Clinical Tip

Perfect Dental positions RC as its entry-level counterpart to RECIPROC — the same R25/R40/R50 naming and 25/.08, 40/.06, 50/.05 dimensions in conventional NiTi at 250–360 rpm and 2.0–3.0 Ncm, documented by the manufacturer's IFU spec table only. Choose RECIPROC for the studied original in M-Wire with a dedicated RECIPROC motor mode, published kinematics and independent performance data.
