## Resource

A comprehensive clinical guide for performing modern endodontic therapy. Written by experts Gianluca Plotino and Nicola Maria Grande, the work emphasizes a chemo-mechanical approach where physical instrumentation and chemical disinfection work synergistically to treat dental infections. The authors detail a structured three-step preparation process consisting of scouting and glide path creation, basic canal shaping, and apical finishing. Beyond technical procedures, the text covers essential topics such as metallurgy and instrument evolution, the use of ultrasonic tools for accessing calcified canals, and advanced irrigation protocols. Ultimately, the sources provide practitioners with evidence-based strategies to minimize microbial presence and enhance the long-term success of root canal treatments.
