Endodoncia

February 1, 2022 - Dentsply Sirona introduces ProTaper Ultimate, the latest generation of ProTaper files. This system is specifically designed for clinicians who frequently perform endodontic procedures and wish to expand the range of anatomical treatment they provide their patients. As a complete solution, the ProTaper Ultimate Solution comes with files, absorbent points and Conform Fit gutta-percha master cones. It features a Slider-Shaper-Finishers sequence to cover a full range of anatomical situations, a 25% better cleaning efficacy and obturation with ideal fit 100% of the time.

Mississauge, ON (Feb 1, 2022) With advances in endodontic treatment, dentists enable patients to keep their natural teeth for many years—ideally for a lifetime. This makes it even more important to have a complete set of products that can help ensure treatment success from root canal treatment to restoration. Since its first introduction 20 years ago, each generation of ProTaper from Dentsply Sirona has stood for a trusted, reliable and predictable preparation method that enables excellent clinical outcomes for patients worldwide.

With ProTaper Ultimate, Dentsply Sirona is now introducing a technologically driven fourth generation system. The treatment concept is based on pillars: shaping, 3D cleaning, and filling root canal systems. The standard sequence of the shaping pillar includes three file types; namely, slider, shaper and finishers. These feature specific files are designed to safely prepare a full range of endodontic anatomy. Novel auxiliary files are available for larger and straighter canals and all files are available to prepare canals mechanically and/or manually.

The ProTaper Ultimate Solution offers extensive options: The cleaning pillar is focused on eliminating pulp, bacteria, debris, and breaking down products, when present. A reagent of the clinician’s choice can be exchanged into both the instrumentable and uninstrumentable portion of the root canal space, utilizing the novel SmartLite Pro EndoActivator, which will be launched in the coming months. The SmartLite Pro platform offers three attachments; namely, the SmartLite Pro curing light, the transilluminator, and the EndoActivator. Finally, the obturation pillar will enable dentists to successfully fill the root canal system thanks to predictable shaping and cleaning. The ProTaper Ultimate Solution also includes dedicated gutta-percha master cones based on the unique Conform Fit concept and technology.

“From its inception so many years ago, our thinking has always been continuous improvement,” says Dr. Clifford Ruddle, endodontist one of the inventors of ProTaper Ultimate, from Santa Barbara, USA. “ProTaper Ultimate has been designed to provide confidence and predictability for the clinician and patient alike. This comprehensive file system balances safety and efficiency when preparing canals that range from easy and straightforward, to large and open, or that exhibit challenging curvatures and recurvatures.”

ProTaper Ultimate and Conform Fit master cones will be available starting February 2022 in Canada.
