“…Although a more conservative approach is being promoted in the present day, this has been made feasible by many new technologies and processes. The significance of preservation and a cautious therapeutic strategy cannot be understated [ 3 ]. This innovative kind of root canal therapy, known as minimally invasive endodontics (MIE), takes a different approach that focuses on minimizing structural alterations after treatment [ 2 ].…”

It is the aim of any surgical procedure to restore the tooth to its normal form and function, as well as to restore the tooth's appearance when it is appropriate to do so. One of the primary purposes of endodontic therapy is to clear out the root canal system of germs, pulpal remains, and other foreign matter. A tooth's biomechanical properties have to be compromised in order to achieve this goal; hence the tooth has a poor prognosis for restorative success. The remaining dental structure and restorations have a significant impact on the long-term viability of an endodontically treated tooth. Minimally invasive endodontics (MIE) is an endodontic technique that aims to maintain as much of the healthy coronal, cervical, and radicular tooth structure as possible. Access opening, root canal cleaning and shaping, and surgical endodontics are all possible applications for MIE in endodontic treatment. The objective of new-age endodontics is minimum intervention, and this review article examines a variety of methods that may be combined at each level of endodontics to reach this goal. A favorable outcome with minimally invasive treatment may be achieved while preserving the tooth's natural structure with careful case selection.

“…The endodontic treatment goal is to maintain natural tooth structure as much as possible. 1,2 Shaping root canals is one of the most important steps in root canal treatment. It is critical for proper treatment of root canal as it affects all following procedures, including chemical disinfection and filling of the root canal.…”
