The action of the endodontic instrument on the canals walls produces hard-tissue debris. Their removal is mainly depending on the irrigation procedure. However, the action of the instrument can facilitate or not the accumulation of debris, especially in the light of its kinematics. The Reciproc system (VDW, Munich, Germany) works in a reciprocating motion, removing great quantity of denti…
The principal aim of the endodontic treatment is the maintenance of the dental function. The treatment of the endodontic disease is based on a combination of chemo-mechanical procedures and the sealing of either the root canal or access cavity with material that prevent re-infection. . For this purpose, studies have been developed in the search of a solid material that enables a better se…
The Twisted File (TF) Adaptive system (SybronEndo, Orange, CA) uses a combination of continuous rotary and the reciprocating movement. The Adaptive Movement technology is based on a smart algorithm designed to work with the TF system that allows the file to adapt to intra-canal torsional forces, depending on the amount of pressure placed on the instrument. The result is a better debris re…
