Influence of cyclic torsional loading on the fatigue resistance of K3XF instruments.
Objective: To evaluate the torsional and cyclic fatigue behavior of post-machining heat-treated K3XF and conventional K3 nickel titanium (NiTi) instruments. Methodology: New K3XF and K3 files size 25/0.04 (n = 15) were tested in torsion and fatigue tests until fracture to determine the mean number...
