The Reciproc family experience

Longing for one that does it all? Designed to enable shaping without the need for an additional scouting or glidepath instrument  in most cases, the Reciproc family offers you efficiency in time saving through real one file endo.1 On top of it the Reciproc family is one of the most heavily researched NiTi systems worldwide with more than 650 peer reviewed publications.2

Why choose Reciproc family files for root canal shaping?

No initial scouting and glidepath

Prepare root canals efficiently with a single reciprocating instrument, eliminating the need for multiple files in most cases1

Easy to learn and easy to teach

Reduces the variety of procedural errors3 compared to rotary NiTi systems. Instrument moves without pushing so that stress on the dentin is minimized.

Time saving

S-shaped cross section progresses smoothly and cuts efficiently thanks to its special design. Time-saving in comparison to a traditional rotary file system.4

2 alloys to choose: blue & m-wire®

Reciproc Blue featuring blue alloy: original reciprocating motion and blue heat treatment lead to higher resistance to cyclic fatigue and a reduced risk of fracture. Blue heat treated NiTi improves centering abilities of the file to reduce canal transportation.

Reciproc featuring m-wire: our recommendation especially for retreatments.

Based on treatment of MB2 canals of more than 300 patients. The aim was to assess the frequency in which Reciproc® R25 was able to directly scout and reach working lengths in comparison with hand files. In the hand file group working length was successfully reached in 57.48%. In the Reciproc® R25 group the working length was successfully reached in 85.63% of cases.

3. Based on less files in clinical sequence, easy selection of file to suite the case, no change in motor settings. 

4. Less working steps for the customer, no sterilization prior and after use, no change of mechanical file in the contra-angle for most of the cases, less chairside organization
