Abstract

In some embodiments, the distal end of an endodontic brush unevenly (e.g., not along a line perpendicular to the axis of the brush). Optionally, the uneven strands will contact the walls of a channel more evenly and/or will have an increased stirring effect than an evenly cut end may be cut using an abrasive cutter (e.g., a grinding wheel) and/or a laser and/or an electrical discharge machining (EDM) cutter. Optionally, a grinding wheel will rotate opposite the winding of the wire. Optionally, a rounded end may be formed on the wire. In some embodiment, a coupling between an endodontic brush and a handpiece is configured to be held rotationally to the handpiece by friction and/or locked longitudinally into the handpiece by an interference element. In some embodiments, an edge of the brush is roughened. Optionally, the brush may be bent and/or eccentric.

Abstract

In some embodiments, the current invention relates to a method and/or system for using a standard dental handpiece for endodontic cleaning. For example, a dental adapter is disclosed having a fitting for a standard dental handpiece, a torque limiter and/or a mount for an endodontic file. For example, the adapter may be single use and/or multi use. In some embodiments, the mount includes the torque limiter. For example, an endodontic file may be connected to the mount with a friction fitting that allows rotation of the file with respect to the mount at high torque. Optionally the mount is positioned eccentrically with respect to the fitting.

Abstract

An endodontic file (10) has a handle (11) and a spiral cord (15) of helically wound metallic wire wound in a predetermined direction around a central metallic cord (13) formed between opposite ends of the central cord so as to form an integrated structure (18) of generally conical cross-section including a narrow tip end (17) and an opposite wider upper end (16) supported at the upper end by the handle. A flexible conical reinforcement (26, 31) supported by the handle covers an outermost layer of an upper portion of the spiral cord remote from the tip end, its lower end being of sufficiently low diameter to enter the root canal and dimensioned at its upper end to limit bending of the upper portion. An outer surface (20) of the spiral cord is configured for removing material from inside the root canal when the endodontic file is rotated in the predetermined direction.

Abstract

An endodontic file for a motorized rotary handpiece includes a coupler element for coupling to the handpiece, a central longitudinal flexible core including a central flexible cable supported by the coupler element, and a helical wire surrounding the core and extending toward a tip of the core opposite the handle end. The flexible core includes a first plurality of inner strands twisted together in a first direction and surrounded by a second plurality of outer strands twisted in an opposite direction. The tip of the core is chamfered and unbonded and protrudes beyond the helical wire at the tip whereby in use reversing a direction of rotation of the endodontic file after the tip of the core reaches the apex of the root canal, unwinds the outer strands, which operate as a brush during removal of the endodontic file from the root canal.
