Guided endodontics is an innovative technique that enhances precision in accessing root canals, particularly in challenging cases like calcified or atypically positioned canals. Using 3D imaging (CBCT) and CAD/CAM technology, a virtual pathway to the canal is designed, followed by the creation of a custom guide. This guide directs the drill or endodontic file accurately to the canal, minimizing errors, reducing procedural time, and preserving healthy tooth structure. Guided endodontics is especially beneficial in difficult scenarios, offering a safer and more predictable outcome compared to traditional methods.
