Endodontic treatment has evolved significantly from simple beginnings, and the success rate of this treatment has increased dramatically in the past decade or so, allowing clinicians to save teeth predictably and safely. But how successful is todays endodontic therapy? Is it still worth saving teeth? This course will explore the classic and current literature and report practically on how we can achieve long-term success in endodontic treatment without using expensive and/or complex techniques.

Anatomically oriented and conservative preparation of the root canal system is the best approach for long-term success in endodontics. The Anatomically Centered Approach proposed in this course allows us to sacrifice less dentin, enhance the irrigation process significantly, and seal the root canal system with the best science has to offer today. Anatomically Centered Endodontics is not about a new instrument, equipment or product, but the combination of scientifically proven techniques and materials in one simple, biologically driven, and inexpensive workflow. The primary purpose of this course is to help clinicians obtain long-term success in their endodontic cases without the need for complex or expensive equipment while providing the best possible care to their patients.
