Anatomically Driven Endodontics

Anatomically centred endodontics, ACE, is a philosophy that embraces instrumentation, irrigation and obturation, while allowing clinicians to reach microbial control in a minimally invasive, safe and efficient manner, streamlining endodontic procedures. This philosophy incorporates adaptive instrumentation, the XP-3D+, which cleans the canal safely and three dimensionally. It also involves a special irrigation mixture of NaOCl, chelating agents and surfactants that promotes deep disinfection with the simultaneous dissolution of organic and inorganic matter. This ultra-conservative and disinfected canal can then be obturated using bioceramic technologies that allow for zero shrinkage and bond to dentin, thus offering a fluid-tight seal.
