Although root canal cleaning and disinfection is the primary focus of laser-assisted endodontics, lasers have other significant applications in endodontic therapy. The challenges presented, and complications encountered while negotiating complex and anatomically challenging root canal systems are numerous, often frustrating to overcome, time intensive, and generate significant stress to both the dentist and patient. This evidence-based webinar will highlight the role of lasers in overcoming these obstacles and will introduce new laser concepts of laser patency, laser recapitulation, laser decompression and drainage. 

Upon completion of this course, you should be able to:
                    
  • Understand the clinical applications of lasers in endodontics.
  •                     
  • Manage refractory disease.
  •                     
  • Manage complex and anatomically challenging root canal systems.
  •                     
  • Comprehend concepts of laser patency, laser recapitulation and laser drainage and decompression.
  •                     
  • Overcome treatment challenges encountered during root canal therapy.
Dr. Justin Kolnick received his dental degree, cum laude, from the University of the Witwatersrand in South Africa, where he was the first dental school graduate to be awarded the University Scholarship for overseas postgraduate study. He received his postdoctoral endodontic training from Columbia University. Kolnick is committed to endodontic education, first as an associate clinical professor in endodontics at Columbia University and later as an attending at Westchester Medical Center, and an associate clinical professor in endodontics at New York Medical College. Although he no longer holds these positions, he continues to lecture on the subject nationally and internationally. He has also published several articles on endodontics. For the past 16 years, his experience and expertise in lasers have made a significant contribution to the development of a comprehensive, laser-assisted treatment concept in endodontics. Kolnick is in full-time private practice limited to endodontics in New York.
