Endodontics, in its technical and instrumental aspects, is in continuous evolution. The changes that have taken place in the last 20 years in the field of diagnosis, instrumentation, and obturation, make endodontics a more predictable treatment with clinical success over time.
In the field of diagnosis, improvements have been incorporated in magnification, the appearance of CBCT, and the generalized use of parallelises, GVR, or locators.
Of apex. While in the field of instrumentation, NiTi and rotary instrumentation with the continuous or alternating movement have appeared; and in irrigation, the concepts of pre-clogging irrigation and activation of irrigation solutions. Finally, in obturation, thermoplastics have provoked a real revolution in this type of treatment.
The aim of this work is to present concepts that we must bear in mind when planning and carrying out our endodontic treatments and to accompany it with 2 clinical cases developed with a new instrumentation system with alternating movement, which offers many advantages in a predictable way for both the professional and the patient in endodontic treatment.
