MUMBAI, India, Jan. 9 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202521058717 A) filed by Suryawanshi, Tejas; Chandak, Manoj; Datta Meghe Institute Of Higher Education & Research; Jawaharlal Nehru Medical College; Sharad Pawar Dental College; and Yeshwantrao Chavan College Of Engineering, Wardha, Maharashtra, on June 19, 2025, for 'a radiographic guided ultrasonic navigation system.'
Inventor(s) include Suryawanshi, Tejas; and Chandak, Manoj.
The application for the patent was published on Jan. 9, under issue no. 02/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention relates to a radiographic guided ultrasonic navigation system for endodontic procedures, designed to enhance precision in instrument retrieval from root canals. The system comprises a Direction Dial for setting precise angulations based on radiographic data, an Angulation Gauge for controlled adjustments, an ultrasonic file attachment mechanism for secure positioning, and a calibration mechanism for fine-tuned vibration delivery. By translating radiographic planning into real-time clinical guidance, the system directs ultrasonic vibrations precisely to the separated instrument, minimizing dentin loss and reducing treatment time. The guiding interface provides real-time feedback, ensuring optimal positioning. The system is particularly useful for retrieving fractured files in curved and complex root canals, handling cases of canal transportation, and refining platform preparation. This innovation significantly improves the efficiency and accuracy of endodontic procedures, benefiting both experienced dental surgeons and students learning ultrasonic retrieval techniques."
