Ultrasonic endo range from Satelec

Endodontics

The challenge for endodontists to ensure successful root canal treatment involves the thorough removal of all dentinal debris and biofilm from the canals. This can be difficult due to the complex anatomy of the root canal and inefficient cleaning and disinfection will increase the chance of further pain and retreatment for patients.


Ultrasonic irrigation of the root canal is an effective addition to syringe irrigation, especially in the apical third of the tooth. The vibration generated by ultrasonic tips creates a vortex that enhances the flow and efficiency of the irrigant through the entire root canal.

As a leader in the field of ultrasonic dentistry, Acteon Satelec offer an innovative range of ultrasonic instruments for all endodontic procedures. Available in handy, autoclavable kits, Acteon now have the EndoSuccess Retreatment Kit and Apical Surgery Kit, as well as the IrriSafe irrigation tips.

The EndoSuccess Retreatment Kit contains six ultrasonic instruments to cover all aspects of orthograde endodontics: canal localization, cavity access preparation, retreatment and loosening of posts or crowns. Titanium-Niobium (Ti-Nb) is an alloy exclusive to Satelec which allows more flexibility for the tip to treat curved canals and to transmit ultrasound more efficiently.

IrriSafe is designed for the safe removal of the smear layer, dentinal debris and bacteria from the root canal during Passive Ultrasonic Irrigation (PUI). The shape of the new instruments improve micro-streaming and micro-cavitation in the fluids.

The EndoSuccess Apical Surgery Kit consists of five instruments all designed to address different anatomical configurations. These tips allow for more precise treatment and conservation of bone and dental tissues.
