background and aims. the manufacturing process of rotary ni-ti file can influence its resistance to fracture. the rotary profile (dentsply-maillefer, baillagues, switzerland) is manufactured by grinding mechanism whereas twisted file (sybron endo, usa) is manufactured with a twisting method. the purpose of this study was to comparatively evaluate the effect of manufacturing process on distortio...

i ntroduction: apical debris extrusion (de) subsequent to root canal instrumentation, is one of the most important causes of endodontic flare-ups. the aim of this study was to compare the amount of de after root canal instrumentation using nickel-titanium (niti) hand files with step-back manual technique or installed on reciprocating handpiece. methods and materials: this study was conducted on...

introduction: the aim of this study was to compare several metallurgic properties of neoniti instrument with four other commonly used endodontic rotary files. methods and materials: neoniti a1 (25/0.08), race (25/0.06), mtwo (25/0.06), twisted file (25/0.06) and protaper next x2 (25/0.06) were examined by differential scanning calorimetry (dsc) before and after heat treatment at 500 ° c. x-ray ...

Nickel-titanium (Ni-Ti) instruments are widely used in adult endodontics as an efficient technique, but are rarely used for endodontic treatment for primary molars. To explore the feasibility of using Ni-Ti rotary instruments for root canal preparation in primary molars, 51 primary molars with intact root apex in 22 children, who ranged in age from 3.2 years to 7.7 years, were treated. A modifi...

OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to compare the dimensional standard of several nickel-titanium (Ni-Ti) rotary files and verify the size conformity. MATERIALS AND METHODS ProFile (Dentsply Maillefer), RaCe (FKG Dentaire), and TF file (SybronEndo) #25 with a 0.04 and 0.06 taper were investigated, with 10 in each group for a total of 60 files. Digital images of Ni-Ti files were captured und...

background: nickel-titanium (ni-ti) rotary instrument files are important devices in endodontics in root canal preparation. ni-ti file breakage is a critical and problematic issue and irrigation techniques were applied to decrease risk of file failure root. the aim of the present study was to compare the temperature gradient change of different irrigation solutions with ni-ti rotary instrument ...

Yared G. Canal preparation using only one Ni-Ti rotary instrument: preliminary observations. International Endodontic Journal. Aim To describe a novel canal preparation technique using only one Ni-Ti rotary instrument. Summary In this novel technique, the canal is negotiated to the working length with a size 08 hand file. Then, the canal preparation is completed with an F2 ProTaper instrument u...
