General information
Parameters for use:
Recommended speed range: 800-1000 rpm continuous rotation.
Torque: 1.5 Ncm.
Indications for use :
RACE® EVO endodontic instruments are intended for use in medical or hospital
facilities, by qualified health professionals.
RACE® EVO instruments are designed for accessing, glide path and shaping of
root canals.
RACE® EVO instruments are to be used with gentle strokes of 2-3 mm, applying
very light apical pressure and allowing the instrument to progress passively
along the canal. After 3 strokes, remove and clean the instrument, then
irrigate ; recapitulate with an ISO 010 hand file. If necessary, a brushing
motion may be applied to remove coronal interferences and/or ensure uniform
shaping of irregular canals.
Contraindications:
Nickel-Titanium instruments must not be used on individuals with a known
allergic sensitivity to these metals.
Adverse reactions: None known.
Notice and precautions:
- Take several radiographs from different angles to determine the anatomy of the root canals (length, width and curvature).
- The number of canals to be treated with a RACE® EVO instrument is limited to a maximum of 8 root canals.
- Irrigate the canal thoroughly and frequently after the RACE® EVO instrument is extracted.
- Regularly inspect the RACE® EVO instrument during use, and discard if it shows any signs of wear (for example : straightening).
- If the RACE® EVO instrument is not progressing easily, remove it from the canal, clean it, inspect its cutting edges, then irrigate the canal and recapitulate with an ISO 010 hand file.
- Always inspect the instrument(s) before use, and discard (it) them if there are any visible defect(s).
- When an instrument reaches the end of its life, please dispose of it in accordance with the applicable laws and regulations.
- Visit the FKG Dentaire SA website (www.fkg.ch) for all information relating to the applicable cleaning and sterilization methods.
