Clinical Tip
BioRaCe follows the Debellian and Trope biological crown-down technique with six electropolished conventional-NiTi files (BR0–BR5) at 600 RPM / 1.0 Ncm, plus an Extended Set with .02 tapers for severe curvature; ProTaper Gold uses gold heat-treated progressive-taper files at 300 RPM with graduated torque. Choose BioRaCe for the low-torque high-speed biological protocol, ProTaper Gold for heat-treated flexibility in a fixed sequence.
