- 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
