The latest introductions to the range of Sendoline endodontic products from The Dental Directory are the Gutta Percha Remover Intro Kit, a File Extractor and Individual Endogrips.

The new gutta percha remover system will remove old filling material from the root canal and the instruments are used with the 'crown down' technique. The File Extractor has a unique and flexible spiral to facilitate easy and safe removal of fractured instruments in straight or bent canals. Users simply loosen the fragment, insert the extractor into the root canal, twist it 180° clockwise, the spring then opens and can be pulled over the instrument; the extractor is then twisted anti-clockwise with a pulling motion to slowly remove the fragment.

Endogrip is a sleeve made of sterilisable silicone rubber, giving files a thicker handle making them ideal for use with gloves.

For the purpose of identification it is coded with four different colours to represent the different file types.
