Step 1: DIAGNOSIS

Endo Ice




- Refrigerant spray used to diagnose pulpal health.




- Applied with a cotton pellet.




- Sold in 6oz can.

Step 2: Isolation

Dental Dams- isolate the tooth to provide a clean working environment and prevent tools and debris from falling into patient's mouth. Keeps the working area dry.




Brand name is Hygenic




Flexi dam:




- framed or unframed; latex free; powder free


- unframed comes in 6"x6"




Dental dam:




- latex or non-latex; powder or powder free


- comes in 5"x5" and 6"x6"




Elasti-dam:




- powder free


- latex


- 5x5" or 6x6"




Fiesta:




- latex


- color coded and fruit scented


- 5x5" or 6x6"

Step 2a: Isolation with clamps or wedjets

Wedjets:




- latex or non-latex




Clamps:




- further isolate the tooth and prevent dental dam from slipping


- winged or wingless


- glossy or matte




Fiesta: color coded for organization; matte; winged or wingless

Step 3: Access

Use rotary bur to access the pulpal chamber and then use an orifice opener to flare the coronal portion of the tooth.

Step 4: Locate apex/ apical constriction

Find the working length of the canal using a combination of hand files, radiographs and an apex locator.




A size 8 or 10 Hyflex x-file hand file is generally used to create a glide path to the apex.




Canal Pro apex locator:




- dual impedance technology allows for real time communication between procedure and LCD color display


- 94% accuracy


- audio and visual feedback


- working length determined using this device should be checked with radiograph

Step 5: Canal Preparation

Purpose: remove infected tissue, irrigate the canal, shape the canal.




Hyflex NT:




- best suited for calcified canals, straight canals, retreatments and removal of gutta percha


- .04 taper, 15-60


- .06 taper, 20-40

Canal Preparation continued

HyFlex EDM files


- produced using Electric discharge machining. This uses spark erosion to harden the surface of the file resulting in superior fracture resistance and cutting efficiency.


- Pre-sterilized


- Multi-use


- dual taper sizes and variable cross section design (triangle at the top, trapezoidal in middle, and rectangular at tip)


- 25mm length only


- available individually or as a shaping/finishing set



Canal Preparation continued

HyFlex CM rotary file


- Controlled memory makes extremely flexible allowing to efficiently navigate the anatomy of the canal wall while reducing risk of separation.


- Multi-use: autoclaving will bring files back to original shape and strengthen files.


- .4/.6 tapers


- available individual or as a shaping set

Step 6: Irrigation

Mechanical debridement alone cannot sufficiently clean and disinfect the root canal system, therefore chemical debridement is required in conjunction.




Canal Pro Extra NaOCl (Sodium hypochlorite)


- powerful wetting agent


- available in 3% or 6%




Canal Pro EDTA


- Removes spear layer and opens tubules offering better adhesion to the sealer




Canal Pro CHX


- Chlorhexidine is used as a final step for long lasting disinfection.




1) Canal Pro NaOCl- Sodium hypo-chloride (bleach) is used to flush the canal and disinfect - flush with sterile water and blot with paper points in between each step




2) Canal Pro EDTA 17% is used next to remove the smear layer and open up the tubules to allow for better adhesion of the sealer and obturator materials




3) Canal Pro CHX 2%- chlorhexidine is used as a final step to thoroughly disinfect canal with long lasting results




*All 3 irrigation liquids can be used with the Canal Pro color-coded syringes and syringe station




Promo- Endo bulk buyer's program- if you buy $500 worth of endo products, including 4 bottles EDTA, bleach or CHX, you get a free syringe station




Accessories:


Canal Pro Syringe Station


Canal Pro Color Syringes

Step 7: Drying

Hygenic brand paper points and greater taper paper points are used to thoroughly dry the canal to ensure adhesion of sealer and gutta percha.




Hygenic Greater Taper Paper points:




- Tightly rolled, sterile and highly absorbent paper points come in sizes .04/.06 taper and up to 28 mm length




ROEKO SurgiTip- endo


- Effective aspiration and good canal accessibility that is specifically designed for multi directional flexibility.

Step 8: Medicamentaton

If there is still some infection in the canal that needs to heal, medication will need to be applied before the root canal can be completed.




Hygenic Calcium Hydroxide Plus Points ensure that medicine is applied to working length.




- easy to use


- no mess- time efficient


- no mixing required

Step 9: Sealer


Coltosol F


- A self curing temporary sealer.


- 2 hour cure time


- Radiopaque




DualTemp


- dual curing temporary sealer sets immediately


- radiopaque


- comes in a 5ml syringe


- contains zinc-oxide which helps with healing



Step 10: Obturation

ROEKOSeal Automix


- Easy and ready to use 5ml silicone sealer.


- Excellent flowability to fill root canal and alteral canals


- Working time: up to 30 min


- Setting time: 45-50min




GuttaFlow 2


- First 2-in-1 cold flowable


- no shrinkage with a .2% expansion


- biocompatible


- radiopaque


- Gutta Percha + polydimethoselxaine


- Working time: 10-15 min


- Curing time: 25-30min

Obturation continued

Hygenic EDM Gutta Percha points


- used along side HyFlex EDM Files


- Available in assorted or individual sizes




Hygenic Gutta Percha Greater Taper


- ideal for obturating root canals that have been prepared with HyFlex CM or NT files


- Available in .04/.06 taper and in sorted or individual sizes

Step 11: Restoration
