Minimally invasive guided endodontic microsurgery with Zekrya bur: A 48‐month follow‐up case report

Endodontic microsurgery guided by navigation systems represents a precise and minimally invasive approach for retreatment of apical periodontitis following failed conventional endodontic therapy. Accurate localization and minimal access to the root apex are paramount for successful outcomes and preservation of anatomical structures. Workflow considerations, such as three-dimensional (3D) virtual planning and endodontic guidance represent new crucial aspects for addressing complex cases. This clinical case report presents the successful reintervention of a complex case using a Zekrya bur, operative microscopy, cone beam computed tomography and biocompatible materials. After a 48-month follow-up, complete healing of the treated area was observed. This minimally invasive technique, employing a simple instrument widely available globally, underscores the potential for efficient and predictable outcomes in complex endodontic microsurgical retreatment.
