NEW ULTRASONIC TIPS
FOR ACCESS CAVITY REFINEMENT AND CANAL
ORIFICE LOCATION
ULTRASONIC ENDO TIPS – THE NEW RANGE
Start-X™, a range of 5 tips for access cavity refinement and canal openings location, dedicated to the General Dental Practitioner
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
Development in collaboration with Prof Berutti, Prof Cantatore and Dr Castellucci
support of 3 internationally renowned Opinion Leaders as well as of the Dentsply Maillefer OPL network
quality evidence thanks to their expertise
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
One Tip – One Clinical Indication
simplicity
new approach, at the opposite of what other manufacturers do (one tip has multiple possible applications), that enables the GDP, unfamiliar with ultrasonic inserts, to know exactly which tip to use in which situation
Field of use = exclusively in the access cavity
no microscope needed = adapted to the GDP
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
Hard-tempered Stainless Steel
excellent resistance to fracture and wear
•tips can vibrate in the air without breakage
•according to our tests and those conducted by the 3 KOLs, these instruments can last for an average of 2 hours (when used in their dedicated clinical application). That corresponds to 2-3 months intensive use.
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
Micro Milled Active Part
smooth finish
minimized risk of potential diamond grit loss in the patient’s mouth
“easy” to clean
cutting efficiency similar or superior to diamond-coated instruments
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
≈ 30%
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
Water port
cools down the insert and avoids overheating the treated tooth (particularly important when removing metal posts)
the intermittent use of irrigation enables the clinician to alternate between dry precision work and debris evacuation
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
Two threads – Satelec type (M3 x 0.6mm) and EMS type (M3 x 0.5mm)
compatible with most common ultrasonic generators (Satelec, EMS, NSK, etc). Mectron units only work with Mectron tips
no adapter needed (=> vibrations not affected)

ULTRASONICS & ENDODONTICS
APPLICATIONS & ADVANTAGES
ULTRASONICS & ENDODONTICS
Most frequent applications of ultrasonic in endodontics
Access refinement and canal location
Removal of intracanal obstructions (separated instruments, posts, etc)Non-surgical retreatment (removal of GP, cement, etc)
Surgical endodontics
Increase action of irrigant solutions
ULTRASONICS & ENDODONTICS
Main reasons to use ultrasonics in endodontic applications
“Improved visualization combined with a more conservative approach when selectively removing tooth structure, particularly in difficult situations in which a specific angulation or tip design permits access to restricted areas, offers opportunities that are not possible with conventional treatment”JOE – “Ultrasonics in Endodontics” Feb 2007
Compared to burs/rotating instruments:
better view of the operative field greater cutting precision (better control of the amount of dentin removed)
START-X™
TIPS APPLICATIONS
Non active tip → avoids accidentally damaging the pulp chamber floor
Active lateral part → eliminates interferences for a direct access into the canal
START-X™ #1 – ACCESS CAVITY WALLS REFINEMENT
Main advantages of the tip
Compared to burs that are usually used for this application (ex: Endo-Z, conical diamond, etc), Start-X™ #1 has the following advantages:
• less dentin removed• better visibility• less vibration
START-X™ #1 – ACCESS CAVITY WALLS REFINEMENT
START-X™ #2 – MB2 CANAL SCOUTER
Active tip → transports the orifice of the MB2 from its original location (underneath the mesial wall) to the floor of the pulp chamber
Active lateral part → eliminates interferences for a direct access into the canal
Main advantages of the tip
Without this instrument, it can be often be difficult for the clinician to see the orifice. Even when it can be seen, the canal is often only negotiated for only 2-3 millimeters before the procedure is stopped, because the clinician thinks the canal is calcified.
Start-X™ #2 = Straight line access to the canal
START-X™ #2 – MB2 CANAL SCOUTER
START-X™ #3 – CANAL OPENINGS SCOUTER
Active tip → removes the obstructions that prevent a straight access to the canal (calcifications, filling materials, pulp stones)
Main advantages of the tip
Even the smallest burs are too big and can remove too much tissues. Other ultrasonic tips are expensive, fragile and do not last as long (lost of diamond grits)
Start-X™ #3 =
• Very efficient• Precise• Safer (better visibility)
START-X™ #3 – CANAL OPENINGS SCOUTER
START-X™ #4 – METAL POST REMOVAL
Specific design → suitable for working efficiently both on the top and on the sides of the metal post
Water port → avoids over heating
Main advantages of the tip
Apart from the TUFI tip, Start-X™ #4 is cheaper than competition (ProUltra #1, ETPR from Satelec, EN 1 from Amdent, ER 1 from Mectron, etc)
START-X™ #4 – METAL POST REMOVAL
START-X™ #5 – PULP CHAMBER FLOOR
Active tip → canal orifice location made easier thanks to the removal of calcifications and filling materials that hide the original floor anatomy
Thin & cylindrical → good visibility
Main advantages of the tip
It is impossible to finish the pulp chamber floor using burs without damaging the original anatomy and creating perforations.
Start-X™ #5 enables the clinician to discover the original anatomy of the floor (development lines help locate the root canal orifices) without alterations.
START-X™ #5 – PULP CHAMBER FLOOR
START-X™ TIPS – OTHER UNOFFICIAL INDICATIONS
Start-X™ #1
Removal of temporary filling material
Start-X™ #3
Removal of fiber posts
