Accuracy of Dynamic Navigation vs. Freehand Endodontic Access Cavity Preparation in 3-Dimensionally Printed Teeth with Severe Pulp Canal Calcification
DN significantly improves the accuracy of access cavity preparation in calcified canals compared to the FH approach, reducing the risk of complications. Therefore, DN can be a valuable tool for managing challenging endodontic cases. As guided endodontic access preparation can be more time-consuming, extended treatment appointments may be required.
