Microrobotics in endodontics: A perspective. [PDF]
Int Endod JAbstractMicroorganisms are the primary aetiological factor of apical periodontitis. The goal of endodontic treatment is to prevent and eliminate the infection by removing the microorganisms. However, microbial biofilms and the complex root canal anatomy impair the disinfection process.
