Dot Flex Path Files Memory Definition Files offer many advantages compared to manual glide path solutions. With 2% taper these files provide flexibility and high strength against cyclic fatigue. The gradual increase (013; 016; 019) in the tip diameters facilitates the progression of the files eliminating the need for strong axial pressure. These files substantially reduce the time spent for glide path compared to manual stainless steel files.
Denext Dot-flex path Files utilize a proprietary heat treatment which gives it a very unique flexibility, flutes open up when the stress level is reached, yet the file does not present shape memory.
These files offer many advantages over manual stainless steel files:
Less canal transportation than with manual K-files
Suitable for curved canals
More flexible than manual files
Faster instrumentation time than with manual files
Original canal anatomy is better preserved
Composition of alloy: Ni – 44% , Ti – 56%
ADVANTAGES:
Triangular Cross Section:
Sharp Cutting Edges
Non-Cutting Tip: To minimise apical transportation
Enhances cutting efficiency
Controlled memory files
350% more resistance to cyclic fatigue
Extreme Flexibility:
To negotiate any canal safely
Preservation of Canal Anotomy
No apical transportation when the working length is long
No formation of ledges when the working length is short
