An Update on Endodontic Microsurgery of Mandibular Molars: A Focused Review [PDF]
Medicina (Lithuania), 2021 Endodontic microsurgery is a highly predictable treatment option in most cases when conventional endodontic treatment is not feasible. Nevertheless, mandibular molars are still considered by clinicians to be the most difficult type of teeth, with the ...

Effect of the anatomical patterns of maxillary sinus floor on the endodontic microsurgery plan of maxillary sinusitis of endodontic origin [PDF]
BMC Oral HealthBackground Due to the close relationship between maxillary posterior teeth and maxillary sinus floor (MSF), infection from teeth with endodontic disease may spread into maxillary sinus and cause the occurrence of maxillary sinusitis of endodontic origin (

Conservative endodontic microsurgery to protect critical anatomical structures–selective curettage: a case series [PDF]
BMC Oral Health, 2023 Background Endodontic microsurgery has yielded highly successful outcomes in preserving teeth with persistent or recurrent cases of periapical periodontitis that could not be successfully treated by nonsurgical endodontic approaches.

Endodontic Microsurgery as a Primary Treatment for Pulp Canal Obliteration With Apical Periodontitis: Case Reports. [PDF]
Case Rep DentPulp canal obliteration (PCO), commonly following dental trauma, is characterized by progressive canal calcification and may be associated with pulp necrosis and apical periodontitis (AP). Conventional root canal treatment (RCT) may be technically unfeasible or associated with a high risk of iatrogenic complications.

Optimising Outcomes in Endodontic Microsurgery: Evidence, Uncertainties and Future Directions. [PDF]
Int Endod JABSTRACT Endodontic microsurgery (EMS) is a reliable treatment modality for managing persistent or recurrent periapical pathologies, particularly when conventional nonsurgical retreatment is infeasible or has failed. Various factors influence EMS outcomes, among which the lesion type is a key determinant.

New-designed 3D printed surgical guide promotes the accuracy of endodontic microsurgery: a study of 14 upper anterior teeth [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2023 We aimed to design a novel three-dimensional (3D) printed surgical guide and evaluate its accuracy in assisting endodontic microsurgeries. A new 3D printed surgical guide was designed by computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM ...
