Root Canal Cleaning

Shake up your idea of clean

Market research has shown, that number one of clinicians concern when performing root canal treatment is cleaning the canal.1

The long-term success of an endodontic procedure depends on a clean canal.2 And yet 35% or more of canal surfaces are left untouched after instrumentation. 

And a passive bleach soak takes up to 40 minutes to effectively eliminate bacteria.3

But the median irrigation time is 2.5 minutes,4 leaving bacteria that can compsomise the treatment.5
