The practice of endodontics requires precision and great attention to detail. Most endodontic procedures are carried out in dark and confined places, and fractions of millimeters can decide the outcome of treatment.

Due to the intricate nature of endodontic treatment, practitioners have always sought to improve their vision of the operating field.

The dental operating microscope has become an integral part of endodontic practice. For both nonsurgical and surgical endodontic therapy it is indispensable for successful treatment.

Besides the obvious benefits of magnified vision and illumination of the operating field, the scientific literature demonstrates better outcomes compared to treatment without the use of a microscope. The dental operating microscope results in superior care for patients and more effective modern endodontic therapy.

Cone beam CT imaging (CBCT) provides the endodontist with essential information for the planning and execution of certain treatments such as apicoectomies (endodontic surgery). Unlike traditional 2-dimensional radiographs, CBCT can differentiate between different types of tissues and provides an accurate 3-dimensional image of the teeth and surrounding structures exactly as they occur in the mouth.

Digital imaging is an excellent alternative to traditional film X-rays. It provides high-quality images for accurate diagnosis using less radiation than film imaging. The image is projected directly on a screen for easy viewing, making it easier to explain the dental problem to the patient.

Digital images can be easily transmitted to other dental professionals, allowing for more efficient communication. Digital imaging is also an environmentally-friendly technology, as it eliminates the need for chemical processing.

To reduce paper consumption, CESL has chosen to digitize all of its patient records. As all patient data is digitized, the information is well organized and easily accessible, making it easy to communicate with other dentists.
