The “Daily Endo Shaping” course by Dr. Francesca Parducci provides a comprehensive and up-to-date training program dedicated to modern endodontic shaping. Participants will learn validated clinical protocols designed to minimize procedural errors and enhance treatment success—from initial canal management, preflare and glide path creation, to minimally invasive shaping using Procodile Q and FQ systems. Special focus is placed on complex, curved and calcified canals, apical finishing techniques, and obturation with bioceramic sealers. The hands-on session allows participants to practice shaping on transparent models using advanced endodontic motors, ensuring practical, clinically relevant skills for everyday dentistry.
What to do before shaping:
Manual probing
Pre-flaring
Glide path
Shaping glide path: the key to success
Modern minimally invasive shaping:
Continuous rotation and reciprocation
The ProcodileQ system
Root canal shaping with the FQ rotary system
Management of calcified and curved canals:
How to avoid mistakes and achieve objectives
Apical finishing:
Working length
Apical gauging
Visual gauging
Root canal obturation with bioceramic sealers:
Materials
Technique
Clinical advantages
Restoration of the endodontically treated tooth
Biomechanical analysis of the remaining dental structure
Peripheral build-up
Fiber post: when, how many, which type
Post cementation
Dedicated workstations will allow participants to perform the shaping of multiple canals on transparent models, using the different available systems (continuous rotation and reciprocation). The exercises will be carried out with the EnDrive endomotor and the EnGo micromotor, under the constant supervision of the lecturer.
This course is intended for general dentists and endodontists who wish to acquire or refine effective, up-to-date, and reproducible clinical protocols for root canal shaping and obturation. It is suitable both for clinicians who are new to mechanical endodontics and for those looking to enhance the management of complex cases using the latest systems and technologies.
All materials are provided by the organization.
