Root Canal Filling Systems: Warm Vertical Condensation
Root canal filling systems represents the culmination and of a series of procedural steps. All dentists show a lot of interest when endodontic post-treatment radiographs exhibit puffs, filled accessory canals or shown […]
Obturation, Step No. 1: Cone Fit
Cone fit is the first step and a good starting point for a perfect 3D obturation of the root canal system. During this phase, we need: gutta-percha cones, a dedicated […]
Apical Gauging: measuring the Control Zone
Apical gauging is a mechanical term which clinically indicates the measuring of the apical diameter prior to obturation of the root canal system. This technique envisages the need to confirm […]
A synopsis about the first phases of canal shaping
After the last articles, by Fabio Gorni, Massimo Giovarruscio and Enrico Cassai, it is important to make a point of preflaring, scouting and glide-path preparation, the first phases of canal […]
Glide Path Management: tips and tricks
“…I’ve often said on stage that I have two things to teach for the rest of my life and one is Endodontic Access Cavity Preparation and the other is Glide […]
The working length
After having realized a minimally invasive access cavity and removed the coronal interferences (preflaring) the next step is passed to the scouting of the apical third canal as described in […]
Mandibular Premolars: Teeth not to underestimate
The success of endodontic treatment depends on removing microorganisms from root canal system, three dimensionally sealing and the placement of a good coronal seal to prevent communications between oral cavity […]
Scouting The Root Canal
As discussed on the previous article, the manual preflaring creates a glide path for safer use of hand files and NiTi rotary instrumentation. Canal scouting is the first phase of […]
Coronal Preflaring
After access cavity, Preflaring, Canal Scouting and Glyde Path are the first phases of canal instrumentation and it has also been noted that, during these phases, the clinician might more […]
Shaping&Cleaning of the endodontic space: the Style Italiano Endodontic Philosophy and techniques
Endodontic diagnosis, therapies and follow-up procedures can be the most complex of dental treatments; among these, shaping the root canals has always been considered as the basic and most important […]
Ultrasonics in Endodontics: Part 2
Having reviewed the history of ultrasound and ultrasonic tips in "Ultrasonic in Endodontics: Part 1" (http://styleitaliano.hime.host/ultrasonics-in-endodontics-part-1) in this second part will be highlighted the clinical applications of these tools, that […]
Ultrasonics in Endodontics: Part 1
Around the end of 1950 the ultrasonic technology has had a wide spread not only in the field of hygiene and periodontology, but also in endodontics. Nowadays the operators thoroughly […]
