EDM manufacturing creates compressive surface stresses for superior fatigue resistance
CM-Wire allows pre-bending that persists during use
Spirals may lengthen in response to force - prevents binding and reduces breakage risk
Shape regenerates during autoclaving (or 10 sec in glass bead sterilizer) if elastically deformed
Files supplied pre-sterilized via gamma irradiation
Obturation Techniques
Single cone, warm vertical, carrier-based & lateral compaction
