Most common
K files
Flexo file
Single helix teardrop cross-sectional shape
H files
The cylindrical central part of the file, the circumference of which is outlined and bordered by the depth of the flutes
Core
The groove in the working surface of an instrument used to collect debris (soft tissue and dentine chips removed from the canal walls). Its depth, width, and surface aspect can vary according to the particular instrument
Flute
The area with the greatest diameter that follows the groove
Cutting or leading edge or blade:
The distance between a point on the leading edge and the corresponding point on the adjacent leading edge along the working surface. The smaller the tighter the spirals and the greater the helix angle. Most files have a variable pitch that changes along the active surface
Pitch:
formed by the cutting edge (the blade) and the long axis of the file. It helps augur debris from the flutes. Can be fixed or can change along the active portion; in the latter case, we speak of a ‘variable pitch’
Helix angle:
Manual techniques
Step back
Step Down
Crown-down
This techniques relies on stepwise reduction of WL for larger files, typically in 0.5 to 1 mm steps, resulting in flared shapes with 0.05 and 0.10 mm tapering, respectively
Introduced by Clem and Weine in 1960
Step back
In what consiste the step back T?
- acces the chamber, flood the chamber with irrigant
- establish the workin length, with file 10
- file 15
- remove instrument n irrigate
- gentle watch-winding motion
Who is called the final file that goes to the full working length
In step back T
MAF
How to break up apical debris to be easily washed away with the irrigant
Recapitulate the canal with the previous smaller size file
The gates Glidden is useful for…
Enlarging the canal to obtain cleaner canal
Step back avantages
More flaring of the canal at the coronal part with proper apical stop
Step back
Disadvantages
- Difficult to irrigate apical region.
- Alteration of the WL after canal flaring.
- More chances of pushing debris periapically.
- Time consuming.
- Increased chances of iatrogenic errors for example ledge formation in curved canals.
- Difficult to penetrate instruments in the canal.
- More chances of instrument fracture.
