Protocol
1
1. Access & Exploration
Prepare access cavity, identify & establish orifice. Explore canal using #10, #15 K-files. Determine working length with radiograph.
2
2. Shaping (4% core system)
#20 -> #25 -> #30 sequence at 350 RPM, 1.5 Ncm. Use brushing motion: take file passively to light resistance, brush out. Clean flutes after every few strokes.
3
3. Wider Canals (6% files)
#35, #40, or #45 (6% taper) for wider primary tooth canals requiring additional preparation.
4
4. Irrigation
Irrigate canal and recapitulate with K-file after each rotary file.
Clinical Tips
- •6-file system: 3 core (4%) + 3 supplementary (6%)
- •4% taper: #20/#25/#30 (assorted pack). 6% taper: #35/#40/#45 (individual packs)
- •16mm short length
- •350 RPM, 1.5 Ncm per manufacturer
- •Brushing motion technique per manufacturer DFU
- •Color coding (4% set): #20=Yellow, #25=Red, #30=Blue
Warnings
- ⚠Heat treatment not specified by manufacturer
- ⚠Do not force the file — use gentle touch per manufacturer DFU
Clinical Notes
- →Manufactured by Orikam Healthcare India Pvt. Ltd. (Gurgaon). Neoendo is the endodontic sub-brand.
- →Triangular cross-section with sharp cutting edges and non-cutting safety tip (per review literature; manufacturer does not explicitly state cross-section)
- →4% core system (#20/#25/#30) sold as assorted 3-file pack; 6% files (#35/#40/#45) sold individually
- →Economical option for pediatric pulpectomy
