Endodontic Microsurgery Using Dynamic Navigation And Trephine Burs, Trenton Smith, Sameer Jain, Jeffery Nick Sanders, Michael Block, Mark Odom, Albert F. Mcmullen

School of Dentistry Faculty Publications

Objectives: The use of the surgical operating microscope, CBCT imagining, biocompatible filling materials and ultrasonic instruments have improved the success and predictability of apical surgery. Despite these advances, more accurate and precise techniques for creating osteotomies and root-resections (apicoectomies) have not been widely adopted. This study highlights how dynamic navigation systems (DNS) can help avoid unnecessary dentin removal and “mitigate iatrogenic errors” such as root perforation. Methods: A total of 56 root-end resections were planned and completed on two sets of identical TrueJaw Endosurg models (DE Labs, Santa Barbra, CA, USA). One set of maxillary and mandibular jaws were used …
