TruShape Files

Part of saving more teeth...

Is Saving More Tooth

TruShape 3D Conforming Files are the next evolution in cleaning and shaping the complex canal anatomy. They allow you to preserve more dentinal structure while removing pulp and debris along the entire root canal. And they provide advantages to cleaning a root canal system compared to conventional instrumentation techniques with ISO rotary files.


Shaping files

TruShape Orifice Modifier

The TruShape Orifice Modifier is designed to modify the orifice and create an ideal receptacle for the introduction of TruShape 3D Conforming Files. It features:

  • An active cutting cross-section
  • Fluted length of about 7 mm
  • A maximum fluted diameter (MFD) of .75mm to facilitate conservative radicular access
  • Blue wire NiTi for strength and flexibility

TruShape 3D Conforming Files

See the 3D Conforming Difference. The S-shape makes it possible.

The key to the TruShape difference lies in the file’s unique S-shape design, allowing it to conform to areas of the canal larger than the nominal file size. This creates an envelope of motion that better disrupts biofilms for improved bacterial reduction. As a result, TruShape 3D Conforming Files allow you to preserve more dentinal structure while removing pulp and debris along the entire root canal.

  • Contact up to 75% of walls along the entire canal.
  • Create a predictable apical shape with up to 32% less transportation.
  • Now your file helps with disinfection by disrupting biofilms and significantly reducing bacteria.
  • Remove up to 36% less dentin with superior overall shaping.

Obturation materials

TruShape Conform Fit Gutta-Percha Points

The TruShape Conform-Fit gutta-percha master cones combine a "Tru" apical shape with a parallel mid root and coronal design. This provides the clinician a master cone adaptable to irregular geometries for a variety of clinical situations.

  • Precision-machined
  • Micronized formula delivers warm gutta-percha > 4 mm beyond the heat source
  • Maximum coronal diameter of .70mm to prevent binding in conservative preps

Accessories

TruShape Absorbent Paper Points

  • Feathered tip
  • Can be cut to any size
  • Available in sizes .04 and .06

Compatible equipment

Dentsply Sirona offers two motors choices with pre-programmed settings for TruShape Files.

ProMark Endo Motor

The Mark of Performance

Built upon a tradition of performance and reliability, the ProMark is our most versatile and complete endodontic motor for rotary and reciprocation. The brushless motor delivers the ample power and consistency of full A/C mains power and is compatible with a variety of e-type handpieces.

X-Smart IQ Cordless Endo Motor

Redefining the Endo Experience

X-Smart IQ is a continuous and reciprocating cordlesss motor controlled by an Apple® iOS® application. In one cordless handpiece, you get a full-treatment solution that supports you through every step of your endodontic process - from patient education to treatment data.

Testimonials

When using TruShape 3D Conforming Files, clinicians will find the shape reflects the natural anatomy, with no apical transportation." said Dr. Antonio Berto, "I’ve found the files have better contact with canal walls, allowing for a better cleaning of irregular geometries and a better disruption of biofilms to reduce bacteria, all while removing less dentin than conventional ISO preparation.”

Dr. Antonio Berto, Dallas, TX


Research

Shen Y, Hieawy A, Huang X, Wang Z, Maezono H, Haapasalo M. Fatigue Resistance of a 3-dimensional Conforming Nickel-Titanium Rotary Instrument in Double Curvatures. J Endod. 2016; In Press

Conclusion: TruShape was superior to ProFile and Vortex Blue in terms of fatigue resistance in double curvature canals.

 

Bonessio N, Arias A, Lomiento G, Peters OA. Effect of root canal treatment procedures with a novel rotary nickel-titanium instrument (TruShape) on stress in mandibular molars: a comparative finite element analysis. Odontology. 2016.

Conclusion: The limited (up to 0.7 %) retained radicular dentin in the TruShape versus the Vortex cavity proved effective in reducing masticatory stresses.

 

Peters OA, Arias A, Paqué F. A Micro-computed Tomographic Assessment of Root Canal Preparation with a Novel Instrument, TruShape, in Mesial Roots of Mandibular Molars. J Endod. 2015;41(9):1545-50.

Conclusion: TruShape provided conservation of dentin by limiting dentin removal and in the absence of substantial canal transportation. In the present study, the use of TruShape in the mesial canals of mandibular molars did not result in decreased amounts of unprepared canal surface.

 

Bortoluzzi EA, Carlon D, Meghil MM, et al. Efficacy of 3D conforming nickel-titanium rotary instruments in eliminating canal wall bacteria from oval-shaped root canals. J Dent. 2015;43(5):597-604.

Conclusion: TruShape files removed significantly more canal wall bacteria than Twisted Files when used without an antibacterial irrigant; the latter is required to decontaminate dentinal tubules.
