They are mainly identified intraorally and in rare cases they manifest extraorally which may frequently be misdiagnosed and incorrectly treated. New technologies such as lasers have been developed as adjuncts to standard endodontic antimicrobial procedures in order to increase the success rate of endodontic therapy and complying the desire of saving a natural tooth.
