Educational Objectives

After completing this webinar, participants will be able to:

  • Discuss the role of biofilms in apical periodontitis and the limitations of current treatment protocols in complex root canal systems.
  • Understand how the EdgePRO works and the role of lasers in the management of root canal systems.
  • Comprehend that laser-assisted endodontics is not just about disinfection but also plays a critical role in the management of other treatment challenges.
  • Re-think the endodontic experience for the dentist and appreciate the benefits of this new treatment paradigm.

Abstract

Laser-assisted endodontics is emerging as one of the most efficacious treatment modalities available in the management of complex root canal systems.  The proven technology of the Er,Cr:YSGG laser, providing improved cleaning and disinfection as well as efficient management of the complications encountered during endodontic therapy, is now available in an economical unit, the EdgePRO. This presentation will highlight the utility of this exciting and affordable technology and will outline its potential for enhanced efficacy, streamlined workflow and single visit treatment.  The resulting reduction in treatment time, with fewer patient visits and reduced stress, significantly impacts the endodontic experience for both the patient and the dentist.
