instrument apically, increased amounts of debris are driven apically.
![Page 19: Test123](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042817/55a6adc91a28ab3a418b45cd/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
The same rotating fluted design that draws the instrument beyond the apex will also drive the debris
in front of the tip beyond the confines of the root.
![Page 20: Test123](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042817/55a6adc91a28ab3a418b45cd/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
8. Reduces resistance to vertical fractures.
![Page 21: Test123](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042817/55a6adc91a28ab3a418b45cd/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
When tooth structure is excessively removed in the mesio-distal plane in teeth where the pulp is very thin in that plane, the roots become weaker.
![Page 22: Test123](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042817/55a6adc91a28ab3a418b45cd/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
8. Reduces resistance to vertical fractures.9. Gives the canal a shape that increases the
masticatory stresses.
![Page 23: Test123](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042817/55a6adc91a28ab3a418b45cd/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Again, a result of excessive removal of tooth structure in the thinner mesio-distal plane.
![Page 24: Test123](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042817/55a6adc91a28ab3a418b45cd/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
8. Reduces resistance to vertical fractures.9. Gives the canal a shape that increases the

8. Reduces resistance to vertical fractures.9. Gives the canal a shape that increases the
masticatory stresses.10. Only for single usage.11. Very expensive.
![Page 26: Test123](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042817/55a6adc91a28ab3a418b45cd/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
8. Reduces resistance to vertical fractures.9. Gives the canal a shape that increases the
masticatory stresses.10. Only for single usage.11. Very expensive.12. Increases procedural stress.
![Page 27: Test123](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042817/55a6adc91a28ab3a418b45cd/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
When the dentist must be constantly conscious of the impact of the procedures on the integrity of the instrument rather than the integrity of the
root, it underlines the fact that he/she is using a poorly conceived product.
![Page 28: Test123](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042817/55a6adc91a28ab3a418b45cd/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
8. Reduces resistance to vertical fractures.9. Gives the canal a shape that increases the
masticatory stresses.10. Only for single usage.11. Very expensive.12. Increases procedural stress.13. Still dependent upon the K-file for the glide
path.
![Page 29: Test123](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042817/55a6adc91a28ab3a418b45cd/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
K-files are used manually for the creation of the glide path producing hand fatigue and tend to
impact debris apically in curved canals resulting in loss of length before rotary NiTi is employed.
![Page 30: Test123](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042817/55a6adc91a28ab3a418b45cd/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
And that brings us to a far safer, more efficient, less expensive approach to endodontic instrumentation
that virtually eliminates hand fatigue and separation while preserving far more tooth
structure.
![Page 31: Test123](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042817/55a6adc91a28ab3a418b45cd/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Now let us consider 30º reciprocation of modified reamers oscillating at 3000-4000 cycles per
minute.
![Page 32: Test123](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042817/55a6adc91a28ab3a418b45cd/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
1. Use of modified reamers rather than K-files thatencounter less resistance making the shapingprocedure faster.
![Page 33: Test123](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042817/55a6adc91a28ab3a418b45cd/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
K-File
Relieved Reamer
![Page 34: Test123](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042817/55a6adc91a28ab3a418b45cd/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Relieved Vertically Fluted Instrument
K-File
We use these instruments rather than k-files.
Comparing relieved vertically fluted instruments to k-files we observe the following:
1. Fewer flutes on the 16 mm of working length of a relieved vertically flutedinstrument than on a k-fileapproximately 16 flutes versus 30.
![Page 35: Test123](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042817/55a6adc91a28ab3a418b45cd/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Consequences of fewer flutes:
1. There is less engagement along length.
2. Relieved vertically fluted instruments are more flexible than files because they are less work hardened and thinner in crosssection.
3. The flutes are more vertically oriented.K-File
Relieved Vertically Fluted Instrument
![Page 36: Test123](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042817/55a6adc91a28ab3a418b45cd/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Relieved Vertically Fluted Instrument
K- File
Consequences of less engagement:1. Less resistance along the shank as we
negotiate apically.
Consequences of greater flexibility:1. Able to negotiate curved canals with
less chance of distortion.
Consequences of more vertically orientedflutes:1. Able to cut dentin along canal length
when the motion of the instrument iseither horizontal rotation or reciprocation.
![Page 37: Test123](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042817/55a6adc91a28ab3a418b45cd/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Taken together, the consequences of greater flexibility, lessengagement and more efficient cutting along length produce
a superior tactile perception along length and at the tip of the instrument.
![Page 38: Test123](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042817/55a6adc91a28ab3a418b45cd/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
The consequences of superior tactile perception:1. Allows the safe incorporation of a cutting tip.
The consequences of a cutting tip:1. The ability to pierce pulpal tissue rather than
impact it apically.
2. The ability to distinguish between a tight canal and hitting a wall when used in awatchwinding motion or a reciprocatinghandpiece.
![Page 39: Test123](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042817/55a6adc91a28ab3a418b45cd/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
The incorporation of the reciprocatinghandpiece allows a 30º arc of motionoscillating at 3000-4000 cpm.
A 30º arc of motion represents 1/12 of a circle or 5 minutes on the face of aclock.
The motion is so limited it virtually eliminates the 2 major factors that cause rotary NiTi files to break and unwind,namely, torsional stress and cyclic fatigue.
![Page 40: Test123](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042817/55a6adc91a28ab3a418b45cd/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
1. Use of modified reamers rather than K-files thatencounter less resistance making the shapingprocedure faster.
2. No hand fatigue after the initial instrument goesto the apex.
![Page 41: Test123](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042817/55a6adc91a28ab3a418b45cd/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)

1. Use of modified reamers rather than K-files thatencounter less resistance making the shapingprocedure faster.
2. No hand fatigue after the initial instrument goesto the apex.
3. Virtually no chance of instrument separationduring the full shaping of the canal.
![Page 44: Test123](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042817/55a6adc91a28ab3a418b45cd/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
A 30º arc of motion virtually eliminates torsional stress and cyclic fatigue in turn eliminating
instrument separation and dentinal micro-cracks.
![Page 45: Test123](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042817/55a6adc91a28ab3a418b45cd/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
1. Use of reamers rather than K-files thatencounter less resistance making the shapingprocedure faster.
2. No hand fatigue after the initial instrumentgoes to the apex.
3. Virtually no chance of instrument separationduring the full shaping of the canal.
4. Far less tooth structure sacrificed in the mesio-distal plane.
![Page 46: Test123](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042817/55a6adc91a28ab3a418b45cd/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Rarely, if ever, do we exceed an 04 taper, thus preserving dentin in the mesio-distal plane while removing more tissue in the bucco-lingual plane.
Nor is straight-line access necessary.
![Page 47: Test123](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042817/55a6adc91a28ab3a418b45cd/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)

You have been presented with a detailed rationale for modified reamers over K-files, 30º reciprocation
oscillating at 3000-4000 cycles per minute rather than continuous or interrupted rotations and the
predominant use of stainless steel 02 tapered instruments rather than greater tapered NiTi that will
increase the quantity and quality of the remaining dentin while increasing the speed and safety of your
procedures.

The relieved reamers combined with the 30º reciprocating handpiece are commercially known as
the SafeSider Instruments and oscillate in the handpiece called the Endo-Express.
