Area of Science:

Endodontics
Dental Technology

Background:

Calcified root canals present significant challenges in endodontic treatment.
Patients with a history of head and neck radiation require careful consideration due to osteoradionecrosis risk.

Observation:

A partially calcified distobuccal canal in tooth #3 was not locatable with conventional methods, including a dental operating microscope and cone-beam computed tomography.
A dynamic navigation system (X-Guide) was employed to precisely locate the calcified canal.

Findings:

The dynamic navigation system facilitated the successful identification and access of the previously unlocatable calcified root canal.
Standard endodontic procedures, including instrumentation, irrigation, and obturation, were successfully completed after canal location.

Implications:

Dynamic navigation systems offer a valuable solution for complex endodontic cases involving calcified canals.
This technology enhances treatment predictability and success rates in challenging endodontic scenarios.
