Dentsply Start-X Tip Satelac #5

Description

Start-X Ultrasonic Tips is a new, simple addition to the current DENTSPLY Maillefer ultrasonic Endodontic tips range, designed to improve the quality of Endodontic treatments. 

These simple-to-use tips have multiple applications so that the dentist knows exactly which tip to use in which situation. The tips are made of hard-tempered stainless steel so they have strong resistance to wear and tear and the tips can vibrate in the air without breaking. A micro-milled active part creates a smooth finish and minimises the risk of diamond grit loss in the patient’s mouth.

ADVANTAGES

• MICRO MILLED ACTIVE PART – Minimized risk of potential diamond grit loss in the patient’s mouth

WATER PORT

• Cools down the insert and avoids overheating of the treated tooth. This is particularly important when removing metal posts which usually require high energy
• The intermittent use of irrigation enables the clinician to alternate between dry precision work and debris evacuation.

Key Features

• Developed in conjunction with Dr. Berutti, Dr. Cantatore and Dr. Castellucci
• Based on a simple concept of ‘One – Tip – One Clinical Indication’
• Great working precision and incomparable view of the operative field
• Tips with micro milled active part, water port and excellent resistance to fracture
• Each tip has been designed for a specific indication
• Strong resistance to wear and tear
• Creates smooth finish
• Minimizes risk of diamond grit loss
