Endo Voices welcomes dynamic and disruptive thought leader Dr. John Khademi to insightfully illustrate the paradigm shift contemporary endodontics has seen through unprecedented advancements in technology, concepts and materials. We unpack Endodontics 1.0, moreover, the mechanical objectives and the limitations of process-based outcomes set against the backdrop of biologic/radiographic outcomes. We push the envelope of discussion and evaluate the consequences of weakening of the tooth that convenience-driven straight-line access and obturation-driven shapes created and intertwine principles of "incommensurability”, showcasing how the art and science of endo need to abandon previous principles to predictably progress forward. Dr. Khademi’s uncanny wit and piercing intellect paint a permeating story of the evolution of technological incorporation, which facilitates the optimum marriage of proper instrumentation and irrigants propelled by fluid dynamics to eradicate intra-radicular infection at the highest biological level. Tap in today and discover how the best parts of Endodontics 3.0 are yet to come!

Imagine a world where clinical detection, prognosis and assessment of periradicular pathology happens in real time … from the palm of your hand. How about saying goodbye to the days of diagnosis of post-op pain being made objectively by dentists? This futuristic reality, Drs. Asma Khan and Frank Setzer will tell you, exists among us! This episode of Endo Voices takes a pioneering gaze into the crossroads of endodontics and technology where artificial intelligence discusses treatment options, discerns caries from burnout and basically has the potential to affect every aspect of endodontic treatment from diagnosis and beyond.

In this episode of Endo Voices, Dr. Domenico Ricucci, renowned clinician and histologist, eloquently defines the concept of the patency file and presents his argument for an integrated biological view of endodontic science. His extensive knowledge and passion for histology remind us that assessing healing expounds beyond imaging and clinical presentations. Equipped with a unique background in general medicine from “La Sapienza” University of Rome, Dr. Ricucci presents an engaging perspective of the apical ramifications of teeth and patency objectives. A researcher on a controversial quest seeking where to "end apical preparations", Dr. Ricucci reminds us that filling to the radiographic apex is a fast track to destroying the apical anatomy. Tune in to hear Dr. Ricucci demystify the dentin-pulp complex and ultimately demonstrate how pulpal diagnosis influences outcomes and criteria for success.

The dental world is changing fast and interdisciplinary conversations are consistently more present in clinical and academic discussions. Pediatric endodontist Dr. Julianna Bair decided to capitalize on the intersectionality of these specialties … essentially ensuring proper management of any case she encounters. In this episode, we take a dichotomous journey that elucidates various considerations within this unique space addressing the age-old question: “Parents in or out of the room?” Dr. Bair enlightens us with her hypotheses on the potency of contemporary nitrous and prioritizing IV sedation and why. The comparisons between the specialties in terms of patient management have vast overlap, but a distinction for pharmacological dosing becomes clear as Dr. Bair displays her mathematical wizardry and rattles off antibiotic conversions and formulas for the pediatric patient. Pedo-endo is no child’s play, but with her vibrant and lighthearted demeanor, Dr. Bair gives the impression it definitely is a lot of fun!

Delving into the digital conversation on the restoration of the endodontically treated tooth, in this episode we talk with prosthodontist and director of the New York University full mouth rehabilitation course, Dr. Dean Vafiadis. Dr. Dean’s vibrant and distinguished cantor draws listeners in as he defines FMR concepts, treatment goals and ideal treatment sequence of the endodontically treated tooth. We break down his patient-centered nuanced view around the paradigm shift of restorative endodontics and preserving peri-cervical dentin. Dr. Dean paints vivid anecdotes and draws from the literature to support his take on adhesive dentistry, pre-restorative endo and post placement. This discussion dares to simplify the dichotomous debate of restoring the posterior endo-treated teeth: full-coverage? And which occlusal schemes lead to fewer endodontic and TMJ issues in the future? Dr. Dean generously shares occlusal reduction tips, cracked teeth management and commonsense strategies for optimizing patient satisfaction, office efficiency and production.

In this episode of Endo Voices we dig deep highlighting an important topic no one wants to experience iatrogenically, but which is nevertheless a well-known uncommon risk of treatment: perforations. Perforations and the implications of how practitioners tackle this scenario are paramount. We review this topic with international endodontist extraordinaire Dr. Kreena Patel from London. She aims to restore any voids in listeners’ knowledge with updates on the latest perforation protocols, techniques and materials. She seamlessly weaves in the importance of leveraging technology when developing a diagnosis, as well as differentiates between a bleeding spot from perforation vs. bleeding from an accessory canal. Listen in as we cover the “file flutter” phenomenon and the most critical elements of perforation recognition and location, and how these influence prognosis. Dr. Patel also wows us with her academic and literature prowess and succinctly breaks down optimal uses, properties and setting times of various materials like tricalcium silicates and MTA.
