PROTAPER

Protaper means progressive taper to improve flexibility and cutting efficiency. The change percentage of taper over the length of cutting blades adds to its unique feature. Variable tip diameters of protaper file allow it to have specific cutting action in defines arear of the canal without stressing instrument in other sections. The helical change angle over its cutting blades reduces the instrument from screeing into the canal and allows better removal of debris. It works on the principle of active motion which increases its efficiency and reduces torsional strain. Length of protaper reduced from 15 to 12.5mm for better access in the posterior region.

Niti protaper has 55% nickel and 45% titanium which has an advantage on shape memory, superelasticity, low modules of elasticity, corrosion-resistant, softer, good resiliency and biocompatibility. The protaper system consists of just three shaping and five finishing files.

Sx-orange coloured handle and use for the shaping of the orifice.

S1-purple coloured ring and used to prepare coronal part of the root.

S2-white coloured ring and used to prepare middle 1/3rd of the canal.

F1-yellow coloured ring and used to prepare apical third of the canal.

F2-red coloured ring and prepare apical third of the canal.

F3-blue coloured ring on the handle and used to prepare apical third of the canal.

F4-black coloured ring on the handle and used to prepare the apical 1/3rd of the canal.

F5-double yellow coloured ring and use to prepare apical 1/3rd of a canal.

There is retreatment protaper file also in protaper system which is a new edition in the treatment.

D1-11mm handle 16mm cutting surface,9% taper and for coronal filling removal.

D2-11mm handle,18mm cutting blades,8% taper and for middle filling removal.

D3-11mm Handle,22mm Cutting Blade,7%Taper and for apical filling removal.

Protaper gold is those with increased flexibility, greater resistance to cyclic fatigue and shorter handle of 11mm.Rotary protaper Niti files simplify root canal preparation, particularly in curved and restricted canals and their recommended speed is 15-350rpm.

DENTAL POST

The post is used to support the crown and make a tooth larger and helps to regain anatomy and function to a tooth that was destroyed or weakened. It protects what remains of the tooth for possible fractures, retention and distribution of occlusal forces.there are two types of post material used in dentistry i.e metal or non-metal.

The metallic post comes in Pre-fabricated and post-fabricated forms. The prefabricated are stainless steel or titanium. They are easier, faster, cheaper, and less abusive to the tooth. The post fabricated can be made up of gold type iii or iv. They have high tensile strength, compression and deformation which means they have a high modulus of elasticity and cannot be screwed.

The non-metallic post is made up of zirconium,resin-reinforced with glass fibre reinforced resin and carbon fibre.The zirconia post has an extremely high modulus of elasticity. The fibreglass and carbon have a modulus of elasticity similar to dentin and they have least likely to cause root fractures. They are way cheaper, faster, easier, requires less wear layer than zirconium.

There are various characteristics of dental post for including size, length and forms. The size of the post should not exceed one-third of the root diameter. Conversely, increasing the removal of the dental structure to accommodate a wide pole can lead to perforation nor predispose root fracture. The length of a post must be equal to or greater than the length of the crown. It is recommended between half and three fourth parts of the tooth root.There are smooth,striated,conical,parallel,assets,hybrid,rigid,flexible,liabilities post forms available in the dental market.Adhesive and non-adhesive cement is used to cement this post.

Merits of using post are they reduce the risk of root fracture and carbon post allows the stumps in the single session. Demerits are that metal post are very rigid and stress transfer to the tooth root, expensive because of its chemical components and metal post are transparent showing an opacity in the central part of the tooth and gums.

Root Canal Sealers

Root canal sealers are day to day used material used in dentistry. They are used in conjunction with biologically acceptable semi-solid or solid obturating material to establish an adequate seal of the root canal system. It is used along with gutta-percha for obturation of root canal. Some root canal sealer can be complete sealers where no gutta percha is necessary. It function is to obturate lateral canals, serves s a filler for canal irregularities and minor discrepancies between the root canal wall and core filling material, act as a lubricant, can assist in microbial control and for radiopacity.sealer should provide an excellent seal when setting,produce adequate adhesion between itself,non-staining,dimensionally stable,easily removed,non-irritating and insoluble in tissue fluids.There are many dealers are dental market which is highly used by dentist and currently employed sealers are-

Most widely used sealer is Grossman's sealer because it has good sealing potential because of small volumetric change on setting.Glass ionomer sealer are not used nowadays because of difficulty to remove from a root canal. Ah, plus doesn’t release formaldehyde during setting and hence safer than other resin-based sealers.The component zinc oxide eugenol can be placed in the root canal cavity temporarily to reduce inflammation and sensitivity. Application of endodontic sealers can be via syringe, hand mix and premeasured capsules.

ORTHODONTIC BRACKETS

In this new era most of the people aware that lower third of the face especially the teeth are vital for social communication and acceptance. Due to this, orthodontics comes into play. It aims to align teeth to achieve optimum aesthetics and function. The treatment used to correct a malocclusion, a condition caused by crowded, crooked or protruding teeth where jaws do not meet properly. It can be inherited or acquired by thumb sucking, premature loss of teeth or an accident. Now the treatment is more comfortable and takes less time than it did years ago.

Brackets are the most important element or in simple words, it is the tool that holds the wire. Brackets are made up of metal, plastic, ceramic or combination of these.They are classified according to the Size(large/mini/ultra 

mini),Base(straight/curved),Width(narrow/medium/wide),and may be single or thin according to the technique used.Brackets materials must be hygienic, non-toxic, resistant to corrosion, esthetics, not absorb water, not discoloured by an oral liquid, minimal bracket wire friction.

Some are visible or noticeable and some are non-visible or not noticeable. Some shaped like hearts and football. There are now gold plated braces and glow in the dark retainers in the dental market. There are two types of brackets treatment which is fixed or removable depending upon the needs and how well he or she will follow instructions regarding oral care and hygiene. There are various types of brackets like bonable/weldable, lingual. edgewise, clear etc.in the dental market and used according to the treatment plan by the dentist.

Patients often exhibit gingival hypertrophy, bleeding, increased plaque accumulation and calculus formation during orthodontic treatment. It is also difficult to remove microbial growth or clean orthodontic appliance fixed at the critical site leading to enamel decalcification and white spot lesion formation around the orthodontic appliance.
