define initial apical file
the first file that binds the minor apical constriction at working length
define working length
how long the root canal system is from an incisal/occlusal reference point to the minor apical constriction
define straight line access
straight until the first curvature or the apical third
define master apical file
2-3 sizes bigger than the IAF; it goes to WL passively and stops at WL
the minor apical foramen is considered the ___
“apical stop”
what is the rotary instrumentation system we use?
brassler bio race
when using rotary instrumentation, what are the steps, and what rotary files do you use at each step?
- BR-0: orifice opener file - coronal prep
- determine WL
- create glide path
- BR-1 to WL
- BR-2 preps apical 1/3
- BR-3 blends middle and apical 1/3
* you can use BR-4 and BR-5 if the canal is larger

what is the diameter and taper for BR-2?
- diameter: #25
- taper: .04
what is the diameter and taper for BR-3?
- diameter: #25
- taper: .06
what is the diameter and taper for BR-4?
- diameter: #35
- taper: .04
what is the diameter and taper for BR-5?
- diameter: #40
- taper: .04
