EndoPrep

Endodontics involves more than shaping, cleaning and fillings canals. Dentists differ in the way they plan and view tackling a root canal treatment case. The EndoPrep App was developed with the hope of educating dentists to plan their root canal treatment cases.

The application contains a feature where you can upload images and measure angles and lengths on the image. The measurement tool is useful when you are discussing cases with your colleagues when you do not have radiographic software available. You can also use your camera to upload and measure images. The measurement tool is useful if you use chemically developed films and hence do not have digital software to measure radiographs.

This also includes -an online study guide to help dentists, Endodontic residents and Endodontists access relevant key literature. Free access articles are available. -links to free webinars to help dentists. -links to third-party resources to education patients.

An in-app purchase, 'EndoPrep Clinical', includes -an MB2 guide -an endodontic calculator tool -Guides on how to prepare root canals,

Future updates of the Endoprep App will include: -Guides on how to obturate root canals, -Guides for finding canals, -By downloading the EndoPrep App, you will be notified when there are new features available.
