OVERVIEW
The key to successful Endodontics is a grasp of the basic principles of treatment, microbial control, cleaning & shaping and seal of the canal system. ENDO 101 presents a philosophy of treatment grounded in these principles and coupled with over forty-five years of clinical experience.

Today’s technological advances are integrated with the basic tenants of treatment to achieve Endodontic success with more ease, decreased stress, in less time and with greater consistency of favorable results. This presentation is designed to introduce you to the newest & most effective and safe cleaning, shaping, and obturation technology available. You will be given the "nuts and bolts" for a crown down technique using Sybron K-3 & the newest innovation in nickel titanium rotary instrumentation, the TF File. You will be able to fill canals with RealSeal, a polymer based bonded root canal filling material with the vertical condensation. Down packing and back filling will be accomplished with the all in one Elements Obturation Unit.

Finally you will be introduced to RealSeal 1 the bonded obturator, the next generation in carrier based delivery systems.
