- This is the largest diameter flexible needle in the range, combining a 1.30mm lumen with the adaptable properties of Nickel-Titanium
Uses
- Large Curved Canal Repair:
- Specifically designed to navigate significant curvatures in wide root canals or in immature teeth with open apices
- Apexification:
- Ideal for creating an apical plug in larger roots where a substantial volume of MTA is required
- Extensive Perforation Repair:
- Used to seal larger accidental holes in the canal wall or the floor of the pulp chamber that require a flexible approach
- Surgical Retro-Filling:
- Occasionally used in surgical cases where a flexible tip is needed to reach a specific angle for a retrograde filling
Features
- NiTi "Memory Shape" Material:
- The needle can be manually pre-bent to reach a specific target. After being sterilized in an autoclave, it returns to its original straight form
- N°2 Largest Diameter (1.30mm):
- Color-coded Blue, this needle allows for the delivery of a higher volume of material per application compared to the red or yellow versions
- Bayonet Catch Compatibility:
- Designed for a secure, quick-lock attachment to the standard Swiss-made MAP System stainless steel syringe
- Replacement Set:
- Typically includes 1 N°2 Blue NiTi Needle, 8 blue plastic plungers, and 1 dedicated cleaning curette
Benefits
- Efficiency in Wide Canals:
- The 1.30mm diameter allows for faster placement of repair materials in large spaces, reducing the overall time of the procedure
- Adaptable Anatomy:
- The NiTi flexibility allows the needle to conform to internal curves without the risk of "ledging" or damaging the root wall, which can happen with rigid instruments
- High-Density Filling:
- Delivers a pre-compacted 4mm cylinder of material directly to the site, ensuring a predictable, void-free seal
- Durability & Safety:
- Manufactured from medical-grade Swiss materials, the needle is fully autoclavable, ensuring it can be safely reused across multiple clinical cases
