Endodontic Resources to Make You Better Tomorrow!
I’m really excited about my new Root Camp Boot Camp book series. I’ve taught over 100 RCBCs and these books are refined with experience of many missions with dental students. Flagship cases! Here’s reconnaissance on Book 2. See prior post for RCBC Book 1. Links here to RCBC and Publications. Please ask me any questions!
RCBC is a collaboration with our valued partner Dentsply Sirona.
Greetings Clinicians,
I’m proud to present a major new content area on our RootCanalAcademy.com website: The ‘4 Quarters of the Simple ReTx Game.’ Let me introduce the course:
We provide and will continuously update video and other content as RTX tools and techniques evolve. Oh, and we have a ReTx book in production too, as part of our Learning Lessons series. That will be on our Publications page. I’m excited about how this new RTX course can help you serve existing patients better, and add a revenue source with simple ReTx.
This 6:30 minute video — part of a 35:00 minute full procedure — walks us through the retreatment process using a standard periapical radiograph. I annotate the image showing which areas of the canal are targeted with each step and tool of the retreatment–watch and learn the basics of the retreatment technique.
Stay tuned to our website for more additional material for the retreatment course. We are here to make you BETTER TOMORROW with 4 Quarters of the Simple ReTx Game!
Please ask any questions about this course. I’d love to hear your perspective and additional needs.

PS By the way, our new RTX course is organized with the same 4 Quarters system that makes learning easier.
“Hey Reid, I just wanted to reach out and say how absolutely amazing root canal academy is. In 2013 my wife J. K. came out to your office for endo PIPs training and I came out the following year. Ever since then I had been doing endo here and there but only simple cases. I had pretty much been doing everything I had learned in your course. Well now that one of our local endodontists was forced to retire I have been doing a ton of endo and with the investment of wave one I have become obsessed with endo. Thank you so much for putting together root canal academy it has made me excited to go back to work! Are you still using the laser? I notice you don’t talk about it too much in the videos. Thanks again and I can’t wait to see what else you have to share.”

Greetings Clinicians,
In several recent posts on Patient Management and Patient Communications (see tags), I’ve talked about approaches and specific techniques to communicate both common as well as more difficult treatment circumstances. In the two videos below, I demonstrate how to communicate with a patient basic information. These videos include:
You will see the purposeful and direct communication, which can be modified with additional information based upon your specific patient circumstances.
Be purposeful. Be direct.
Happy Endo my Friends,
Reid
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.

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
