Dentsply ProTaper Universal Refills NiTi Rotary Files - 19mm Shaping X (SX)

Description: Dentsply ProTaper Universal Refills NiTi Rotary Files exemplify cutting-edge innovation in endodontic instrumentation, offering a comprehensive solution for efficient and precise root canal preparation. These rotary files are designed to seamlessly integrate into the ProTaper Universal System, delivering exceptional performance in shaping root canals.

Key Features:

1. Nickel-Titanium (NiTi) Construction: Crafted from high-quality NiTi alloy, these rotary files combine flexibility and durability. The NiTi construction allows for efficient negotiation of curved canals while maintaining resistance to deformation.

2. Variable Taper Design: ProTaper Universal Refills feature a variable taper design, enhancing the efficiency of canal shaping. The progressive taper adapts to the natural anatomy of the canal, facilitating optimal removal of dentin and debris.

3. Sequential Shaping: The ProTaper Universal System employs a sequential shaping technique, utilizing a series of rotary files with specific tapers and tip sizes. This approach ensures a smooth and controlled transition through the various stages of canal preparation.

Benefits:

1. Efficient Canal Preparation: The NiTi construction, combined with the variable taper design, ensures efficient and effective canal preparation. This is essential for achieving the desired shape while minimizing stress on the root structure.

2. Reduced Procedural Time: The sequential shaping technique streamlines the root canal preparation process, contributing to reduced procedural time. This benefit enhances overall efficiency in endodontic procedures.

3. Compatibility and Interchangeability: ProTaper Universal Refills are designed for compatibility and interchangeability within the ProTaper Universal System. This allows practitioners to seamlessly integrate these rotary files into their existing instrumentation, promoting a consistent and reliable workflow.

The ProTaper files have a progressively tapered triangular cross section with a high cutting efficiency. The contact of the instrument with dentine is reduced to prevent screwing. The variable helix angle, non-cutting guiding tip and unique multiple taper design ensure better elimination of debris. The file respects the root canal path better. Also, the non-cutting guiding tip reduces the possibility of accidental perforation of the floor of the pulp chamber or furcation.

The following files are included in the ProTaper Universal System:

•Shaping files – S1, S2 and SX

•Finishing files – F1, F2, F3, F4 and F5

Excluding the SX file all other files are available in lengths of 21 mm, 25 mm and 31 mm.

Directions of use:

Following working length determination and establishing a reproducible glide path, each instrument should be used progressively down to the working length.

Irrigation is necessary before engaging the files

The instruments are to be cleaned after use

Use ProTaper rotary files at a constant and stable speed between 150 to 350 rpm

Once working length is reached, the file should be withdrawn

Most clinical cases can be completed using the following instrumentation sequence:

S1 - S2 - F1

S1 File is used to prepare the coronal 1/3rd of the root canal

S2 File is used to prepare the middle 1/3rd of the root canal

F1 File is used to prepare the apical portion of the root canal

In cases where the apical portions of the canal are wide the following files can be included after the basic instrumentation sequence:

Wide apical portions - F2 and F3

Very wide apical portions - F4 and F5

When there is a necessity to increase the taper of the coronal portion of the canal the SX file can be used with a brushing action. It can also help in moving the coronal aspect of the canal away from the furcation.
