About The Webinar
Using this protocol, the vast majority of treatments can be efficiently performed in one-visit, and patients have reported minimal-to-no discomfort posttreatment. This is achieved by using transformative technology, via the GentleWave System, which can clean complex internal spaces utilizing minimal instrumentation. The system leverages optimum cleaning via broad-spectrum acoustic energy and a powerful vortex of disinfecting solutions This technology has has shown to provide improved patient outcomes by preserving tooth structure and promoting early healing.
Learning Objectives:
- Discover how one practice incorporated some transformative technology to enable successful cleaning and disinfection of complex anatomies with minimal root canal preparations
- Identify factors that enable a smooth transition into advanced and transformative technology
- Assess the rationale for embracing today's advancements into everyday practice

About the Sponsor
The GentleWave® System is an innovative technology platform designed to treat tooth decay by cleaning and disinfecting the microscopic spaces within teeth without the need to remove tooth structure. The system utilizes a proprietary mechanism of action, which combines procedure fluid optimization, broad-spectrum acoustic energy, and advanced fluid dynamics, to debride and disinfect deep regions of the complex root canal system in a less invasive procedure that preserves tooth structure. The clinical benefits of the GentleWave System when compared to conventional methods of root canal therapy include improved clinical outcomes, such as superior cleaning that is independent of root canal complexity and tooth anatomy, high and rapid rates of healing and minimal to no post-operative pain. In addition, the GentleWave System can improve the workflow and economics of dental practices and offers patients an effective, less invasive, and less painful alternative to traditional root canal therapy.
