Lecture Series on Technology in Endodontics

Dr. Scott Resnick teaches about the advantages of advanced technology in endodontic care.

NEW YORK, March 30, 2016 /PRNewswire-iReach/ -- Renowned Endodontist Dr. Scott Resnick, DMD, of NYC Endodontics, gave a lecture on using technology in endodontics on Monday, March 21. This is the latest installment in a series of lectures on the topic in and around New York City.

Resnick's talk focused on cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) and the need for microscopes during treatment.

Endodontics is the field of dentistry focused on the treatment of diseases of dental pulp, the inner layer of the tooth. When working in such tiny spaces, getting a detailed and accurate view of the treatment area is essential for successfully performing root canal therapy and other procedures.

CBCT is a new technology that provides a 3D rendering of a patient's tooth. These scans are capable of showing structures and pathology that would be impossible to see in a traditional 2D x-ray. "It's like a cat scan for teeth," Resnick explains.

The scans are non-invasive, painless, and highly accurate, with a low level of radiation. The machine is an invaluable diagnostic tool for Endodontists.

"In my estimation, no Endodontist should be without one in their office," says Resnick.

Resnick also spoke on the importance of using microscopes during procedures. It is the standard of care for magnification, a necessity while working inside the confines of a single tooth.

"Every procedure in our office is done under a microscope," says Resnick. In fact, every treatment room at NYC Endodontics is equipped with one.

Having stood as the Chief of Endodontics at Mount Sinai for 23 years, Resnick is a respected expert in his field. He maintains his position as a leading New York Endodontist by keeping a constant lookout for technical developments to improve the quality of his care. By sharing this knowledge with colleagues, many more patients will benefit from these advances.

Last week, he spoke at the Middlesex County Dental Society in New Jersey. In previous talks, he has touched on high tech materials in the industry and irrigants, as well as other tools that can improve patient care. 

NYC Endodontics maintains a modern, innovative approach to dentistry that targets each patient's unique goals regarding tooth repair and endodontics in New York. The practice includes two separate offices and employs modern tools, techniques, and products to deliver top quality care to everyone they treat.
