Endodontics

Dental Endodontics Instruments

Endodontics is a branch of dentistry that focuses on the treatment of the dental pulp and tissues surrounding the root of a tooth. The use of specialized endodontic instruments is crucial for performing procedures like root canal treatments and ensuring effective tooth preservation. Below are key categories of dental endodontic instruments.

Rubber Dam Instruments

Rubber dams are used to isolate the tooth being treated, keeping it dry and free from 
contamination during endodontic procedures. These instruments are designed for placing, adjusting, and securing the rubber dam effectively.

Endodontic Explorers 

Endodontic explorers are fine, precise instruments used to examine the root canal system, 
detect blockages, locate canals, and assist in the cleaning and shaping of the root canals 
during endodontic treatments.

Endodontic explorers are used to examine the root canal system thoroughly. They allow the dentist to detect cracks, locate blocked canals, and assess the health of the pulp. These instruments are key in diagnosing the extent of damage and planning appropriate treatment.
