Clinical outcome of guided endodontics versus freehand drilling: A controlled clinical trial, single arm with external control group
Guided endodontics showed a statistically significant better outcome than freehanded treatment resulting in less technical failures. However, it is a complex procedure which should be carried out by an experienced endodontist with the aid of a dental microscope.
