Clinical Tip
Both are crown-down constant-taper systems in .04 and .06 from size 15 to 50. EndoSequence is electropolished conventional NiTi at 500–600 RPM with the Expeditor sizing file; Vortex Blue adds blue heat treatment at 500 RPM with file-specific torque and recommends the .04 taper past mid-root curvature. Choose Vortex Blue for curved canals, EndoSequence for the canal-sized kit and matching BC obturation.
