Abstract

Aim: the aim of this technical note was to evaluate the potential application of dynamic navigation for a minimally invasive finding of the root canal. Methodology: extracted human teeth were fixed into a prefabricated phantom model in place of the correspondent teeth and pre-operatively scanned with the marker plate containing the fiducial markers with a cone beam computed tomography, imported on the ImplaNav software (ImplaNav, BresMedical, Sydney, Australia) and obtaining a 3D reconstruction. Open access cavity was performed with a diamond bur in using real-time navigation. This procedure was aimed to directly identify the pulp horns and the root canal entrances with a unique hole for each canal. Results: all access cavities were prepared according to a minimally invasive endodontics approach with the dynamically guided ImplaNav software. No perforations occurred and all the canals were successfully located. Conclusions: our results demonstrated a possible application of this technology in minimal finding of root canals. This protocol may have potentialities in teaching dental students to start their approach in endodontic field.

动态导航用于微创根管发现:技术说明

目的:本技术说明的目的是评估动态导航在微创根管发现中的潜在应用。方法:将取出的人类牙齿固定在预制的假体模型中，代替相应的牙齿，术前用含有基准标记的标记板进行锥形束计算机断层扫描，导入ImplaNav软件(ImplaNav, BresMedical, Sydney, Australia)，进行三维重建。在实时导航的情况下，利用金刚石钻头完成了开放式孔洞的施工。这个程序的目的是直接识别髓质角和根管入口，每个根管有一个独特的孔。结果:在ImplaNav软件的动态引导下，所有入路均按照微创牙髓学入路制备。无穿孔发生，所有根管均成功定位。结论:我们的结果证明了该技术在最小发现根管方面的可能应用。该方案在牙髓学教学中具有一定的应用价值。
