FKG Bio Race file. Basic description of the FKG Bio Race rotary file system, suggested for the students in our courses, part of the guide for the main systems available in Brazil.
Description of the fab ricant:
FKG BioRace rotary files are a sequence of nickel-titanium instruments with low tapping effect.
The BioRaCe sequence is unique and has been specially developed to provide the recommended apical enhancements without the need for additional steps or instruments.
Using the sequence according to the instructions, the professional can clean most of the canals with only 5 NiTi instruments.
BioRaCe files differ from the well-known RaCe files with regard to size, conicity and instrument sequence.
BioRace's main goal is to arrive at apical preparation sizes that are scientifically proven to effectively disinfect the canal.
characteristics
- The cutting edge ensures optimum efficiency;
- The combination of a triangular section and alternating cutting blades (spirals) ensures efficient debris removal;
- Safety Tip, FKG's unique safety tip ensures safe/centered penetration into the canal;
- The reduction in the number of instruments required for canal preparation offers savings, comfort, and time savings;
- The preservation of dentin thickness increases the chances of long-term success;
- Electro-chemical surface polishing, giving greater resistance to fatigue and corrosion;
- Active part with innovative anti-squeaking design allows you to work smoothly while maintaining tactile sensitivity.
- Torque* (most cases) = 1Ncm
- Speed= 500 to 600 rpm.
BioRace Sequence
The BioRace Basic Set is an extremely safe sequence of six instruments.
In most cases, it was concluded that to achieve adequate elimination of bacteria from the root canal, the apical third of the canal should be treated with the minimum sizes shown, ISO 35 or 40.
The BioRace sequence is specially designed to achieve the required apical dimension without the need for additional steps or files.
By using the BioRace system, the biological goal of root canal treatment can be achieved without compromising efficiency.
