The ProTaper Gold SX rotary file is an endodontic instrument designed for initial root canal preparation and widening of the coronal part of the root canal. Thanks to Gold heat-treatment technology, the file offers high flexibility and increased resistance to mechanical loads, allowing safe and predictable work during the early stages of root canal treatment. The instrument is designed for effective preparation of the canal ahead of further work with the ProTaper Gold system's shaping and finishing files.
Effective widening of the coronal part of the canal
The SX file allows efficient preparation of the root canal entrance and removal of dentine from the coronal part. Its well-designed working-part geometry supports smooth canal shaping and helps achieve straight-line access to the deeper sections of the canal system.
Flexibility and control
The file technology increases the instrument's ability to adapt to the anatomy of the root canal. High flexibility and resistance to mechanical loads help maintain safe working and reduce the risk of unwanted changes to the canal path. Stable work in continuous rotation gives the operator full control during preparation.
