“…Notwithstanding, it is important to point out that Navident® system has the advantage over other systems such as X-Guide® (X-Nav® Technologies, Lansdale, Pennsylvania) in that it is handpiece-independent. This fact provides great flexibility to the clinician not only to perform osteotomy, root-end resection, and lifting of the sinus floor all with one device, but also to fit different devices such as a high-speed or a low-speed handpiece, a piezoelectric device, and others during the surgical procedure (Stefanelli & La Rosa, 2021).…”

AimEndodontic microsurgery (EMS) of maxillary molars may represent a complex challenge to the clinician due to the location of the roots and the proximity of the maxillary sinus floor. This report aimed to describe the simultaneous use of a computer‐assisted dynamic navigation (C‐ADN) system and piezoelectric bony‐window osteotomy for the transantral microsurgical approach of a maxillary left first molar with adequate root canal filling and symptomatic apical periodontitis.SummaryThis case report highlights the importance of C‐ADN to carry out a minimally invasive buccal surgical access to palatal roots affected by apical periodontitis and provides a practical example to help clinicians make treatment decisions based on the available evidence. Clinical and tomographic evaluations were performed before the surgical procedure and at 24‐month follow‐up. This case was treated using a C‐ADN system fitted to a piezotome for the buccal approach of the buccal roots, maxillary sinus membrane lifting, and for transantral location, root‐end resection, cavity preparation, and filling of the palatal root. The navigation system allowed to achieve an accurate apical canal terminus location and root‐end filling of the three roots with a minimally invasive piezoelectric crypt approach. At the 24‐month follow‐up examination, the patient remains asymptomatic, with normal periapical structures, and regeneration of maxillary sinus walls. It was concluded that the combination of dynamic navigation with piezoelectric bony‐window osteotomy offers enhanced accuracy, tissue preservation, diminished risk of iatrogenic complications, and could maximize success and survival rates in transantral EMS.
