SmartLite Pro EndoActivator®

After shaping, ~35% or more of canal surfaces are left untouched, yet the long-term success of your endodontic procedure depends on a clean canal.2 The SmartLite Pro EndoActivator is an equipment solution designed for intracanal activation of irrigating fluids used for cleaning and disinfecting root canals. Designed for multi-directional movement, the SmartLite Pro EndoActivator uses elliptical motion and increased energy for effective irrigant activation.

Is active irrigation the key to your Endo success? 

Do you remember the exact root canal irrigation protocol you learned? Has it changed? Are you still following it to the letter? A recent survey found the median irrigation time is 2.5 minutes,5 while a passive bleach soak can take up to 40 minutes to effectively eliminate bacteria!4 For a successful root canal, you of course need proper shaping, cleaning, and obturation, but are you doing all you can during that critical step in root canal disinfection? What about active irrigation?
