Objective: The objective of this systematic review was to comprehensively assess the literature regarding the applications, accuracy, advantages and limitations of dynamic navigation in endodontics.
Methods: Case reports and laboratory studies in the English language, which used the Dynamic Navigation System (DNS) for endodontic application and assessed the accuracy of treatment, the time required for treatment and iatrogenic errors were included. PubMed, Scopus, Embase and Web of Science were searched for eligible articles (up to July 2021).
Aim The aim of this systematic review and network meta-analysis was to identify the best irrigant activation technique (IAT) for the removal of accumulated hard tissue debris (AHTD) from the mesial root of mandibular molars evaluated using micro-CT studies.Methods The research question was based on the PICO format. Four electronic databases - PubMed, Scopus, Embase and Web of Science - were searched for articles up to June 2020.

Methods: Forty first and second mandibular molars were randomly assigned to 4 groups (n = 10/group) as follows: group 1, control (intact teeth); group 2, traditional access cavity (TradAC); group 3, conservative access cavity (ConsAC); and group 4, truss access cavity (TrecAC). After endodontic treatment, teeth were restored with SDR core (Dentsply Caulk, Milford, DE) and subjected to thermocycling followed by dynamic and static loading with a multiaxial fatigue testing machine (Instron, Canton, MA).
