Main
ProTaper GOLD is the latest addition to the world famous ProTaper family developed by Dentsply Sirona Endodontics in collaboration with international endodontic key opinion leaders.
ProTaper GOLD is an upgrade from ProTaper Universal and is designed specifically for ProTaper Universal users who do not want to change their technique but would benefit from the increased safety delivered by the latest developments in metallurgy – GOLD proprietary processing.
ProTaper GOLD keeps the same philosophy as the first generation of ProTaper (file sequence, file sizes, motor settings, obturation methods) with strong additional benefits like increased flexibility (24% on average) and greater resistance to cyclic fatigue (2.6 times greater on an F3 finishing file).
The ProTaper GOLD file system is available now and will replace the current ProTaper Universal file system on 1 October 2016.
To find out more about ProTaper GOLD contact Dentsply Sirona on 0800 072 3313 or visit www.dentsply.com/en-uk.
