SafeSiders HF
Upgrade your endodontic armamentarium with this safe and efficient rotary root canal instrument
The goal for an endodontic instrument is to shape the canal as quickly and efficiently as possible while being resistant to breakage. Yet the development of tools and techniques aimed at improving this feat has resulted in a double-edged sword—instruments that can efficiently cut and shape the dentin wall, but that also cut into clinicians’ peace of mind when the inevitable file separation occurs.
In response to this need, EDS has introduced the SafeSiders HF line of endodontic instruments that provide quick and safe instrumentation. The patented rotary endodontic instrumentation system is designed with a relieved Helical Flat that rotates in the opposite direction of the cutting flutes. This design, along with a proprietary NiTi treatment process, provides clinicians with an instrument that is highly resistant to breakage.
Increased Confidence
“If you have confidence in your instrumentation process, then you can expand your case selection while reducing chairside anxiety," said Catherine Troncillito, Marketing Manager for EDS. “Clinicians are raving about the confidence they are gaining due to the increased safety of the instrument from not separating.”
SafeSiders HF instrumentation offers flexibility and follows the anatomy of the canal—reducing the risk of ledging, transportation, and perforation, while minimizing the loss of dentin. Disengaging threads along the length of the instrument decrease torsional stress for effective apical negotiation, without the instrument being drawn in.
Rugged Time Saver
“Extensive breakage studies on this instrumentation system have shown that it outlasts other endodontic instruments in curved canals. Apical time studies, corroborated with clinicians who are using the product, have shown a drastic reduction in instrumentation time,” said Troncillito.
This time-saving rotary instrument shaping system is reusable up to 3 times, providing savings compared to single-use systems. The instruments can be used with current endo motors or, for optimal use and safety, with EDS’s ENDO-CSV cordless endodontic handpiece, which features bright built-in LED illumination.
