A device and system for use in a root canal treatment is provided. The device has a probe member and a handpiece for holding the elongate probe member. The probe member has an elongate distal portion capable of being accommodated in a root canal. The probe member has at least one treatment channel with a distal opening in the elongate distal portion. The at least one treatment channel is configured for enabling operation of a suitable root canal treatment tool via the distal opening. At least one illumination channel includes a first light guide having a first proximal end configured for optical coupling to a light source system, and a second distal end in the distal portion for illuminating internal regions of the root c anal during operation of the device. At least one light collection channel includes a second light guide having a first proximal end configured for optical coupling to an imaging system, and a second distal end located in the distal portion for collecting and transmitting light reflected from internal regions of the root canal to the proximal end during operation of the device. A number of methods for monitoring and carrying out various dental treatments are provided.
