Minimally invasive endodontics for dentists

The case can be solved. The question is whether you will be the one to solve it.

Every endodontist has frozen in front of a calcified canal — and has watched another clinician solve the case they referred out.

Endoguide: guided endodontic access, calcified canals and digital planning.

10 lessons, 16 hours • 1 year of access • certificate • no equipment purchase

Minimally invasive in practice

See the difference of someone who masters the technique.

From conventional to guided, minimally invasive access: more predictability and structure preserved.

Schematic illustration. The extent of the access varies with the anatomy.

Cases performed by Prof. Luiz Felipe Moreira, MSc.

The starting point

It is not the technique that stops you. It is the confidence in your own hand.

You know the case and you know the tooth can be saved. What you do not know is whether you get there without compromising the root.

  • Calcified canal, entrance with no reference
  • Fear of excess removal or deviation
  • The case you postpone or refer out

Guided Endodontics moves that decision to before the access begins.

Perhaps this is your case

Every dentist has that one case they keep postponing.

You open the tooth expecting the canal, and it is not where it should be.

You watch colleagues solve the cases you refer out, with the same training you have.

You remove more dentine than you would like, without knowing how much is left.

You have a case in your schedule you keep postponing, and you know exactly which one.

You assume you need to buy a CBCT unit and a printer to start.

You refer the case out and the patient does not come back — sometimes taking the family along.

None of this is a lack of technique. It is a lack of information at the exact moment the decision has to be made.

What Guided Endodontics is

What if the hard decision happened before the patient sat down?

The trajectory is studied on the CBCT scan and carried to the chair by a guide.

  • Precise planning. The trajectory defined on three-dimensional imaging, before the procedure.
  • Less structure removed. A more direct approach in cases where exploratory access would cost tooth structure.
  • Less improvisation. Reduced unwanted deviation in more complex situations.
01Imaging

The CBCT scan that reveals the actual anatomy of the case.

02Licence

The reference from the teeth that will support the guide.

03Decision

You define the trajectory before touching the tooth.

04Guide

The plan becomes a physical object in your hand.

05Execution

The access chairside, following what has already been decided.

From planning to chairside

The access arrives ready in your hand.

You decide the trajectory on screen, unhurried, seeing the whole case. Then you seat the guide and carry out what has already been studied.

Who it is for

From student to specialist.

From the fundamentals to the reasoning behind indication. It works for those starting out and for those who already treat these cases.

  • Are starting out in Endodontics, in undergraduate or specialisation training
  • Already treat endodontic cases in clinical routine
  • Are a specialist and want to incorporate digital planning
  • Teach Endodontics and want to update your repertoire
  • Already work with Digital Endodontics
  • Encounter calcified canals and want a structured alternative

This training does not replace clinical training in Endodontics. It is aimed at professionals and students who wish to understand and incorporate the Guided Endodontics workflow within the limits of their own training and professional licensing.

Nor is it a shortcut: the technique requires study, appropriate case selection and a learning curve like any other.

What changes in your routine

The case you refer out is the highest value case in your practice.

Today
  • The complex case leaves your schedule
  • The patient meets another professional
  • You open and decide the trajectory on the spot
  • Chair time is unpredictable
  • Every hard case is a sleepless night
After the course
  • The complex case stays with you
  • The patient comes back — and refers
  • The trajectory reaches the chair already decided
  • You know the time before booking
  • You take the case knowing where it leads

No course guarantees a clinical outcome. What changes is the information you have when deciding.

The objection that stops most people

You do not need your own equipment.

Imaging, planning and the guide stay with partners — just as you already do with radiographs.

Mandatory investment in your own setup R$ 0

What changes in your practice is the reasoning, not the assets.

No scanner No CBCT unit No 3D printer No in-house lab No high-end computer
  1. ScanAt a radiology clinic, as you already do.
  2. Planning and guideWith a specialised partner.
  3. ExecutionYou, in your own chair.

Scan, planning and guide have a per-case cost. What does not exist is an investment in equipment.

What may still be going through your mind

My case is too complex.

The course follows real cases from start to finish — and also shows when the technique is not the way.

I do not have enough cases.

The guide is made per case. No idle equipment, no monthly fee.

I have never used digital planning.

No CAD/CAM experience needed. The software is a tool, not the goal.

What if it is not for me?

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about the course and the technique

Nearly fifty answers, grouped by topic. Tap the topic of your question.

Getting started

No. All you need is a phone. The lessons are recorded and remain available on the platform.

Yes. The content starts with understanding the concept and the workflow, before dealing with the execution of your first guide.

The course is aimed at dentists who perform or intend to perform endodontic treatment. Specialisation is not a formal prerequisite, but a clinical grounding in Endodontics matters in order to get the most from the content.

Yes. Specialisation and postgraduate students are among the course audiences, precisely because they are building their repertoire.

No. The whole point is to organise the process into a sequence that makes sense for those who do not yet work with this workflow.

Final step

The next calcified case can be in the dark. Or with the trajectory decided.

Ten lessons so you stop deciding the trajectory with the bur in your hand.
