Abstract

Guided endodontics is a recent resource provided by three-dimensional (3D) digital technology in dentistry. It focuses on improving precision and safety in clinical challenges such as calcified root canals, apical surgery in complex anatomic areas, fiberglass post removal, and teeth with internal abnormalities. It was designed to allow handling of complex cases with controlled structure weakness and preservation as well. The idea came from implantology. Guided endodontics is the sum of cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) software and devices plus digital scanning, planning, and printing technologies applied to accomplish digital planning for producing a guide which allows an endodontic or surgical access in a more predictable way. Thus, the aim of this chapter is to discuss the recent advances in the application of digital flow concepts to endodontics.
