Artificial Intelligence and Digital Impressions: The Positives and the Pitfalls
ABSTRACT Digital impressions are now central to contemporary dental workflows, driven by advances in CAD/CAM manufacturing and intraoral scanning technologies. In parallel, rapid progress in artificial intelligence (AI)—particularly deep learning—has led to its widespread integration into digital impression systems.

Is Cone‐Beam CT Reliable for Apical Foramen Assessment? A Micro‐CT–Referenced Study
ABSTRACT This study evaluated the diagnostic accuracy of two cone‐beam CT (CBCT) dose protocols for identifying the number and trajectory deviation of apical foramina. Forty lower molars were scanned in Micro‐CT. Thereafter, all teeth were inserted into the mandible sockets and a titanium implant and an endodontically treated tooth with a cobalt ...

ABSTRACT Achieving profound local anaesthesia during mandibular molar root canal treatment can be challenging. This study evaluated procedural pain and supplemental anaesthesia used, considering endodontic diagnosis and buccal bone morphology. Seventy‐seven patients undergoing primary root canal treatment completed a post‐treatment survey questionnaire

Discuss the Rationale for Minimally Invasive Endodontics and the Merits and Demerits of the Concept
ABSTRACT Minimally invasive endodontics (MIE) places emphasis on the conservation of sound tooth structure and viable pulp tissue during endodontic procedures such as root canal treatment (RCTx) and vital pulp therapy (VPT). The use of minimal access cavity designs and conservative canal preparation dimensions have been investigated as a way to improve

ABSTRACT This study evaluated angular and linear positional changes of the second mesiobuccal (MB2) canal orifice in maxillary first molars and proposed a guideline for its localization. Twenty‐eight extracted maxillary first molars with four canals were analysed. After access cavity preparation, all canals except MB2 were instrumented. The initial and
