Root canals are technique sensitive... We rely on our senses (mainly tactile sensation and vision) to prevent instrument separation, over-instrumentation, and perforations. As professionals, we are EXCELLENT at preventing and detecting misadventures. However, it is exhausting and impractical to prevent every error.

After this course attendees will be able to:
  • Recall points-of-failure in endodontic instrumentation
  • Consider how patented ReFlex dynamic motion increases efficiency of instrumentation without compromising predictability
  • Recognize how an integrated system (apex locator + endodontic motor) improves length-control  


Recommended Audience: Dentist
