SONICflex™ retro

  • Diamond-coated tips for axially-aligned retrograde root canal preparation according to Dr. Ilgenstein
  • Retrograde root canal sealing
  • Small access
  • Axially-aligned preparation
  • Minimal cavities

Tips for minimally invasive, axial retrograde preparation, filling of the root canal and preparation of undercuts

The problem

The retrograde root canal treatment: limited space, restricted lateral access. Bone substance has to be protected and the stability of the tooth preserved. Rotating instruments sometimes produce the opposite effect: large bone windows, more difficult axial preparation of the canal.

The solution

The KaVo SONICflex retro system (0.571.0381) permits gentle and efficient sound-based retrograde root canal treatment with contra-angle diamond-coated tips:

  • Isthmus (left and right).
  • Cylinder (left and right).
  • T-shape (left and right).
  • Special tip for displaced apices.
  • Filling instruments (left and right).

Features

  • Small, elegantly designed tips, for axially-aligned, retrograde root canal preparation in the front and side teeth areas, with minimum bone defects
  • Diamond-coated tips and the sonoabrasive technique enable, for the first time, genuine retrograde cavity preparation
  • SONICflex retro pointer makes it easy to locate main, side and connecting canals
  • Cylindrical SONICflex retro tips for root canal preparation
  • T-shaped SONICflex retro tips for preparation of undercuts
  • Special tip for axially-aligned opening and preparation of strongly orally-inclined apices
  • Preparation to a penetration depth of 5 mm feasible
  • Filling instruments of the same size for condensing the retrograde root filling material
  • SONICflex retro tips feature optimised guidance of the coolant.
  • Sterile cooling fluid can be supplied via an adapter to the SONICflex
