To provide a canal shape that is conformable to sealing

To provide a biological environment that is conducive to healing.

Understanding the ramifications of file and technique design relative to canal anatomy enables the dentist to consistently achieve the most excellent treatment with the least risks

Metallurgical Characterization of Thermomechanically-treated NiTi Instruments

Alapati et al found that heat treatments at 400C, 500C, and 600C raised the Af temperature of ProFile to 45C–50C, and heat treatment at 850C caused a loss of SE behavior and recrystallization of the wrought microstructure.

M-Wire (Dentsply Tulsa Dental Specialties) was introduced in 2007 &is produced by applying a series of heat treatments to NiTi wire blanks.

•In 2008, SybronEndo to create a NiTi endodontic instrument—TFs.

•According to the manufacturer, TF instruments were developed by transforming a raw NiTi wire in the austenite phase into the R-phase through a thermal process.

•CM Wire (DS Dental, Johnson City, TN) is a novel NiTi alloy with flexible properties that was introduced in 2010.

•Manufactured using a special thermo mechanical process that controls the memory of the material, making the files extremely flexible but without the shape memory of other NiTi files.

Why Rotary..???

• Improved safety and consistency of result.

• Improved efficiency.

• Improved procedural simplicity

Dr. Stephen. Buchanan

Page 23: Rotary in endodontic

23

What are the components of a file?

Manufacturers have placed great emphasis on various NiTi rotary design details but only two major factors have been identified that impact shaping potential-

•Cross-sectional design

•Tip configuration

Page 24: Rotary in endodontic

24

Page 25: Rotary in endodontic

25

•All currently available rotaries have noncutting tips, but some have radial land areas while others have a nonlanded design .

• Generally, radial lands make preparation slower but safer while a nonlanded rotary cuts more rapidly, but can also lead to preparation errors. When used according to their specific guidelines both types of rotary files perform well.

•As a general rule, fine and flexible files are vulnerable to torsional load but are resistant to cyclic fatigue.

American Association of Endodontists 2008

Page 26: Rotary in endodontic

26

•Conversely, more rigid and larger files can withstand more torque but are susceptible to cyclic fatigue. The greater the amount and the more peripheral the distribution of metal in the cross section, the stiffer the file. Therefore, a file with a greater taper and larger diameter is more susceptible to fatigue failure; moreover, canal configuration becomes important here.

•A coronal root canal curvature is more dangerous than an apical one in terms of fracture, and a very acute canal curvature generates more fatigue than one with a larger radius

2. If a 10 K-file moves to length easily, is loose or very loose, use WaveOne Primary file.

3. If a 20 hand file or larger goes to length, use WaveOne Large file

Page 61: Rotary in endodontic

ReciprocThe Reciproc instrument series possesses many similarities to the WaveOne set of instruments

But differs mainly in the cross sectional design and as well as the sizes of the three instruments available

WaveOne instruments are based on the ProTaper

The Reciproc instruments are based on Mtwo,

R25 (size: 25/0.08) for smaller canals

R40 (size: 40/0.06) for medium canal

R50 (size: 50/0.06) for larger canals

Advantages of Reciprocation InstrumentationTorsional Fatigue On The Instrument

Cyclic Fatigue Life Of The Instrument

Safer Endodontic Instrumentation

Disadvantages of Reciprocation Instrumentation

•Increase in the amount of debris extrusion during instrumentation procedure.

•Induction of dentin damage or cracks in dentin resulting from reciprocating instrumentation techniques

Page 68: Rotary in endodontic

68

Reciprocal motion showed a significantly higher cyclic fatigue resistance in all brands compared with continuous rotation

JOE — Volume 39, Number 2, February 2013

Reciprocating motion and R-phase increase CF resistance.

TF was significantly more resistant to CF when it was used at 300 rpm.

JOE — Volume 39, Number 4, April 2013

Under the conditions of this study, root canal preparation with both rotary and reciprocating instruments resulted in dentinal defects. At the apical level of the canals, reciprocating files produced significantly more incomplete dentinal cracks thanfull-sequence rotary systems

Page 70: Rotary in endodontic

Is Shaping Actually Possible..?

•All instruments maintained the original canal curvature well and were safe to use.

•The use of Mtwo and Reciproc instruments resulted in better canal cleanliness in the apical part compared with ProTaper and WaveOne.

International Endodontic Journal, 45, 449–461, 2012

Page 71: Rotary in endodontic

71

One F2 file can be safely used to the working length of curved canals at least six times under reciprocating motion.

Reciprocating preparation with only one F2 file was much faster than root canal instrumentation with continuous rotation

Remaining endodontic filling material was observed on the canal walls of all teeth regardless of the technique used. Hand files combined with Gates–Glidden burs (group I) and the reciprocating technique (group III) removed more filling material from the canal walls than the Mtwo R files.

The reciprocating technique was the most rapid method for removing gutta-percha and sealer, followed by the rotary technique and the hand file technique

Hyflex EDM files demonstrated significantly higher cyclic fatigue resistance.

Although PTG and PTU have similar cross-sectional design, PTG instruments presented higher cyclic fatigue and torsional resistance than PTU instruments.

The enhanced alloy properties of PTG might be considered as the main reason for those differences

The most efficient cleaning protocol with the lowest level of residual biological organic debris was found in instruments that were cleaned mechanically with a nylon brush, pre-soaked in 3% sodium hypochlorite for 10 minutes and ultrasonically cleaned in an enzymatic detergent for 15 minutes.

Mechanical cleansing using a brushing showed significantly better effectiveness thancleansing with gauze

The methods used to clean endodontic instruments appear to be generally ineffective for the removal of biological debris.

The best method was the one that included mechanical, chemical and ultrasonic cleaningof the instruments

Page 90: Rotary in endodontic

•Hand and ultrasonic cleaning of instruments immediately after use

•Autoclave

Page 91: Rotary in endodontic

• Scrub the instruments with soap and warm water.

• Rinse thoroughly with distilled or deionized water,Allow to air dry.

• Place the instruments, unwrapped, in the autoclave tray.

• Use fresh distilled or deionized water.

• Steam Autoclave at 136° C (plus or minus 2° C) for 20 minutes.

• Recommended File Disposal: Place used files in a Biohazard Sharps container.

Evaluate root anatomy as well as the existence, extent and position of Canal curvatures.

General Strategic Principles

Access Preparation

Don’t Force Files

Don’t Overuse Files

Avoiding Breakage Takes Practice

Don’t Try to Bypass Ledges

Avoid Cutting With the Entire Length of File

Don’t Start and Stop

Length Control is Critical

Difficult Canal Anatomy

Nickel titanium rotary instruments are NOT indicated –

S-shaped canals

Canals that join within a single root

Severe dilacerations

Ledge is present

Very large canals where they fail to contact the canal walls.

Straight line access to the canal is essential and the instruments should be used passively.

Page 94: Rotary in endodontic

CONCLUSION

Page 95: Rotary in endodontic

95

Know your instrument“The tools are only as good as the man who wields them”

Follow the Guidelines for use

Selection based on– Case requirement– Ease of use– Safety– Efficiency / Time

Nickel-titanium rotary instruments have become an important adjunct in endodontic therapy.

Despite the existence of one ever present risk factor—dental anatomy—shaping outcomes with these

instruments are mostly predictable.

Take Home Message

Need taking into consideration the following parametersThe choice of a rotary system has to be based on a case-to-case

The only clinical parameter one has to keep in mind is to ensure that the chosen system is able to enlarge the

canal to size #50 at a level 3 mm short of the working length
