Review - Rotary File Systems Used in Endodontics
Hacer Gunduz
Abstract: Rotary file systems used during root canal treatment in endodontics have been used for a long time. With the development of technology and especially with the discovery of nickel - titanium alloys, file systems have developed much faster with the beginning of their use in endodontics. Thanks to the superelasticity and shape memory feature of the file systems, much better motion and control is provided in the canal and the treatment efficiency is increased. In addition, the use of increasingly complex combinations in the rotational motion also increases the treatment efficiency and tool resistance against rotational fatigue. In this review, the current rotary instrument systems that endodontists will choose in root canal treatment are discussed.
