The success of the endodontic treatment depends entirely on precise, proper execution of this step. An access cavity that has been prepared improperly in terms of position, depth, or extent will hamper the achievement of optimal results.
Regardless of the tooth, there are three phases in the preparation of the access cavity: penetration, enlarging, and finishing.
The access cavity is initiated by applying the bur occlusal to the cingulum, almost perpendicular to the palatal surface.
The cingulum is chosen as a starting point, because, in contrast to the gingival margin which can retract and the incisal margin which can abrade, this ridge remains constant throughout the patient’s life.
That's why we offer innovative solutions for every aspect of your root canal therapy cases -- from access and shaping to irrigation, obturation and retreatment.
