Since the introduction of Nickel-Titanium alloy as the material of choice for the
manufacturing of endodontic rotary instruments, the success rate of the root canal therapies …

The fracture of endodontic instruments is a procedural problem creating a major obstacle to
normally routine therapy. With the advent of rotary nickel-titanium (NiTi) instruments this …

Over the years, NiTi alloys have become indispensable materials in endodontic treatment.
With technological advancements in metallurgy, manufacturers have attempted to produce …

It was the aim of this study to investigate the incidence of file breakage and distortion when
the ProTaper, K3 Endo, and ProFile systems were used to instrument canals in the severely …

Aim To prospectively determine the incidence of nickel–titanium rotary instrument fracture in
an endodontic clinical practice setting. Methodology Eleven second year endodontic …

ABSTRACT Background and Overview With the increased use of nickel-titanium (NiTi) rotary
instruments for root canal preparation in endodontics, instrument fracture has become more …

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to assess the influence of cyclic deformation up to
one half and three quarters of the fatigue life of NiTi rotary endodontic instruments on their …

Torsional stresses are one of the most frequent causes of intracanal separation of nickel–
titanium endodontic instruments, which represents a great concern of endodontists. For this …

With the advent of rotary nickel titanium (NiTi) instruments, preparation of curved canals
have become easy but chances of instrument separation have increased. Such an …

Root canal preparation using instruments with increased flexibility, such as nickel-titanium
(NiTi) rotary instruments, often results in faster, more consistent preparations with fewer …
