- This is a diamond-coated steel tip designed for specific, precise tasks during non-surgical endodontic procedures
Uses
- Finishing the access cavity:
- Refining the margins and walls of the access opening
- Removing dentin overhangs:
- Eliminating excess dentin that can hinder visibility or access to the canal system
- Removing calcifications:
- Breaking down mineralized obstructions within the pulp chamber or coronal third of the canal
- Removing filling materials:
- Used to help remove gutta-percha or other restorative materials during retreatment procedures
Features
- Material:
- Constructed from high-quality steel with a 76μm (micron) diamond coating
- Dimensions:
- It has an 18mm length and a 5% taper, allowing for access to the coronal third of the root canal and pulp chamber
- Design:
- A thin and straight design enables precise application of ultrasonic energy in restricted areas
- Compatibility:
- Intended for use with Acteon Satelec Newtron ultrasonic generators and handpieces
- Irrigation:
- Designed to be used with irrigation flowing to the tip's end, maximizing efficiency through cavitation and cooling the treatment site
Benefits
- Precision and Control:
- The diamond coating and specific dimensions allow for highly controlled and precise removal of materials and dentin, minimizing the risk of iatrogenic damage to healthy tooth structure
- Efficiency:
- The robust diamond coating effectively and efficiently cuts through tough materials and calcifications, saving valuable clinical time
- Versatility:
- Addresses several critical steps in endodontic access and retreatment with a single, reliable instrument
- Enhanced Safety:
- Proper irrigation and controlled linear vibrations help preserve surrounding tissues and ensure patient comfort
