Guided Endodontics: Three-Dimensional Planning and Template-Aided Preparation of Endodontic Access Cavities

What's Hindering Dentistry From the Widespread Adoption of CT-Guided Surgery?
Abstract:
Although computed tomography (CT)-guided technology has been shown to increase implant placement accuracy, decrease surgical complications, and improve the predictability of implant case outcome, many in the dental implant community continue to resist using it for three main reasons: time, money, and fear. While it is true that there are additional preparatory steps necessary in patient case planning and the practitioner must invest in unfamiliar technologies and overcome a learning curve, increased efficiency, improved restorative outcomes, and clear benefits to both patients and practitioners make a strong case for adopting this approach.

Computed Tomography
The technique was invented in the 1970s and is based on the principle that as X-rays pass through the body, they are absorbed or reflected at different levels. In the technique, a patient lies on a motorized platform while a computerized axial tomography (CAT) scanner rotates...
