Which tooth is it? How do I get the patient numb? Which filesystem should I use? Technological advances will allow you to provide efficient and excellent endodontic care for your patients. This evidence-based lecture presentation will allow you to separate the facts from the fiction with diagnosis and treatment planning; anesthesia, access, isolation; recent improvements in the delivery of irrigation solutions that have enhanced the reduction of bacteria and debris in the root canal system; and the instrumentation phase of endodontic treatment with locating the canal orifices, negotiating the canals, opening the orifice, reconfirming working length, and utilizing "cutting edge" rotary/reciprocation instruments. 

1.      List 15 steps of diagnosis emphasizing medical/dental history, radiographs.

2.      Outline the progression of local anesthetics, access, and isolation.

3.      Describe the steps of rotary/reciprocation instrumentation.
