You don&#8217;t need big lab support. The unit itself provides all the technology you need.\u00a0 With some calibration and practice using the equipment you can sit down and do the surgery and it&#8217;s not going to take a lot of extra time.&#8221;\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<h3><em><strong>The whole picture: A study showed DNS offers the tools to treat some of the most difficult cases.\u00a0 A resident completed award-winning work before graduation as a result of great mentorship. A small program demonstrates what&#8217;s possible with a shared vision and passion for saving more teeth.\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/em><\/h3>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Previous studies established the advantages of a dynamic guide over a static printed surgical guide.\u00a0 Having shown that both novice and experienced surgeons could complete these complicated procedures, future research will explore the learning curve for clinicians of different experience and skill levels with an eye toward informing the practical application of the technology in everyday use.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Research at University of Maryland showed that a clinician can become proficient in the new technology after completing about 20 simulated procedures, &#8220;which is not a lot,&#8221; says Dr Frederico Martinho, corresponding author and the Foundation&#8217;s 2022 Educator Fellow.\u00a0 &#8220;On average both experienced and novice surgeons cut their operating time in half compared to freehand.&#8221;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><b>\u00a0&#8220;We&#8217;re just trying to identify what&#8217;s the real value in all of this,&#8221; Tordik explains. &#8220;Does it allow you to do things that would otherwise be too difficult so that in the end we can save more teeth?&#8221;\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>For one example of the benefits, Tordik recalls a new case in the clinic of a patient who was turned away by an endodontic practice regarding the distal root on a #30 not amenable to retreatment because there was a large post in the distal canal.\u00a0 The patient, a physician who had worked in medical residency programs, came to the school intent on saving the tooth &#8216;because if anyone&#8217;s going to figure a way, he believed we can.&#8217;\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;When we checked yesterday, we do have surgical access but it&#8217;s still challenging for direct vision. So using the technology helps you overcome that and get a good result&#8230;&#8221;\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Yet there&#8217;s still more to the story.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><b>&#8220;What&#8217;s really important is the whole picture,&#8221;<\/b> says Dr Tordik.\u00a0 &#8220;This study isn&#8217;t just something we threw together.\u00a0 It represents the results of years of work and what&#8217;s the next step? And then what&#8217;s the <i>next<\/i> step?&#8221; which led to the award-winning work.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>With a newly-graduated resident Dr Sarah Aldahmash as the first author and Foundation Educator Fellow as its principal investigator, &#8220;this is just another example of Fred&#8217;s mentorship&#8230;&#8221; Tordik asserts. &#8220;This was her master&#8217;s degree project. It wasn&#8217;t something other people did, and she put her name on it. [Sarah] participated in the methodology development and did the bulk of the work. It wasn&#8217;t just done over a weekend, there was a lot of planning involved, including the collaboration between our division and the anatomical services lab at the medical school. And they got all of that in before she graduated a month ago.\u00a0 It was such a great learning experience. And then to have the study recognized by the <i>JOE<\/i> as a top paper in technology while she was still a resident &#8230; That&#8217;s just great mentorship&#8211;I don&#8217;t know that you could have a better example. We couldn&#8217;t ask for a better result.&#8221;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, Tordik notes, &#8220;we&#8217;re not one of these programs with a long history of research and big names and lots of money..\u00a0 We&#8217;re none of that. We&#8217;re just a well-balanced CODA-accredited program that has struggled with recruiting and retaining faculty.\u00a0 We&#8217;re very small&#8211;we&#8217;re not even a department, we&#8217;re a division in the school.\u00a0 The really great part of all this that should be really encouraging for other programs our size is, look what can happen when you just get a few people together who are like-minded and have a passion for what they&#8217;re doing. It just goes to show that anybody can do it if we can.&#8221;\u00a0<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Your Foundation Dollars at Work Guiding the way: A JOE Basic Research-Technology 2023 publication award winner illustrates the broad impact of supporting the Foundation\u00a0 Among the most recent papers recognized as best in class by the 2023 Journal of Endodontics Publication Awards, one stands out to illustrate the value and full impact of contributing to&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":45,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"tpl-full-width.php","format":"standard","meta":{"content-type":"","_relevanssi_hide_post":"","_relevanssi_hide_content":"","_relevanssi_pin_for_all":"","_relevanssi_pin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_unpin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_include_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_exclude_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_no_append":"","_relevanssi_related_not_related":"","_relevanssi_related_posts":"","_relevanssi_noindex_reason":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3915","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-research"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.1.1 -
