Unusual Maxillary First Molars with C‐Shaped Morphology on the Same Patient: Variation in Root Canal Anatomy

open access: yesCase Reports in Dentistry, Volume 2019, Issue 1, 2019., 2019
A maxillary first molar should be considered a four‐canal tooth until proved otherwise; however, a clinician should also be aware of the possibility of the presence of C‐shaped root canal configuration with or without possibility of splitting into two or three canals.

Micro‐CT Evaluation of Dentin Preservation by ProTaper Gold and VDW.Rotate in Oval Mandibular Incisors

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Introduction The success of endodontic treatment depends on the effective chemomechanical preparation of the root canal system, ensuring proper shaping, cleaning, and disinfection. Additionally, preserving pericervical dentin may improve the long‐term prognosis of the tooth.

Accuracy of Apex Locator Integrated Endomotors in Estimating Working Length in the Presence of Endodontic Irrigants: An Ex Vivo Study

open access: yesAustralian Endodontic Journal, Volume 51, Issue 3, Page 555-562, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Accurate working length determination is crucial for root canal treatment. This ex vivo study evaluated the accuracy of a standalone apex locator (Root ZX Mini) and two integrated apex locator‐endomotors (EnDrive and X‐Smart Pro+) under different intracanal conditions.

Shaping ability of three instrumentation system in moderately curved canals: A micro‐CT study

open access: yesMicroscopy Research and Technique, Volume 87, Issue 10, Page 2399-2407, October 2024.
TRN, which provides a controlled increase in canal volume, can be used in thin dentin such as the danger zone, however, its use should be supported by copious irrigation and brushing considering the rate of untouched dentin walls. Abstract This study aims to compare the shaping ability of three systems using micro‐computed tomography (micro‐CT ...

Fifteen years of engine‐driven nickel–titanium reciprocating instruments, what do we know so far? An umbrella review

open access: yesAustralian Endodontic Journal, Volume 50, Issue 2, Page 409-463, August 2024.
Abstract Numerous systematic reviews (SRs) have produced conflicting findings on engine‐driven nickel–titanium reciprocating instruments (reciprocating instruments) since Yared's seminal study 15 years ago. This umbrella review analysed SRs examining the clinical and laboratory evidence regarding reciprocating instruments for root canal treatment.
