## Specifications

| File | Tip (mm) | Taper | Length | Cross-section | Motion | Speed (rpm) | Torque | Role |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| XP-endo Rise Glider | 0.15 | 4% | 21mm, 25mm, 31mm | MaxWire expandable design | Continuous Rotation | 1000 | 1.0 Ncm | glide path |
| XP-endo Rise Shaper | 0.30 | 4% | 21mm, 25mm, 31mm | MaxWire expandable design (2-in-1: shaping + retreatment) | Continuous Rotation | 1000 | 1.0 Ncm | shaping |

## Protocol

### Glide Path

1. **Canal Exploration** — Establish straight-line coronal and radicular access. Explore the canal with an ISO 010 hand file. Determine working length using radiograph and/or apex locator (per IFU).
   - Take several radiographs from different angles to determine canal anatomy (length, width, curvature) — per IFU
   - An ISO 010 hand file is used for initial exploration
2. **Rise Glider to Working Length** — Use XP-endo Rise Glider (15/.04) at 1000 RPM / 1.0 Ncm with gentle strokes to establish the glide path to working length (per IFU). _(File: XP-endo Rise Glider · 1000 RPM · 1.0 Ncm · Continuous rotation with gentle strokes)_
   - The Rise Glider is purpose-designed for this system
   - Irrigate the canal thoroughly after extracting the instrument

### Shaping

1. **Rise Shaper to Working Length** — Shape with XP-endo Rise Shaper (30/.04) at 1000 RPM / 1.0 Ncm with long gentle strokes to working length (per IFU). _(File: XP-endo Rise Shaper · 1000 RPM · 1.0 Ncm · Continuous rotation with long gentle strokes)_
   - MaxWire alloy expands at body temperature to adapt to canal anatomy
   - If the instrument is not progressing easily, remove it, clean it, inspect the cutting edges, irrigate the canal and recapitulate with an ISO 010 hand file (per IFU)
   - Regularly inspect the instrument during use; discard if it shows signs of wear such as straightening (per IFU)
   - ⚠ Maximum of 8 root canals per instrument (per IFU)

### Finishing

1. **Final Cleaning (XP-endo Finisher Recommended)** — Irrigate and proceed with final cleaning. FKG recommends the XP-endo Finisher for supplemental cleaning after shaping (per IFU).
   - XP-endo Finisher (sold separately) is recommended for final canal cleaning
   - Obturate with gutta percha and sealer — FKG recommends TotalFill BC Points and BC Sealer

## Clinical Tips

- Both instruments operate at uniform settings: 1000 RPM / 1.0 Ncm (per IFU).
- The Rise Shaper is a 2-in-1 instrument: it can be used for both initial canal shaping and gutta percha removal during retreatment (per IFU and brochure).
- MaxWire alloy appears straight at room temperature and expands to its programmed shape at body temperature, allowing the file to adapt to canal anatomy.
- Each instrument may treat up to 8 root canals (per IFU), compared to 4 canals for the original XP-endo Shaper.
- The branded Rise Glider is purpose-designed for this system, unlike the original XP-endo Shaper which used any glide path file.
- Per brochure, RACE EVO claims up to 2x faster retreatment compared to conventional protocols when using the Rise Shaper in retreatment mode.
- These instruments have not been tested on children, pregnant, or breastfeeding women (per IFU).

## Warnings

- Maximum of 8 root canals per instrument (per IFU)
- Inspect instruments before use; discard if there are any visible defects (per IFU)
- Regularly inspect during use; discard if the instrument shows signs of wear such as straightening (per IFU)
- Contains nickel; the IFU excludes use in people with known allergic sensitivity to this metal
- Use the instruments in the order of the sequence: glide path first, then shaping (per IFU)
- These instruments have not been tested on children, pregnant, or breastfeeding women (per IFU)
- Irrigate the canal thoroughly and frequently after instrument extraction (per IFU)

## Contraindications

- Known allergic sensitivity to nickel (per IFU)
- Use in children, pregnant, or breastfeeding women has not been tested (per IFU)

## Best for

- minimally invasive canal shaping with anatomical adaptation
- 2-in-1 treatment and retreatment with a single shaper file
- simplified 2-file workflow at uniform motor settings
