Abstract
Mishaps such as fractured instruments, ledges and perforations are critical procedures faced by clinicians during endodontic treatment. Fractured instrument is a complex condition especially when the file fractures beyond the apex. There is potential risk of contamination associated with such kind of situation, which compromises the healing process. Management of a fractured instrument beyond the apex is difficult and time consuming. Various devices and techniques have been introduced in endodontics for retrieval of the fractured instruments, but none are consistently successful. This case report describes retrieval of fractured instrument separated beyond the apex using the modern ultrasonic tips
