Procodile Q. The evolution of flexibility.

Q stands for heat

The new Procodile Q file is heat-treated so that it can contribute even more effectively to a successful endodontic treatment. The heat treatment makes the file easier to bend while increasing the flexibility and safety.

Adaptable

Optimum preparation even of curved canals

In combination with the variably tapared file core and the Double-S-cross-section, the heat-treated material lends the Prodcodile Q file an unprecedented flexibility. The file follows the anatomic course even of curved canals, so that the preparation can go ahead in complete safety.

Unique

The variably tapered file core

The preparation of the root canal using a file with a constant taper ensures a homogeneous obturation. The ProcodileQ file has a variably tapared file core. With this new feature, the diameter of the core decreases towars the shank, which make the file even hungrier and more adaptable.

Hungry

Fast and effective substance removal

The variably tapered file core of the Procodile Q file increases its chip space. As a result, infected tissue is removed from the canal even more effectively in very little time.

Resilient

Increased safety for the user and the patient

Procodile Q files are clearly more resilient than other files on the market. They are up to 300% more resistant to cyclic fatigue, compared to the files of other reciprocating file systems. This significantly reduces the risk of file fracture.

For a new sense of safety proven by various tests and studies.

Flexibility beyond average.

Komet’s Procodile Q is the first heat-treated reciprocating file system with a variable tapered core. The heat-treatment ensures prebendability while also creating a flexibility only few can match – for optimum preparation, even of curved canals. As the University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston confirms: Procodile Q’s flexibility is by far higher than the one observed in WaveOne Gold® files.

Safer than ever before.

In terms of durability, Procodile Q is yet to be beaten. Data by the Dental Advisor Biomaterials Research Center confirms that Procodile Q’s cyclic fatigue resistance lasted between 197 % and 325 % longer than WaveOne Gold’s®, which reduces the risk of fractures and this increases the safety during the procedure.

The Dental Advisor Biomaterials Research Center also detected that significant unwinding was found in all three sizes of WaveOne Gold® files, but in only one size of Procodile Q (after three canals) which again emphasizes the durability of Procodile Q files.

Efficiency at its best.

The Dental Advisor data study also proves: With a cutting rate 16 % faster than WaveOne Gold®, Procodile Q files are the perfect fit for a fast and efficient preparation of the root canal4. In addition, the tapered core helps to remove infected tissue effectively, extrude debris coronally, and thus can help to lower the risk of postoperative infections.

Procodile Q is the stronger, faster, and more durable file.

These studies prove us right – with a superior flexibility, longer durability, higher safety, and a variety of file sizes, Procodile Q masters all challenges of your work routine.
