Endodontic treatment of a fi rst upper right premo- lar (Tooth 14), extracted for orthodontic reasons. The aim of this procedure was to assess the ability of XP- endo® Shaper to instrument irregularities of the ca- nal system and prepare it for the fi lling. After preparing a glide path to 20/.02, the canals were shaped thanks to the XP-endo® Shaper to the desired fi nal size 30/.04. The XP-endo® Shaper could get to canal irregularities, and maintained the original shape of the canal. Finally, the canals were obturated with TotalFill® BC Points™ and TotalFill® BC Sealer™.

He is a PhD student at the Department of Comprehensive Dentistry of the Medical University of Warsaw and an International Resident of the Continuing Education International Program in Endodontics at the University of Pennsylvania. He deals mostly with Endodontics and endodontic microsurgery. CLINICAL CASE n°3 A 42 years-old caucasian male presented a symptomatic pulpitis. After preparing a glide path to 20/.02, the mesial canals were shaped thanks to the XP-endo® Shaper to the fi nal size 30/.04. The distal canals initially larger than the mesial canals were also shaped with the XP-endo® Shaper creating a space to adapt a size 40/04 TotalFill® BC points™. After shaping, disinfection was completed with the XP-endo® Finisher for all canals. The obturation was carried out with TotalFill® BC points™ and TotalFill® BC sealer™. These technical advantages combined with high-speed continuous rotation and minimum torque, minimise the stresses exerted onto the canal walls and prevent debris compaction in the dentinal tu- bules, they also promote the creation of micro-debris which can be easily eliminated thanks to the turbulence generated by the instru- ment. It provides the patient with a non-aggressive, conservative treatment. This instrument is an amazing new single fi le system from FKG. It allows faster treatment in the majority of the root canals. With its enhanced fl exibility compared to instruments of the same size and its high cyclic fatigue resistance, shaping becomes a simple, safe and quick process. This high-tech instrument helps the dentists to perform their pro- cedures with reproducible success.
