Endodontic microsurgery guided by navigation systems represents a precise and minimally invasive approach for retreatment of apical periodontitis following failed conventional endodontic therapy. Accurate localization and minimal access to the root apex are paramount for successful outcomes and preservation of anatomical structures. Workflow considerations, such as three-dimensional (3D) virtual planning and endodontic guidance represent new crucial aspects for addressing complex cases. This clinical case report presents the successful reintervention of a complex case using a Zekrya bur, operative microscopy, cone beam computed tomography and biocompatible materials. After a 48-month follow-up, complete healing of the treated area was observed. This minimally invasive technique, employing a simple instrument widely available globally, underscores the potential for efficient and predictable outcomes in complex endodontic microsurgical retreatment.
导航系统引导下的牙髓显微外科手术是一种精确且微创的方法,用于治疗传统牙髓治疗失败后的根尖周炎再治疗。准确的定位和对根尖的最小程度暴露对于成功治疗和保留解剖结构至关重要。工作流程方面的考虑,如三维(3D)虚拟规划和牙髓引导,是处理复杂病例的新关键因素。本临床病例报告展示了使用Zekrya钻、手术显微镜、锥形束计算机断层扫描和生物相容性材料成功对一例复杂病例进行再次干预。经过48个月的随访,观察到治疗区域完全愈合。这种微创技术使用了全球广泛可得的简单器械,强调了在复杂牙髓显微外科再治疗中实现高效和可预测结果的潜力。
