| Summary: | The endodontic treatment is a therapeutic modality, which aims to maintain the dental element on the oral cavity, preserving the chewing function and the patient's aesthetics. These procedures are offered to Unicamp's community, through Cecom's Dentristry Department, since 1980s. The endodontic treatment, as all Dentistry areas, evolved significantly since then, and our department, as it could not be different, followed this evolution. With the arrival of new technologies, such as the micro electric engines and Nickel Titanium rotary files, the treatments that were performed with approximately 04 appointments with duration of 1:10 h each on the 1980s, now are performed in 02 appoints with approximate duration of 1:00 h each. This provided a greater convenience to patients and professionals, since it enables that a larger amount of people be benefited with this service type. Thanks to these evolutions, currently there is no more waiting list for the patients to have access to Cecom's endodontic treatment. |
