“…These files are then superimposed on an image processing software to design the stent/guide whilst incorporating the path of insertion of the bur and its sleeve dimensions for a safe entry. [ 13 ] The guide can either be milled or printed depending on the systems available, after which the fit and stability should be checked before the start of treatment. The DN technique includes the use of a specifically designed mobile unit or dynamic navigation system (DNS) with an integrated software, which is used with a stereoscopic motion tracking camera, and a calibrated handpiece to provide real-time tracking of the clinical procedure until the previously determined targeted tissue site or reference point is reached.…”

Traumatic injuries to the permanent dentition have deleterious sequelae if not treated adequately. In luxation injuries, it has been observed that tertiary dentin apposition may occur and can lead to calcification and closure of the pulp space. This is commonly referred to as pulp canal calcification or pulp canal obliteration. This often presents a challenge to clinicians when endodontic treatment is indicated. Static guided endodontic therapy has been advocated in such cases and has been successfully employed as a treatment strategy in recent years. This involves the design and fabrication of a digital stent, which serves as a guide for the clinician and provides a straight path to the targeted tissue site. This article reports a case of pulp canal obliteration secondary to a luxation injury sustained due to a vehicular accident. The case was treated using the static guided endodontic approach to achieve a minimal direct access to the targeted pulp chamber space.

“…Therefore, it is crucial to carefully assess each clinical case in order to choose the most appropriate guided endodontic procedure. [21] CONCLUSION During endodontic treatment or retreatment, the concept of minimally invasive endodontics aids in preserving healthy coronal, cervical, and radicular tooth anatomy. Its foundation is the preservation of PCD, or peri cervical dentin.…”

Static and Dynamic Navigation - “The Future Stars”

Over the last few decades technological advancements have led to a significant impact over dentistry and the field of endodontics is no exception to it. It has covered a long way from apex locators and microscopes to digital radiography and intraoral scanners and finally navigation. “Guided Dentistry” term is used explicitly for navigation in dentistry. In the 19th century, navigation in the medical sciences first appeared and it was used to perform stereotactic surgery on the human brain. It was first used in dentistry in the year 2000 to facilitate the placement of dental implants. Navigation in endodontics is based on the concept of minimally invasive endodontics. Guided endodontics can also be called as “Targeted endodontic treatment”. Compared to standard treatment methods, guided endodontics can produce more predictable treatment results. Guided navigation in endodontics is of two types-Static and Dynamic. In Static Guided Endodontics (SGE) the CBCT scan is merged with optical scan to design a virtual drill path using a planning software following which a template is fabricated using 3-D printing. In Dynamic Navigation System (DNS), the virtual drill path is converted into a real time drill path using navigation software. Keywords: [Guided Endodontics, minimally invasive dentistry, Navigation, Static guided endodontics, Dynamic guided endodontics.]

“…Pulp canal obliteration or calci ed canals, is the narrowing of the pulp chamber due to the deposition of hard tissue in the root canal space. Teeth with pulp canal obliteration or calci ed canals usually require challenging and time-consuming endodontic treatment (Ribeiro et al 2022) . When performing endodontic treatment in patients with pulp canal occlusion, despite the application of imaging techniques such as CBCT, access cavity preparation is prone to procedural errors that may result in substantial loss of dentin structure, thus reducing long-term prognostic outcomes.…”

Because the oral and maxillofacial areas are adjacent to important organs such as the brain and the eyes and contain a rich network of nerves and blood vessels, this poses a great challenge for surgery of the oral and maxillofacial areas. Traditional treatment protocols rely excessively on the physician's clinical experience and imagination for preoperative planning and do not provide intuitive and reliable intraoperative guidance to the physician during surgery. With the rapid development of medical imaging technology, computer-aided dynamic intraoperative navigation (CADIN) has been introduced into the field of oral and maxillofacial surgery for its ability to accurately locate key anatomical structures intraoperatively and provide the surgeon with a safe surgical boundary in real time. However, the vast majority of surgeries in oral and maxillofacial surgery are still dominated by traditional surgical methods without intraoperative guidance or computer-assisted static navigation (CASN), and CADIN techniques are not widely used. Therefore, this paper presents a systematic review of the application of CADIN technology in the field of oral and maxillofacial surgery from 2018-2023 by searching the PubMed database, discusses the problems faced in the actual clinical application of CADIN technology in the field of oral and maxillofacial surgery, and proposes solutions to improve the accuracy and application scope of CADIN technology in the future.
