A bender for stainless steel and NiTi files

Designed by Dr L. Stephen Buchanan, made by Plan B. The EndoBender 2 is a stainless steel hand instrument for putting a precise bend in the first flute of a file. Plan B say it bends stainless steel and NiTi files, even those with shape memory, and also pluggers and PS cannulae.

Questions we get asked

Does it bend NiTi files as well as stainless steel?
Plan B say so, including files with shape memory. Follow the file maker’s own directions for the file you are using.

How is it cleaned and sterilised?
It is supplied non-sterile. Plan B’s general instrument-care instructions say to clean and sterilise before first use and before each use, and give steam cycles of 132 °C for 4 minutes (pre-vacuum) or 121 °C for 30 minutes (gravity displacement), with drying time, while deferring to the autoclave maker’s instructions. It is a general Plan B sheet rather than one written for this instrument alone, so follow your own decontamination procedure.

Is it the same as the Original EndoBender?
No. That is a separate instrument from a different maker, and we stock it too. Both are listed below.
