavities. This method can also be used to biopsy the apical end of the root. More than 30 modifications of the method have been developed, intended for a specific clinical case with varying degrees of pressure on the diseased organ. Pneumoimpugation allows one to obtain a lot of information about the affected tissues. This is at the same time a method of analysis, diagnosis and treatment by puncture. The use of pneumoimpugation opens up new opportunities in solving diagnostic issues and expanding the range of clinical and research methods.

Pneumocystrography is carried out after preliminary preparation of the patient in compliance with strict aseptic rules in the operating room. Introductory analgesia is administered and gentle relaxation of the muscles of the maxillofacial area is provided.

Before starting the manipulation, it is advisable to treat the oral mucosa with an antiseptic. Under local anesthesia, trephination of the bone of the socket within the pulp is performed from the tooth in the vestibular direction. A needle is inserted into the hole and the tooth is filled with a syringe with the previously removed bur. The needle is then connected to the syringe and the initial pressure is applied to the syringe. When a certain level of pressure is reached, the needle is removed from the socket and the tooth crown is removed. After this, the syringe is again connected to the bone and
