RESUMO
RESUMEN: El objetivo: de este reporte es presentar el tratamiento endodóntico de un diente ante-rior con obliteración del canal radicular, con la ayuda de la endodoncia guiada. Paciente masculino sin antecedentes médicos relevante, y en tratamiento ortodóntico. Diente 2.1 con historia de traumatismo dento-alveaolar y presencia de dolor a la percusión. En la TCHC se observa obliteración total del canal radicular en el tercio cervical y medio y un área de radiolucidez apical. Diagnóstico: Periodontitis apical Sintomática. Tratamiento: Terapia de canal No vital, con planificación virtual y guía endodóntica. Se utilizó el programa de acceso gratuito, Bluesky Plan®, para la planifica-ción digital de la guía endodóntica. El tratamiento se realizó en dos citas. Conclusión: el uso de tecnología para la resolución de casos de alta complejidad en endodoncia, podría ayudar a mejorar el pronóstico de estos dientes y ser una alternativa más segura para reducir la posibilidad de perforación y preservar estructura dental.
ABSTRACT: The aim: of this case report is to present the endodontic treatment of an anterior tooth with an obliterated pulp canal, with the help of guided endodontics. Male patient with no relevant medical history, currently with orthodontic treatment. Tooth 2.1 had a history of dental trauma and presented tenderness to percussion. The CBCT exam showed a completely obliterated root canal in the cervical and middle third, and apical radiolucency. Diagnosis: Symptomatic Apical Periodontitis. Treatment: Root canal treatment with virtual planning and endodontic guide. Bluesky Plan® free access program was used for the digital planning of the endodontic guide. The treatment: was made in two sessions. Conclusion: the use of technology for the resolution of high complexity cases in endodontics could help improve the prognosis of these teeth and be a safer alternative to reduce the possibility of perforation and preserve more tooth structure.

The localization of partial or completed root canal obliteration is a challenging task in endodontic practice. Recently, guided endodontics has become an alternative solution for those cases. Although this technique has already been used clinically in managing anterior teeth, in this report, we describe 3 complex clinical scenarios of calcified root canals of 1 molar and 2 premolars using guided endodontics. The clinical cases reported here show that technological evolutions should make guided endodontic procedures more widespread because their execution is relatively fast and safe even in the case of the upper molar. Additionally, 12-month clinical follow-up visits showed the effectiveness of the guided endodontic procedures.
