Waldent Wal-flex Gold Glide Rotary Files utilizes a proprietary heat treatment which gives it a very unique flexibility, flutes open up when the stress level is reached, yet the file does not present shape memory.
With increased flexibility and more resistance to cyclic fatigue, these files offer many advantages over manual stainless steel files:
Less canal transportation than with manual K-files
Suitable for curved canals
More flexible than manual files
Faster instrumentation time than with manual files
Original canal anatomy is better preserved
ADVANTAGES:
Triangular Cross Section:
Sharp Cutting Edges
Non-Cutting Tip: To minimize apical transportation
Gold Thermal Treatment:
Enhances cutting efficiency
Controlled memory files
350% more resistance to cyclic fatigue
Extreme Flexibility:
To negotiate any canal safely
Preservation of Canal Anatomy
No apical transportation when the working length is long
No formation of ledges when the working length is short
Composition of alloy: Ni – 44% , Ti – 56%
1) Extreme Flexibility:
To negotiate any canal safely
2) Preservation of Canal Anatomy
No apical transportation when the working length is long
No formation of ledges when the working length is short
