Sealer and Reciprocating Instrumentation – An Insight into Science & Practice

Over the past 15 years, reciprocation technology has had a major impact on endodontics by combining efficiency, safety, and simplicity. But how well does this development align with new bioceramic obturation materials? Is there a synergistic relationship between optimized canal shaping and obturation?  

In his presentation, Prof. Dr. Gustavo De-Deus (Brazil) explores these questions and explains the scientific principles behind reciprocating motion.

Learning Objectives
This course aims to teach learners how to:

• Explain the scientific principles and clinical rationale behind reciprocating instrumentation in modern endodontics

• Assess the benefits of reciprocation technology regarding efficiency, safety, and preservation of tooth structure

• Manage challenging root canal anatomies using a minimally invasive reciprocating workflow

• Understand the relationship between canal shaping and bioceramic obturation materials to support predictable treatment outcomes

• Apply the principles of biologically oriented and minimally invasive root canal preparation
