Annotation to the Lesson №2,3 Topic: Endodontic Instruments, Its Application Annotation to the lesson №2,3 Topic: Endodontic instruments, its application. Methodic of preparing pulp access cavities in mandibular teeth. Endodontics is the branch of clinical dentistry associated with the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of the pathosis of the dental pulp and their sequelae. Aims and objectives of the endodontic therapy are: 1. Diagnosis of various pulpal diseases. 2. To identify various etiological factors for pulpal and periapical diseases. 3. Maintain vitality of the pulp. 4. Preserve and store the tooth with damaged and necrotic pulp. 5. Preserve and restore the teeth which have failed to the previous endodontic therapy, to allow the tooth to remain functional in the dental arch. 1. Endodontic instruments and their types. ISO-FDI (Federation Dentaire International) grouped root canal instruments according to their method of use: Group I : Hand use only, for example K and H-files, reamers, broaches, etc. Group II : Latch type Engine driven: Same design as group I but can be attached to hand piece. Group III : Drills or reamers Latch type Engine driven, for example Gates- Glidden, Peeso reamers. Group IV : Root Canal points like gutta-percha, silver point, paper point. Motions of Instrumentation – Also referred to as envelops of motion 1. Filing motion - push and pull action 2. Reaming motion - clockwise or right hand rotation 3. Turn and pull - combination of reaming and filing 4. Watch winding - back and forth oscillation of a file and left as the instrument is being pushed forward into the canal 5. Watch winding and pull - used with H-file 6. Balanced force instrumentation: - Most efficient to cut dentine - Positioning and preloading the instrument through a clockwise rotation and than shaping the canal with counter clockwise rotation 2. Standardization principles of instruments. Fig. 1. Diagrammatic representation of an endodontic instrument All manufacturers make their brand of instruments according to a standard or specification for root canal instruments as determined by standardization organizations. The numbering of the instruments is identical with the diameter of the instruments at their tip (D1) expressed in hundredths of a millimeter (Fig. 1). Thus, no. 40 instrument has a diameter at the tip (D1) of 40/100 mm, which is 0.4 mm. The standardized instruments are manufactured in numbers or sizes from 10–150. In the sizes 10–60 there is an instrument for each 5/100 mm increment at Dl, whereas from size 60 and above the increment is 10/100 mm. K-type instruments are available in a size 8 as well. The standardized instruments are made in lengths of 21, 25, and 31 (30) mm. However, the length of the part of the blade with cutting flutes is always the same, namely 16 mm. Also, the flare of the blade is always the same regardless of the size of the instrument. Thus, the diameter of the blade where the cutting flutes end (D2) is the diameter at the tip (D1) plus 0.32 mm. This means that the taper of the instruments is 0.02 mm per mm. The manufacturing tolerance is 0.02 mm. Accordingly, the diameter of two instruments with the same number may vary as much as 0.04 mm. The colors white, yellow, red, blue, green, and black are used on the handles of the instruments to indicate their size. Since originally instrument no. 15 was the smallest instrument, the standardized color coding begins at this size. Thus, no. 15 instruments are white, no. 20 yellow, no. 25 red, no. 30 blue, no. 35 green, and no. 40 are black. No. 45 instruments have white handles again, and the color coding is repeated. In addition, no. 10 instruments have purple-colored and no. 8 instruments have silver-colored (grey) handles (Fig. 2). All instruments for preparing canals come from three basic forms: K-reamer, K- file, and Hedstrom file. 3. K – files. Methods of use. It is square in cross section, manufactured from stainless steel wire, which is grounded into desired shape. (Fig. 3) Tighter twisting of the file spirals increases the number of flutes in file. Functions: - To clean inside walls of canal - To contour inner walls of canal Files are predominantly used Fig. 3. Diagrammatic representation of K – file. with filing or rasping action in which there is little or no rotation in the root canals. It is placed in root canal and pressure is exerted against the canal wall and instrument is withdrawn while maintaining the pressure. H-files (Hedstrom file). Methods of use Hedstrom files have flutes which resemble successively triangles set one on another (Fig.4). • Hedstrom files cut only when instrument is withdrawn because its edges face the handle of the instrument. When used in torquing motion, their edges can engage in the dentin of root canal wall and causing H-files Fig. 4. Diagrammatic representation of H – file. to fracture. Since they lack the flexibility and are fragile in nature, the H-files tend to fracture when used in torqueing action. 4. K – reamers. Twisted triangular cutting edge (similar to K-type file, but cutting edge is farther apart and has fewer twists per millimeter). Triangular cross sectioned files show superior cutting and increased flexibility than the file with square blank (Fig. 5). Used with twisting motion Handles—Color coded according to size Range of sizes—To accommodate width of canal; diameter increases with size Available in different lengths Fig. 5. Diagrammatic representation of K – reamer. Broach. Broaches are manufactured from round wires, smooth surface of which has been notched to form barbs (Fig. 6) They are specifically designed to remove the pulp. Broach does not cut the dentin but can effectively be used to remove cotton or paper points which might have lodged in the canal. !!!For single use only!!! Fig. 6. Diagrammatic picture of broach. Technique of Pulp Extirpation (Healey, 1984) Irrigate the canal with 5.2% solution of sodium hypochlorite ↓ Penetrate the barbed broach along the canal wall towards the apex ↓ As it reaches to the apical constriction, move it into the center of mass of pulp tissue ↓ Rotate the broach several times in a watch winding manner to entrap the pulp which is then withdrawn from the canal. Engine – driven instruments. Gates-Glidden Burs 1. Traditional engine driven instruments include Gates- Glidden drills which have flame shaped cutting point mounted on long thin shaft attached to a latch type shank (Fig.7). 2. Gates-Gliddens are available in a set from 1 to 6 with the diameters from 0.5 to 1.5 mm. 3. Due to their design Gates-Glidden drills are side cutting instruments with safety tips. 4. If its cutting tip jams against the canal wall, fracture should occur at the junction of shank and the shaft but not at the tip of the instrument. This makes the easy removal of fractured drill from the canal. Fig. 7. Gates – glidden burs. Peeso Reamers They are rotary instruments used mainly for post space preparations (Fig. 8). Disadvantages of using peeso reamers are: 1. They don’t follow the canal curvature and may cause perforation by cutting laterally. 2. They are stiff instruments. 3. They have to be used very carefully to avoid iatrogenic errors. Fig. 8. Peeso Reamers Access cavity preparation in mandibular incisors, premolars and molars. Preparation of the access cavity is opening through the coronal portion of tooth which allows localization, cleaning, shaping, disinfection and a three dimensional obturation of the root canal system. Objectives: 1. To gain the direct access to the apical foramen. 2. Pulp chamber debridement. 3. Conserve as much sound tooth structure as possible and as consistent with treatment objectives. Before going for access cavity preparation, a study of preoperative periapical radiograph should be done to know: i. Morphology of the tooth. ii. Anatomy of root canal system. iii. Number of canals. iv. Curvature of branching of the canal system. v. Position of apical foramen. vi. Calcification, resorption present if any.

  • Endodontics د.شذى Lec.4
    Endodontics د.شذى Lec.4 Endodontic Instruments: There are many instruments used in the different phases of endodontic treatment and they are as follows: General Instruments 1) Endodontic explorer: A double end instrument, one end is straight used to locate the root canal orifices after the removal of the pulp chamber, and the other end is L-shaped which aids in detecting the unremoved parts of the tooth as the roof of pulp chamber. 2) Plastic instruments: It has two ends; the first is used to carry temporary filling material. The opposite end is used as a plugger to condense cement and base materials in the root canal. 3) Endodontic excavator: It is larger than a spoon excavator, used to allow excavation of the contents of the pulp chamber. It is also used in curettage of periapical lesions in surgical endodontics (apicectomy). 4) Endodontic locking pliers (tweezer): It has a lock that allows materials to be held without continuous finger pressure; also it has a groove which facilitates holding gutta percha and absorbing points. 1 5) Endodontic ruler: It is a metal ruler made of 0.5mm divisions. It is a convenient instrument to measure reamers, files and gutta percha. 6) Endodontic syringe: It is used to carry irrigating solution into the root canal. The tip of the instrument is flat to prevent penetration of the needle to the small canals; also it has a groove in its tip to permit the irrigation which might be under pressure to flow coronally rather than forcing it to the apical foramen causing post-operative pain.

  • E4 Metal Shop
    E4 METAL SHOP CNC PLASMA CAM FAQ… What is Plasma Cutting? Plasma cutting is a process of cutting metal that uses a pressurized gas, in our shop we used compressed air, that spins around an electrode in the torch. That air is then squeezed through a small opening on the torch tip. When an arc is established between the charged electrode and the conductive workpiece the gas become ionized and becomes plasma. Plasma is the fourth state of matter, an example of plasma is lighting or electric sparks. This plasma blasts away the conductive material being cut. This process is a very quick and efficient way of cutting down material and leaves little slag to clean up on the workpiece (Figure 1 & 2). Fig 1. Plasma cut numbers (½” stainless steel) Fig 2. Image of slag on the back of the cut steel. What is CNC Plasma Cutting? CNC plasma cutting is the same process of plasma cutting described above. However, instead of hand operating the torch, the torch is mounted to a gantry with motors that move according to your file on the computer. The settings for cutting different materials and thicknesses are programs that run while the plasma cutter is cutting your file. What type of metal can be Plasma Cut? Any conductive metal can be cut using the plasma cutter. The amount of cleanup needed after a cut is made depends on the thickness and type of metal. Softer metal will require more cleanup than harder metals because of how they react to the heat. Thick metals (1/2”) will have a large bevel and the edges will need more grinding (Figure 3 & 4).

  • Instruments Used in Endodontics
    Insturments Used in Endodontics The technical demands and level of precision required for sccessful performance of Endodontic procedures is achieved by careful manipula- tion of instruments and by strict adherence to biological and mechanical principles. Although the armamentarium of endodontics has grown in complexity over the past 30 years, yet, the basic instruments used today are not much different from those used at the turn of the century. Classification of endodontic instruments Different classifications for endodontic instruments have been proposed, however, the easiest would be to classify the instruments according to their sequence of usage during performing root canal procedure. I- Diagnostic instruments II- Extirpating instruments III- Enlarging instruments IV- Obturating instruments V- Miscellaneous I- Diagnostic instruments In addition to basic examination instruments (mirror, explorer and twizer) a number of specialized devices are necessary for evaluating the status of the teeth and the surrounding tissues. (1) Visual aids Recently, magnifying elements have been incorporated in the endodontic practice to enhance vision in the operative site. These could be as simple as magnifying loops being attached to ordinary eye glasses giving a mag- nification of 2.5X. Surgical microscopes have recently been adopted in the dental operatories. They offer a wide range of magnification from 2.5-20X together with fiber optic illumination. Operator can work through the eyepiece or a monitor. (2) Vitality testing Clinical assessment of pulp vitality is considered an important aspect in reaching proper diagnosis. This can be achieved by stimulating the neural element or by measuring the vascular conductance. Neural Tests: This is the most popular method for measuring the pulp vitality through thermal or electrical stimulation of the peripheral nerve endings.

  • Flowpath Tool-Pathing Tutorial
    Avery Digital Fabrication Laboratory FlowPATH Tool-pathing Tutorial OVERVIEW This tutorial outlines the process of preparing a 2D digital fi le for tool-pathing with FlowPATH for use with the school’s abrasive water-jet cutter. The water-jet is only capable of 2D cutting operations, and has extremely limited control of the depth of the cut so work should be designed with 2D lines and with the intention that the lines will be cut completely through the material – not etched. Depending on the hardness of the material it is possible to etch or score a cut instead of cutting all the way through, but this should only be done with ductile materials as it will cause shattering or breaking in more brittle materials. 2D GEOMETRY The FlowPATH software will only accept 2D geometry, and it works best with lines and arcs, splines may cause some problems. The lines can be made in any 2D application capable of exporting DXF fi les; possible applica- tions are Maya, 3dMax, Rhino, AutoCAD, Illustrator and VectorWorks. If your model is made of surfaces or poly- gons it is necessary to duplicate the edges of the objects to make 2D lines, you cannot use the surface geometry directly for water-jet cutting. Objects and parts should be made at full-scale on the XY plane with the Z axis up. *Rhino is the prefered application for exporting geometry. BEFORE YOU START The waterjet can cut within an area of 18”x”32”. You will need to inset all your geometry at least 1” from all four sides to ensure proper alignment of material and to allow room for weights to hold the material in place.
