The aim of this study is to demonstrate the ability of our ultrasonic endodontic dental device with rotary nickel-titanium alloy instruments for the root canal treatment. This study is aimed at investigating the cleaning and shaping efficacy with “Ultrasonic device for endodontic treatment of dental’s canals. The purpose of root canal treatment is to get rid of the damaged pulp and the bacteria that are causing the infection. It involves removing inflamed or dead nerves and blood vessels’ from the centre of the tooth whit an ultrasonic endodontic device. This is done by drilling a hole through the top of the tooth to the root canal and removing the dead tissue. The empty root canal is then cleaned, filled and a permanent seal is put over the top of the tooth. After the main requirements for an successful endodontic treatment and after the elimination of all debris, the need for root canal preparation has long been accepted as an essential step in root canal therapy. Our ultrasonic endodontic device use rotary instrument of nickel-titanium alloy actionated by an ultrasonic device. The endodontic files from a nickel-titanium alloy with a very low modulus of elasticity which have been shown to have two to tree times more elastic flexibility in bending and torsion, as well as superior resistance to torsional fracture.
