Retreatment

Endodontic retreatment involves removing all existing old filling materials. Retreatment in endodontics marks a critical opportunity to correct previous therapeuticoutcomes. The Endo ReStart System, featuring advanced NiTi retreatmentfiles, introduces a streamlined and controlled approach to this process achievablein just a few precise steps.

Key Advantages

Perfectly Balanced

With a consistent taper of .05, the Endo ReStart files strike an ideal balance between stability and flexibility, ensuring reliable performance throughout the
procedure.

Efficient and Minimal

Designed for simplicity, the system allows for effective retreatment using just
one or two instruments, reducing complexity without compromising results.

Optimised Tip Design

The “safe activity” tip features a tapered, non-cutting end, enabling smooth
and controlled penetration of filling materials while minimising the risk of
canal damage.

Dynamic Blade Geometry

The uniquely twisted blades of the Endo ReStart files facilitate efficient
removal of root canal fillings, enhancing the overall effectiveness of the retreatment process.

Why Retreatment Matters

When an initial endodontic treatment fails often due to persistent bacterial infection or
recolonisation of the endodontium retreatment may be the only viable option to
preserve the tooth. The primary goals of orthograde retreatment include:

Thorough removal of existing
filling materials
Access to previously unreachable
canal areas
Complete re-disinfection of the
root canal system

Komet’s comprehensive range of instruments supports these objectives, offering
solutions for all types of filling materials and specialised tools for
retrieving fractured files lodged within the canal.
