The aim of this review was to provide an overview of the applications of digital dentistry technologies in endodontics, such as digital two-dimensional (2-D) and three-dimensional (3-D) imaging techniques, computer aided diagnosis (CAD) and improvement of artificial intelligence (AI) models, computer-controlled access cavity designs and 3-D printing applications. Advantages and disadvantages of these newly introduced technologies were discussed briefly with their indications. Apart from therapeutical or rehabilitative procedures, the use of digital technologies adapted for student training and research simulations were also presented.
