This video talks about the basic instruments that are required for a glide path preparation, cleaning and shaping, irrigation and obturation of root canal procedures.
The purpose of endodontics is to prevent or heal lesions of endodontic origin. But to achieve this, the root canal system must be successfully obturated.
In order to be obturated, the root canal system has to be successfully cleaned and rotary shaped, to be properly cleaned and shaped,
a Glidepath has to be successfully prepared. Glide path being the starting point of endodontic treatment….this video begins with an overview of glidepath and the instruments to use for a glide path preparation.
Root Canal Instruments discussed in the video are
1) K Files
2) Reamers
3) C+ Files
4) D Finders
5) Sequence of instruments to use for a glide path preparation
6) Rotary Glide path files eg. Path Files, Progliders
7) Shaping Files
8) H Files
9) Rotary endodontic files for shaping
10) Side Vented Needles
11) Endoactivator
12) Lentulospiral
13) Spreaders
14) Pluggers
This is a basic list of instruments used for an effective root canal procedure.
