“…The particular geometry of root canal models is obtained from selected natural root canal systems [2,6,11,46] or represents individual geometrical properties, with different Schneider angles (compare, e.g., [47]), the radiologically determined two-dimension radius of curvature [34] or the endodontic working width [65] being considered to generate these models. Most of the investigated root canal models show an apical diameter between 0.15 and 0.8 mm, a taper between 2 and 6% and a length in the range from 16 to 20 mm [14,[20][21][22]25,29,30,[33][34][35]47,55,56,70,71]. The geometry-based root canal model of the current study has an elliptical cross-sectional apical shape and dimension within the range of existing root canal models.…”

Models of artificial root canals are used in several fields of endodontic investigations and pre-clinical endodontic training. They allow the physical testing of dental treatments, the operating of instruments used and the interaction between these instruments and the tissues. Currently, a large number of different artificial root canal models exist whose geometry is created either on the basis of selected natural root canal systems or to represent individual geometrical properties. Currently, only a few geometric properties such as the root canal curvature or the endodontic working width are taken into consideration when generating these models. To improve the representational capability of the artificial root canal models, the aim of the current study is therefore to generate an artificial root canal based on the statistical evaluation of selected natural root canals. Here, the approach introduced by Kucher for determining the geometry of a root canal model is used, which is based on the measurement and statistical evaluation of the root canal center line’s curvatures and their cross-sectional dimensions. Using the example of unbranched distal root canals of mandibular molars (n = 29), an artificial root canal model representing the mean length, curvature, torsion and cross-sectional dimensions of these teeth could be derived.

“…Root Canal Treatment (RCT) is used to extirpate a damaged or infected tooth pulp and clean and seal the interior of the tooth with gutta-percha to avoid further spread of infection [1]. The pulp of the tooth is a soft chamber within the tooth comprising nerves and blood vessels.…”

Root Canal Treatment (RCT) is one of the most common endodontic clinical procedures performed in the field of dentistry amounting to almost 25 million performed every year. It is thus essential for endodontists to ensure best practices. However, through a recent survey, it has been observed endodontists resort to supplemental methods and protocols during procedures due to the scarcity of precision devices in the market. This not only compromises sound practices but also elevates the risk of operational failures & additional infections at the cost of the patient. Despite this deviation, the survey further highlights that touch and heat devices offer better stability, precision, and safety. This paper sets out to explore the ongoing challenges faced by endodontists in this field particularly in the methods to cut Gutta-percha and seal the canal and establish the need for heating element technology in such procedures.
