    one cause could be detected/undetected periapical lesion.

    is there pain ? what does the IOPA show.

    or there could be extrusion of debris in the periapical due to aggressive BMP.

    a fracture is another possibility.

    u can also post the radiographs on the forum.

    regards,

    Veerendra

    IOPA had slight periapical lesion. bmp done within working length in 2 sittings. But the mobility was there for few days 2-3days but is now normal.So just wanted to know whether does that happen often?thanks so much for your response.

    Regards.

    even if BMP is done within working length it can cause extrusion of debris in the periapical.

    it depends on how the BMP is done.

    Interestingly how would u know that the BMP is done within FWL. FWL has to be guessed by a combination of 3 methods. one is an IOPA , 2nd is apex locator, 3rd is a paper point.

    Apex locator is only to confirm. it cannot be relied on completely.

    pack the canal with calcium hydroxide or Vitapex (if pt. can afford). wait for a week and see the respone.

    hope this helps.

    regards,

    Veeren
