Apical Shaper
Apical Shaper
The Apical Shaper instrument is an "Apical Finishing" instrument.
Its use is recommended when the canal foramen is gauged with a diameter greater than that of the last instrument used.
For this reason, it can be indicated **in addition to any other

L’information produit
Par Stéphane Simon
Tissue economy is becoming almost an obsession in endodontics.
Reducing the taper of shaping instruments is sometimes limiting on teeth that have a slightly wide shape. The majority of shaping instruments with a wide diameter are wide in their coronal part and are therefore not in line with the principles of saving hard tissue.
The Apical Shaper with its 3% taper is very interesting for achieving apical shaping without having to widen the coronal and middle thirds.
It can be used in addition to any existing system. We particularly recommend it in combination with the Slimshaper or the Excalibur.

Description
The tip diameter is wide:
- 30/100 (Z30)
- 35/100 (Z35)
- 40/100 (Z40)
- 50/100 (Z50)
Its conicity is 3% and therefore reduced compared to other systems. The objective is to release the instrument in its coronal part which has already been shaped. The Apical Shaper just "prints" the shape of its tip in the last 2 or 3 millimeters of the canal.
The incredible flexibility of this instrument is due to:
- The Nickel Titanium Blue alloy obtained by heat treatment
- The parallelogram section of the instrument.
This section gives it high cutting efficiency, with high resistance to cyclic fatigue.
- Recommended for single use only.
- Speed: 150 to 300 rpm
- Torque control: 2 to 2.5 N/cm
The instrument is sold in packs of 6 instruments in individual sterile blisters.
Also sold in assortments of 4 sizes in packs of 4 instruments (individual blisters, sterile)
