Endodontic Instrumentation at the Speed of Thought

With the continuous introductions of endodontic rotary files, recommended instrumentation techniques seem to proliferate even more rapidly with differing and sometimes conflicting approaches. Can they all be right?

Over 2,400 rotary file evaluations have lead to the understanding that scientific principles of instrumentation and evidence-based parameters need to be the foundation of expertise rather than cookbook type instructions. This presentation demonstrates the research that provides the most significant evidence-based principles for instrumentation in terms of effectiveness, efficiency and safety for any type endodontic file available today and as they become available in the future.

Educational Objectives:

The purpose of this presentation is to enable each participant to design and accomplish root canal instrumentation in the most efficient, most effective manner with the least risk for instrument failure. In other words, the goal is to maximize efficiency and minimize risk. The participant should be able to accomplish this goal no matter what instruments are being used or how complicated the canal anatomy might be.
