Effect of Computer-Aided Navigation Techniques on the Accuracy of Endodontic Access Cavities: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

2021

Simple Summary The endodontic access cavity is an essential step in the root canal treatment allowing the access and location of the root canal system. The inaccuracy during the endodontic access cavitie can lead to intraoperative complications such as missed root canals or root perforations, and hence affect the prognosis of the root canal treatment. The development of computer-aided static and dynamic navigation techniques has improved the accuracy of endodontic access cavities and root canal location; however, it is necessary a comparative analysis to clarify which of the computer-aided navigation system is more accurate. This systematic review and meta-analysis aims to clarify the root …
