SONENDO GENTLEWAVE®
The GentleWave® System: Transformative, Disruptive, and Innovative Technology to Debride and Disinfect the Root Canal System
October 19 09:30 – 13:00
The complexities and micro anatomy of root canal systems has been well known for many years. What we have not had are predictable realistic methods of cleaning and disinfecting these micro intricacies.
“There has never been a better time to have a root canal….the anatomy has not changed…the biology has not changed but the technology has changed dramatically.”
In recent years disruptive and innovative technologies have been developed that allows clinicians to address the complexities of the root canal systems more predictably than ever before. This workshop will illustrate methods to disinfect and debride systems effectively while conserving valuable peri-cervical dentin and tooth structure.
The efficacy of different and predictable obturation cases of minimal instrumentation will be shown.
Final demonstration will unveil how single visit endodontics and restorative treatment can be a win-win for both patients and providers.
Learning Objectives for Workshop
- Introduce the GentleWave System’s closed-loop Mechanism of Action.
- Understand how the GentleWave® Procedure promotes dentin conservation through minimal instrumentation.
- Discover methods for obturation of minimally prepared canals.
