Mechanical Properties and Torque/Force Generation of XP-Endo Shaper, Trunatomy, Spring Endo File, and Spring Endo Heated Finish File, Part 1

We evaluated the mechanical properties and torque/force generated during canal shaping by four NiTi files with innovative designs. Each of the 52 TruNatomy Prime, XP-endo Shaper, Spring Endo files with unheated finish (Spring Endo), and Spring Endo files with heated finish (Spring H) were subjected...

description We evaluated the mechanical properties and torque/force generated during canal shaping by four NiTi files with innovative designs. Each of the 52 TruNatomy Prime, XP-endo Shaper, Spring Endo files with unheated finish (Spring Endo), and Spring Endo files with heated finish (Spring H) were subjected to bending, buckling, cyclic fatigue, and torsional resistance tests (<i>n</i> = 10 per NiTi file type). Canal shaping was simulated with J-shaped resin blocks (<i>n</i> = 10). Phase transformation behavior was investigated using differential scanning calorimetry (<i>n</i> = 2). Statistical analysis was performed by one-way ANOVA and the Games-Howell test. Spring Endo and Spring H files showed higher bending and buckling resistances, ultimate torsional strength, and elastic modulus than TruNatomy and XP-endo Shaper (<i>p</i> < 0.05). XP-endo Shaper demonstrated the highest cyclic fatigue resistance and angle of rotation to fracture (<i>p</i> < 0.05). The elastic modulus increased in the order of XP-endo Shaper, TruNatomy Prime, Spring H, and Spring Endo. During simulated canal shaping, XP-endo Shaper generated greater clockwise torque and less screw-in force compared to Spring Endo files, with superior cutting ability. TruNatomy Prime generated the least clockwise torque and screw-in force. At room temperature, TruNatomy and XP-endo Shaper files consisted of mixed phases of austenite, martensite, and R-phase; Spring H files consisted of martensite; and Spring Endo files consisted of austenite.
