Learn Excellence in Root Canal Technique

July 18, 2016 by reid pullen Leave a Comment

Benefits of Root Canal Academy’s Two-Day Root Camp Boot Camp Course

I have seen numerous dentists roll through my 2 Day Root Camp Boot Camp courses these last 3 years and I have received a ton of feedback on whether these courses really help the general practitioner to practice E3 Endodontics. E3 Endodontics means being Effective in technique, Efficient in its application, and thus achieving an Excellent result. E3 Endodontics is where it’s at. If you are not confident and effective during the root canal process than the efficiency is reduced. If the efficiency is reduced than it is more challenging to produce an excellent obturation and final post-op radiograph.

 

LIVE or ONLINE: 4 Qtrs of the Root Canal Game

My goal in teaching the 2 Day Root Camp Boot Camps (Standard RCT and Simple ReTx boot camps) is to help the general dentist “Be Better Today and Tomorrow” while performing root canals and simple Re-Tx’s in their practice. How do I achieve this grand goal?

#1 The 2 Day Root Camp Boot Camps will give you a root canal plan or prescription that works for every case. I call it the Root Canal Playbook. You will learn to follow the 4 Quarters of the Root Canal Game for each and every case.

#2 The 2 Day Root Camp Boot Camps will give you the confidence that you are performing better technique and using it in the correct application.

#3 The 2 Day Root Camp Boot Camps will increase your efficiency and reduce your total root canal treatment time. The live patient demonstration along with lecture, discussion and hands-on shows you how this can be done.

#4 The 2 Day Root Camp Boot Camp will help you boost your office endo production. You will learn to tackle simple to medium cases and complete them in 1/2 time you were before. Material overhead for each endo case averages $50-75 while your molar production can be anywhere from $700-1200 or higher. Not a bad overhead to production ratio!

#5 Lastly, The 2 Day Root Camp Boot Camp will make you better in endodontics forever as long as you consistently apply the 4 Quarters of the Root Canal Game principles.

 

Satisfied Customer

My friend found this online and sent me this unsolicited testimonial:

“Joseph, I recently attended a Dentsply endo weekend Boot Camp, given by Dr. Reid Pullen in Brea, CA. I think it’s the best course (besides cerecdocs, of course) I’ve ever taken. I wanted to feel more confident doing molar endos, finding and obturating MB2, getting around curves, etc. Pullen is an absolute master and excellent teacher. We spent 2 days in his office. Small group of 6. Now I went to feeling indifferent about endo to loving it. Attached is a recently done upper second molar.”    –Dr. E. Prouty

3 Cases in a Row: ProGlider/WaveOne Gold Primary

May 23, 2016 by reid pullen Leave a Comment

It’s another Monday morning in the Endo world and I just finished 3 pretty cool cases in a row with very little effort (at least it felt like that).  I also had another endodontist in my office observing PIPS irrigation so the stress level was higher than normal. But when I start getting stressed I know I can rely on the basic Rootcanalacademy.com principles of Open Orifice, careful Negotiation to Patency, Accurate Working Length, and an Open Glide Path to help lead the way.

On all three of these molar cases (#3, #15 and #31) I used the Proglider (Dentsply Tulsa) glide path file to obtain a very fast and safe Open Glide Path and then the WaveOne Gold Primary (Dentsply Tulsa) reciprocation NiTi file to quickly and safely shape all the canals including #3 and #15 with MB2’s.  I then used Photon Induced Photo Acoustic Streaming to chemically debride the root canal system. The new WaveOne Gold gutta percha cones fit the cut shape like a glove.  I used BioRoot Root Canal Sealer to effectively seal the 4 canal molar systems and walked away feeling pretty good.

I felt very little stress treating these molars (this is not always true) and walked out of the room whistling feeling joyful and energetic.  I love it when I can perform high quality endo and still have lots of energy left for the day. I was even able to go to my 11am JiuJitsu class.
