Abstrakt: Foreign objects that are found in the root canals may be placed by the patient themselves or sometimes by the dentist as a part of dental malpractice. The presence of these objects prevents thorough cleaning and shaping of the root canal system and is hence likely to compromise the treatment. Also these metallic objects act as a focus of infection and lead to severe dentinal destruction. Removal of these objects from the canal without sacrificing much tooth structure and subsequent endodontic management remains a challenge. In many instances such obstructions can be negotiated and the offending object removed without great difficulty. However, in other cases the procedure might be time consuming. The cases that are presented address the difficulties encountered while removing these unusual canal obstructions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
