Course Overview
This lecture aims at introducing participants to a restoratively driven approach to endodontic therapy.
Participants will learn new concepts in endodontic access design, new approaches to shaping the canal
system more conservatively, advanced irrigation methods to disinfect these smaller spaces, and obturation
techniques aimed at filling less invasive preparations.
Anatomic danger zones and how anatomy effects rotary file design selection and technique. Dr. Limosani
illustrates the subtle and not-so-subtle areas of tooth anatomy that can create problems for the endodontic
clinician, outlines and Illustrates the new rotary file design parameters that compensate for these areas and
discuss and illustrate how new concepts in access design and rotary file technique assist the clinician in
creating error free shaping results
Course Objectives
Learning goals include conducting an ongoing review of current, pertinent, professional literature, fundamental to the successful practice of endodontics. The workshop concentrates on how to perform endodontics in a predictable, reproducible manner in a modern, data driven fashion and how to complete root canal therapy in such a manner that you enhance the long-term prognosis of the tooth. This hands-on workshop aims at providing clinicians with a better understanding of how to execute high level endodontic procedures without sacrificing tooth structure unnecessarily. Clinicians will be exposed to different file systems that are designed to maximize tooth conservation. Tricks and tips will be provided to better disinfect and obturate these smaller root canal preparations. Objectives include:
