Clinical Tip

WaveOne Gold shapes most canals with a single reciprocating file at 150°/30° after its Glider — five instruments cover the range, on a dedicated motor preset. EdgeFile X7 is a fourteen-file continuous-rotation .04/.06 crown-down matrix (17–45) in Fire-Wire wire, pre-bendable and run on one torque setting at 300–500 RPM. Choose WaveOne Gold for single-file efficiency, X7 when you want to choose tip size and taper per canal rather than per case.
