What is wave One GOLD?
The WAVEONE GOLD system is a single-file and single-use technique. Through the convergence of an advanced design, Gold-wire technology, and a unique reciprocating movement, preparing canals is now safer, easier and faster.
What is taper of wave one gold?
The WaveOne Gold single-file reciprocating system is available in four different file tip sizes in lengths of 21 mm, 25 mm, and 31 mm: WaveOne Gold small file (yellow ring) (Figure 2) — tip of the file is size ISO 20, and the first 3 mm of the file (D1- D3) has a continuous taper of 7%.
How do I use Reciproc?
Preparation Step by Step
- Place irrigant in the access cavity of the root canal.
- Select the appropriate RECIPROC® instrument and secure it in the handpiece.
- Check that the RECIPROC® motor setting has been selected.
- Introduce the RECIPROC® instrument into the canal.
- Move the file in a slow in-and-out pecking motion.
How do you use ProTaper in gold?
Use the S1, with a brushing action, until working length is reached. Use the S2, with a brushing action, until working length is reached. Reconfirm working length, irrigate, recapitulate and re-irrigate, especially in more curved canals.
How accurate is apex locator?
Although in the ranges 0.1 and ±0.25 mm the ApexPointer had the highest accuracy, the rank analysis showed that 39% of the measurements were beyond the foramen (Figs 4 and 6). There were no significant differences between the various types of teeth and root canals.
Can apex locator detect perforation?
Apex locators can be used to determine if the perforation communicates with the periodontal membrane, This is based on Sunada’s2 findings that the electrical resistance between the mucous membrane and the periodontium can be considered to have a constant relationship.
Do you need sealer with Guttacore?
The armamentarium for GuttaCore obturation is comprised of a pre-selected size verifier and CBO, and a heating oven (Figure 4). Additionally, sealer is essential, is a critical lubri- cant, and should be compatible with any warm gutta percha technique.
What is the difference between ProTaper next and ProTaper gold?
It also has a noncutting tip design, allowing the instrument to follow the original shape of the root canal. The ProTaper Universal has the same features. One important difference between these systems is that the ProTaper Gold has been metallurgically enhanced through heat-treatment technology.
How do you calibrate an apex locator?
Make sure that you are getting your initial reading by taking your file a little long to read the PDL, then back up your file short of working length, then re-advance it to your zero zero. This will “calibrate” your apex locator and will give you a more accurate reading.
Does apex locator hurt?
Conclusions: There is no difference in postoperative pain between working length measurement methods by using an electronic apex locator or digital radiography.
