Cyclic fatigue resistance and fractographic analysis of RaCe and ProTaper rotary NiTi instruments

Cyclic fatigue resistance and fractographic analysis of RaCe and ProTaper rotary NiTi instruments

INTRODUCTION: This study investigated the fatigue and fracture modes of RaCe and ProTaper rotary instruments. MATERIALS & METHODS: Fatigue resistance was evaluated by rotating the files 30° or 60°and with 2 or 5mm radius of curvature. RaCe taper 06 size 25 and ProTaper F1 files (n=40) were used....
