Types of Rotary Endodontic Instruments
Are you victim of marketing, Struggling/aspiring to Do Good/great Endo-CLICK HERE
Even untreated case Heals -see pic below, tooth with vital pulp in apical area also will recover more easily, but as a professional you are resonsible to give all patients best chance to HEAL- by doing a complete cleaning..with focus in apical area
pic B after 31 months, crown is breaking down, apical is healing SEE DETAILS There are over 65 Systems today in market, how they differ, which one will help you get better success ? Here is a list of almost all systems WHY Protaper is dangerous -they strip healthy dentine and tend to cause more fracture ...CLICK HERE+++++ LINK 2 Most important quality of your Endodontic instruement is flexibility, Test your instrument to determine its stiffness, greater the rigidity of instrument, more chance of breakage/failure and all other complications- see two videos below
Now with the advent of CBCT many things are becoming clear. Inefficiency and problems of tapered instruments were not being detected in 2 D radiographs. As you can see in the pic, we have super imposed a popular tapered instrument on a typical root canal. And you can see how it will transport the canal/cause strip perforation because of its rigidity. Please try and test and flexibility of your tapered instrument and compare it to the natural shape of the canal. Tapered system do not properly clean apical area as was found in this CBCT study CLICK HERE
Read about the TRUTH in Endodontics
Single file rotary endo is latest READ ABOUT IT HEREIts mad world of Rotary Endo, every few years companies make minor variation and change name. We have hard time to keep up with this. But one thing is clear, as of start of 2016 everyone (almost) agrees that taper should be NO more than 04 and attention should be paid to proper apical cleaning.

Tapered systems do have value and should be used with caution with proper understanding of root anatomy, READ THIS PAPERBut Tapered systems do not clean the apex, Coronal and Middle third YES, apical Third NO, (SEM analysis of the root canals showed no differences between groups. Clean dentine surfaces were seen in the coronal and middle thirds, but smear layer and debris remained in the apical third of the root canal with both systems.) Read this paper (neither system could give clean dentine surfaces free from smear layer and debris in the apical third) It is last line in Results para
