Teaching apical patency, instrumentation and obturation techniques in U.S. dental schools
Maintaining apical patency has been advocated to minimize canal transportation, ledge formation, and loss of working length, despite increasing debris extrusion. A previous study in 1997 by...

Prevalence of and factors associated with vertical root fracture in a Japanese population
Previous studies on the prevalence of vertical root fractures were based on extracted teeth, or teeth referred for apical surgery. This study examined teeth with an isolated periodontal probing depth...

Effect of field of view, voxel size on CBCT accuracy of navigation in endodontic microsurgery
This study aimed to evaluate the influence of field of view and voxel size on the accuracy of dynamic navigation–assisted endodontic microsurgery.
Patient-centered outcomes identified in this study may supplement treatment outcomes and help develop a core outcome set related to endodontic treatments.

Cleaning efficiency of irrigation techniques in simulated complex root canal systems
Researchers compared the biofilm-mimicking hydrogel removal efficiency of laser-activated irrigation with five other irrigation techniques in simulated curved root canals with lateral canals.
External cervical resorption is a type of dental resorption that originates from the loss of the cementum's protective layer.
In 2004, a new technique was introduced for the treatment of non-vital immature teeth, termed a regenerative endodontic procedure, which allows for continued root maturation in both length and...
Researchers evaluated the effects of diabetes mellitus on the nanostructure of root canal dentin using high-resolution transmission electron microscopy and inductively coupled plasma mass...

AI-guided algorithms have a great potential to better diagnose, treatment plan, and execute endodontic treatments, as well as outcome prediction of the various endodontic treatments. A review of...
Fracture of shaping instruments within root canals is a common undesirable incident in endodontics. These fractures can prevent proper preparation, disinfection and obturation of the canal. They can...
