Aim: To present a novel miniaturized and minimally invasive treatment approach for root canal localization in mandibular incisors with pulp canal calcification and apical periodontitis. Summary: A 51-year-old male patient presented with pain from his mandibular incisors. The patient had a history of severe dental trauma over 30 years ago. Both mandibular central incisors (teeth 31, 41) were tender to percussion and had a yellowish discoloration. They did not respond to thermal and electrical sensitivity tests. Two periapical radiographs from different projections revealed severe pulp canal calcifications and signs of periapical periodontitis. To facilitate the 'Microguided Endodontics' technique, a CBCT and an intra-oral surface scan were aligned using special software. This allowed the virtual planning of optimal access cavities up to the apical third of the root. In this technique, a 3D-printed template guides a customized drill to the orifice of the root canal. After negotiation of the root canals, conventional root canal treatment was performed. This case report demonstrates that minimally invasive and apically extended access cavities are feasible in mandibular incisors with this technique. Key learning points The 'Microguided Endodontics' technique is a safe and minimally invasive method for root canal location and prevention of technical failures in anterior teeth with pulp canal calcification.
