Description
Jitesh S and two co-authors compare two ways to fish broken dental files out of molar roots, in this twenty twenty-four lab study. Thin metal files sometimes snap inside a root canal during cleaning, and the stuck tip must be removed. The team tested two platform techniques for the job.
Forty pulled human molars with bent roots were used. A short piece of file was snapped deep in one canal of each tooth, using both spinning and back-and-forth file types. Teeth were split between the two removal methods. Success and time were compared. The results help dentists pick a retrieval method when a file breaks.
