What the manufacturer says

›  What they are. SS White describe EndoGuide® as an innovative set of carbide burs designed for non-surgical endodontic procedures, developed in conjunction with Dr David Clark DDS and Dr John A Khademi DDS MS.

›  What they are designed for. Root canal access and exploration; tactile and magnification-enhanced endodontics; use by endodontists and general dentists.

›  Design aims they list. Funnel-shaped access for file introduction, access to calcified and hidden canals, conserving peri-cervical dentin, and reduced dependence on ultrasonic tips.

›  Tip and shape. Against conventional access burs, SS White describe the micro-diameter tip as leading to more conservative access and the conical shape to more efficient access. They describe the tip as a self-centring guide, and the straight-line pathway as reducing the risk of gouging and perforation when used with an incisal access technique for canal entry.

“This is an ideal bur series for magnification-driven endodontics.”

Eric Herbranson, BS, DDS, MS – quoted in SS White’s EndoGuide® brochure
