Synopsis:
Endodontic success is dependent on a variety of interrelated factors, but removal of bacteria from the root canal system is the ultimate goal. It is imperative that all canals are located and cleaned to the root apex to achieve maximum disinfection and clinical success. This CE course places special emphasis on locating the hard to find canals prior to using a mechanical instrument to establish a predictable and reproducible glide path to the root apex. The clinician will have a better idea on how to locate and clean all canals to the root apex to achieve maximum disinfection and clinical success from this course.

Educational Objectives:
Upon completion of this course, you should be able to:

• To integrate clinically relevant strategies for locating common root canal anatomies and provide tips for identifying hard to find canals
• To describe the importance of an enhanced glide path and how to achieve it with a single reciprocating mechanical instrument
• To explain how anatomical complexities within the root canal system impact endodontic treatment and outcomes.
