lead to failure of the therapy itself. The use of endodontic instruments with flexible alloys …

Aim To compare landed and nonlanded rotary file overinstrumentation on transportation of
the apical foramen in the curved canals of extracted teeth. Methodology Severely curved …

Aim To evaluate apical transportation and centring ability during root canal preparation in
mesial root canals of mandibular molars associated with ProTaper Gold (PTG), ProDesign S …

In recent years, an important innovation in the field of dentistry has been the introduction of
nickel-titanium alloy instruments. Superelasticity and shape memory are the main …

Background: Objective in root canal preparation is to develop a shape that tapers from
apical to coronal, maintaining the original canal shape. With advent of instruments …

The basics of root canal preparation are to enlarge the root canal for proper disinfection and
to prevent reinfection with the use of irrigation agents. It also facilitates the placement of root …

ABSTRACT A wide array of nickel–titanium (NiTi) instruments has been introduced for
shaping root canals. Many variables and physical properties inluence the clinical …
