The XP-endo® Shaper Plus sequence, launched by leading Swiss endodon- tic firm FKG Dentaire SA, solves a common problem for dentists: how to treat complex root canal systems without causing damage to the dentinal structure. FKG combined unique Adaptive Core™ technology with 3D design to create instruments that can easily adapt to the canal anatomy to clean once impossible- to-reach areas. The result is enhanced debris removal and irrigation for a more gentle, conservative treatment compared to instrumentation using traditional NiTi files. “The main problem with conven- tional files is their lack of flexibility, which means that dentists can’t re- move all the debris, but sometimes end up taking off too much healthy dentin,” says Thierry Rouiller, CEO of FKG Dentaire. “But that all changes with this XP- endo® generation of instruments.” The patented MaxWire® alloy reacts to the body’s temperature, making the tools highly flexible compared to instruments of the same final size. A small, free-floating adaptive core de- signed in 3D allows the instruments to expand and progress with agility along the canal while resisting to cy- clic fatigue. • The XP-endo® Shaper (XP-S) per- forms 3D debridement of the canal while respecting its natural shape. • The XP-endo® Finisher (XP-F) achieves 3D cleaning and biofilm re- moval, including in areas impossible to reach with traditional files. • The instruments are delivered in a sterile blister pack destined for single patient use, thus maximising safety. With the XP-endo® Shaper Plus se- quence, dentists have the most ad- vanced Swiss precision tools at their fingertips to perform a complete, minimally invasive root canal in- strumentation.
