72 - Bioceramics, Materials and Methods – Ep. 72
In this insightful episode of Endo Voices, Dr. Allen Ali Nasseh explores the evolution and clinical applications of bioceramics in endodontics, highlighting how material innovation has simplified obturation and improved patient outcomes. He shares the origin story of bioceramics, including his role in developing the EndoSequence product line and shifting the focus from technique to chemistry through hydraulic condensation. Dr. Nasseh emphasizes proper use to avoid extrusion, explaining that while bioceramics are biocompatible, sealer should remain within the canal. He critiques the extremes of minimally invasive endodontics, advocating instead for an approach that prioritizes effective disinfection and accessible, patient-centered care. Looking to the future, he discusses how AI will enhance consistency and streamline workflows without replacing the clinician, revealing his own efforts in developing an AI-powered consultation tool. Reflecting on his retirement, Dr. Nasseh encourages the next generation to continue innovating while staying grounded in the purpose of delivering better care.
