It is well known that from the quality of root canal processing the whole teeth treatment process depends on. Dentist's mistake at this stage can cost a lot to the patient and dentist himself.
Till now the dentist had no possibility to choose the instrument. He had only hand tools available for channels expanding and transmission. Constantly working with these instruments, dentists hand stuff while being a student.
But still, do not write off difficult cases. For example, the canal may be curved, or tooth root goes to a depth which is exceeding normal standards. Beside the dentist can't see the whole process of treatment. Maximum on what he can put his trust are his own feelings and experiences.
A set of common errors is following: going out of the tooth root tip, a tool belt in the root canal, perforation of the canal sidewall. To correct the situation the doctor has to carry out the surgery: apex resection, retrograde filling, and sometimes to the completely tooth removal.
Fortunately today dentistry is actively developing. New materials (which in their turn are creating new methods of treatment) are invented and introduced into practice. Technology also doesn't stand still. Except terrible dental tooth drill-machine more human techniques appeared. For example, DENTA PORT system by Morita company production. We also have it in our clinic. Doctors have already done the justice to the DENTA PORT system.
The system is presented by endodontic tip, which has an apex locator built into it. Locator allows the dentist to see what he is doing on a special monitor. The display shows the distance to the apex, which reduces the risk of tip inference into periapical tissues. This reduces the risk of substandard tooth channel treatment. If the tool is approaching the apex, its rotational speed automatically starts to reduce. If the root canal is passed through over, the endodontic tip begins to rotate into the opposite direction for making the way out easier. As a result, the tool will not break off and there would be no need to get it out of there. The dentist wouldn't hole the sidewall even he would like to do this much (if he suddenly goes crazy) because if the unit will go deeper into the wall it stops automatically, and then starts to rotate in the opposite direction.
DENTA PORT system enhances the doctor's opportunities. In particular, it allows the use of new materials during filling process, such as, for example, liquid gutta-percha or termafiles.
Maybe the quality of the filling will be appreciated not by all of the patients, but still everyone would notice that they have spent less time in the dental chair than during the same procedure in past.
