Finite element analysis comparing WaveOne Gold and ProTaper Next endodontic file segments subjected to bending and torsional load
Abstract Background The objective of this study was to assess the bending and torsional properties of two nickel-titanium endodontic files with equivalent sizes and various designs and alloys using finite element analysis, ProTaper Next®X2 (PTN) size 25 with 0.06 taper and WaveOne Gold® (WOG) primar...
