Endodontic Equipment (8)

Endodontic Equipment from Orthdent

Root canal treatment is a sequence of small, controlled movements, and the equipment is what makes those movements repeatable. Two pieces matter most: the motor that drives the file, and the system that fills the canal once it is shaped.

• Endo motors. A dedicated endo motor gives you controlled, adjustable torque and speed, which is what keeps a rotary file turning at the rate the system was designed for. Higher-end units add auto-reverse and auto-stop when torque limits are reached.
• Gear ratio and contra-angle. Endo motors are usually supplied with a reduction contra-angle (for example 16:1) that converts the motor's rotation into the low speed and higher torque the file needs.
• Cordless or corded. Cordless motors remove the cable and are easier to move between rooms, but battery condition becomes part of your routine.
• Programs and presets. Multi-program motors let you store settings per file system instead of dialling them in for every case.
• Obturation. A heated fill system - a cordless pen or a gun - softens and delivers the filling material into the shaped canal, with the plugger compacting it.
