- Specialized rigid needle is designed for surgeons who need precise access to the root apex from a specific anatomical orientation during endodontic surgery
Uses
- Retrograde Filling:
- Delivering endodontic repair materials (like MTA) into the root-end cavity following an apical resection (apicoectomy)
- Surgical Access for Resorption:
- Filling cervical radicular resorptions that are accessed via a surgical flap rather than through the crown
- Anatomically Tricky Regions:
- Used specifically for "left-oriented" surgical approaches where standard straight or curved needles would block the clinician's view
Features
- Triple-Angle Geometry (Surgery Left):
- Features a unique three-bend design oriented to the left, which provides an ergonomic path to the surgical site without obstructing the microscope or loupe view
- N°0 Smallest Diameter (0.90mm):
- Color-coded Yellow, this is the finest surgical needle available, making it the primary choice for the most constrained apical preparations
- Rigid Stainless Steel:
- Unlike NiTi memory-shape needles, this surgical needle is rigid to allow for controlled compaction of the material against the cavity floor
- Bayonet Catch:
- Equipped with the standard PD MAP System quick-lock mechanism for a secure connection to the Swiss-made stainless steel syringe
Benefits
- Void-Free Material Placement:
- Delivers a pre-compacted 4mm cylinder of material directly to the fundus (base) of the cavity, preventing the inclusion of air bubbles and ensuring a high-quality seal
- Zero Material Dispersion:
- The precise fit of the needle within the cavity prevents MTA from spreading into the surrounding bone or soft tissue
- Maximum Surgical Visibility:
- The specialized triple-angle shape keeps the instrument body out of the clinician's line of sight, which is essential for micro-endodontic success
- Sustainable & Sterile:
- Like other MAP components, this needle is fully autoclavable and reusable, providing a high-precision Swiss-made tool that is both durable and hygienic
