11 V- Intraradicular instruments These are instruments used for preparation of root canal (cleaning and shaping) Classification according to use A. Exploring instruments B. Extirpating instruments C. Enlarging instruments 11

12 A. Exploring instruments: B. Extirpating instruments Extirpation : is the removal of vital inflamed pulp. barbed broach 12

13 C. Enlarging instruments: Classification according to: Material of construction:stainless Steel, Nickel Titanium, Carbon Steel, Diamond. Power source:hand driven, engine driven (rotary or vibratory) Technique of manufacture: Counter clockwise twisting, machine grinding ISO Classification Group I: I: Hand operated e.g. broaches, Files, Reamer Group II: II: Engine driven same as group I (handle is replaced by latch type). Group III: III: Engine driven (formed of one piece of metal e.g. gates glidden, glidden, pesso drills, NiTi rotary instruments). instruments). Group IV: IV: Root canal points: points: GuttaGutta-percha., spreaders, paper points. 13

17 Instrument standardization Iso standardization 1. Formula for the degree of diameter and tapering: D16-D = = Length of the working part 16 mm 0.02 mm diameter/ mm length 17

18 2. Instrument numbering system: OR No. of instrument = D0 100 No. of Ins. = Do x D0 = = 0.35 mm Formula for the graduated incremental increase in the size from one instrument to another #6#6-10: 0.02 mm #10#10-60: 0.05 mm #60#60-140: 0.1mm 18

19 4. Standrdization of tip angle 5. Standardization of color coding 19

20 Recent instrument standardization Profile series 29.17% In ISO % % Golden medium: Intermediate sizes: 12,17,22,27. 20

21 What are the components of a file? The taper is usually expressed as the amount the file diameter increases each millimeter along its working surface from the tip toward the file handle 21

22 What are the components of a file? The flute of the file is the groove in the working surface used to collect soft tissue and dentine chips removed from the wall of the canal What are the components of a file? The land is a surface that projects axially from the central axis as far as the cutting edge, between flutes. 22

23 What are the components of a file? The Cutting edge (Blade) the surface of the greatest diameter that follows the groove What are the components of a file? The helix angle is the angle that the cutting edge makes with the long axis of the file. Less steep Helical angle Steeper Helical angle 23

24 What is the core of a file? The core is the cylindrical center part of the file having its circumference outlined and bordered by the depth of the flutes What is the rake angle? The rake angle is the angle formed by the leading edge and the radius of the file If the file is sectioned perpendicular to its long axis 24

25 The leading edge of the blade is ahead of the perpendicular. The leading edge of the blade is behind the perpendicular, the angle is by definition, positive. Rake angle Negative rake angle Cut by compression K file, K flex, K Reamer Positive rake angle Cut by creating a chip H file, dental burs Most NiTi 25
