(9 cards)
CBCT indications in endodontics include:
- Pre-operative analysis
- Post-operative evaluation
Examples of pre-operative analysis in endodontics in which CBCT may be indicated include:
- complex surgical cases
- assessment of root canal anatomy
- proximity of apex to anatomical structures
Examples of post-operative evaluation in endodontics in which CBCT may be indicated include:
- documenting success of treatment
- evaluating healing
T/F: A CBCT may aid in assessing calcified canals and the need for apicoectomy
True
When using a surgical guide designed exclusively for endo, the guide must be:
fully seated on both sides
If the lesion has extended through cortical bone it becomes clear:
where to access the apex of the root
T/F: When you raise a flap, there is always a clearly visible reason
False- sometimes there is not a clearly visible lesion after you raise a flap
If you have a calcified #8 describe the requirements for endo treatment planning:
- STL of an intraoral scan
- DICOM volume of the site
