Nonsurgical and Surgical Endodontic Retreatment: Updated Protocols by Arnaldo Castellucci. "Comfort" option

All Updated Protocols for Surgical and Nonsurgical Endodontic Retreatment at a Course with the Legendary Arnaldo Castellucci!

Over the past 25 years, endodontic retreatment has effectively become a distinct area of dentistry due to the high complexity of clinical cases and the lack of clear, standardized treatment protocols.

The introduction of the operating microscope, the use of specialized ultrasonic tips, and the application of modern biocompatible materials have been key advances that have fundamentally transformed the approach to diagnosing and treating complex endodontic cases.

All surgical and nonsurgical steps must be performed correctly and sequentially to ensure a successful outcome.

During the course, you will learn:

— How to develop an appropriate treatment plan for surgical and nonsurgical endodontic retreatment
— The use of CBCT as an essential diagnostic tool
— Ergonomics when working with the operating microscope
— Protocols for nonsurgical endodontic retreatment:
 

- Modern approaches to the removal of separated instruments and management of ledges
- Management of perforations using bioceramic materials.
 

— Protocols for surgical endodontic retreatment:
 

- Apical surgery
- Soft tissue management: flap design, incision, atraumatic elevation, and retraction
- Techniques for retrograde root-end filling.
 

— The impact of new technologies on the efficiency, safety, and clinical outcomes of endodontic treatment.

IMPORTANT: the “Seminar. Standard” , “Seminar. VIP”, “Nonsurgical and Surgical Hands-on Workshop”, “Nonsurgical Hands-on Workshop” and “Surgical Hands-on Workshop” participation options are also available for purchase.
