Resumo: | Abstract A contemporary technological revolution has started a new era in the metaverse of Endodontics, a world of virtual operational possibilities that use an exact replica of the natural structures of the maxillofacial complex. This study describes a modeling method for root canal endoscopy using modern cone-beam CT (CBCT) software in a series of clinical cases. The method consists in acquiring thin CBCT slices (0.10mm) in the coronal, sagittal, and axial planes. A specific 3D volume filter, the pulp cavity filter of the e-Vol DX CBCT software, was used to navigate anatomical root canal microstructures, and to scan them using root canal endoscopy. The pulp cavity filter should be set to synchronize CBCT scans from 2D mode - multiplanar reformations (MPR) - to 3D mode - volumetric reconstruction. This filter, when adopting the option of volumetric reconstruction, the developed algorithm leaves the dentin density in transparent mode so that the pulp cavity may be visualized. The algorithm applied performs the suppression (visual) of areas with dentin density. This ensures 3D visualization of the slices and the microanatomy of the root canal, as well as a dynamic navigation throughout the pulp cavity. This computational modeling method adds new resources to Endodontics, which may impact the predictability of root canal treatments positively. The virtual visualization of the internal anatomy of an exact replica of the canal ensures better communications, reliability, and clinical operationalization. Root canal endoscopy using this novel CBCT filter may be used for clinical applications together with innovative digital and virtual-reality resources that will be naturally incorporated into the principles of Endodontics. |
