Lecture:

Treating Complex Cases: Management of Calcified Canals and Severe Curvatures

Abstract:

Endodontic treatment of severe curvatures and calcified canal systems presents 

significant challenges. In this lecture and hands-on workshop, Dr. Plotino will address 

the management of complex endodontic cases, offering practical and clinically relevant 

techniques to enhance both efficiency and predictability. Participants will explore 

effective methods for the navigation of complex canal anatomies and strategies for 

overcoming common difficulties. 

Learning Objectives:

• Recognize Key features of effective and safe instruments for treating challenging anatomies

• Navigate and Shape Complex Canals – Apply advanced techniques for managing calcifications and severe curvatures.

• Prevent Procedural Complications – Anticipate, prevent and address issues such as canal blockage and instrument fracture.

Hands-on:

New trends in root canal preparation obturation and retreatment

The lecturer will do a theoretical part on root canal preparation with R-pilot, Reciproc blue and VDW Rotate and then will perform a practical demonstration on a resin tooth using these instruments to show how to use the files. The participants will follow this  demonstration that will be projected on screen and then they will then practice on resin blocks, resin teeth or extracted teeth, as previously shown by the lecturer.

After that, the lecturer will do a theoretical part and a practical demonstration how to fill canals of the prepared resin tooth using GuttaSmart, explaining this obturation technique. The participants will follow this demonstration on the screen and then they will then practice on filling the resin blocks, resin teeth or extracted teeth that they have previously instrumented.

The lecturer will also give a practical demonstration how to retreat the filled canals with Reciproc blue and Reciproc Mwire and then the participants will perform a retreatment of the previously filled canals.

It is suggested for the participants to bring well-maintained, disinfected extracted natural teeth with opened access cavity and canals negotiated with a size 10 stainlesssteel hand file. It is also recommended that participants may bring their own loupes to get a more realistic overview on the use of the different endodontic instruments and techniques
