Description:
The Next Generation of the Endo Gold Standard
ProTaper NEXT® is the newest innovation to the ProTaper® UNIVERSAL system, which has been the gold standard in endodontics for many years.
It is an efficient solution for endo practitioners seeking a versatile, flexible system that will handle the vast majority of root canal treatments, even the most complex cases.
The key evolutions of ProTaper NEXT are the swaggering movement of the file and the utilisation of our proprietary strengthened NiTi, M-Wire® technology.
Advantages:
- Covers more difficult clinical cases: The unique swaggering movement and the greater flexibility of the ProTaper NEXT files make it possible to shape more severely curved narrow canals.
- Brings improved safety: The risk of file breakage is significantly decreased and respect of the original root canal anatomy is greatly improved.
- Shortens the shaping time: Requiring just two files for most cases, the shorter clinical sequence means that less time is spent changing instruments. The high cutting efficiency also reduces the shaping time.
- Swaggering Effect: ProTaper NEXT's innovative off-centred rectangular cross section gives the file a snakelike "swaggering" movement as it moves through the rootcanal. The rotation of the off-centred cross section generates enlarged space for debris hauling. Optimisation of canal tracking is also achieved due to the "swaggering" effect.
- M-WiRE: The M-WIRE NiTi material improves file flexibility, while still retaining cutting efficiency. This is achieved through an advanced DENTSPLY proprietary thermal treatment process. M-WIRE NiTi also provides greater resistance to cyclic fatigue, the leading cause of file separation.
