Popis: Endodontics as a field of dentistry has made giant leaps in the past two to three decades. Pioneering technological advancements include magnification, innovative material science, designs and techniques for instrumentation and obturation of the root canal systems. Contrary to this ascent in endodontic material, technique, and equipment innovations, a number of treatment outcome data reveal no statistically significant improvement in overall endodontic success in the corresponding period.1,2,3,4,5,6 The answers to this debate could be fairly uncomplicated but have been widely overlooked in the race for sophisticated technology and innovation in endodontics.
