Original EndoBender by Dr. L. Stephen Buchanan
The Original EndoBender was developed by Dr. L. Stephen Buchanan to assist in the precise bending of endodontic files used to negotiate very difficult and tortuous canal orifices. The EndoBender is a reusable surgical stainless steel instrument designed to impart controlled curvature to endodontic instruments prior to clinical use.
The unique design will easily engage the tip of small K-files and apply a small and prescribed bend to tip of the file that will be used to explore and engage difficult to find canals such as MB2 canals of upper molars. The pliers have two specially designed jaws that can bend a file to a precise and prescribed bend. The upper clamping jaw has a concave undersurface that matches the lower rounded anvil shaped jaw. So, when the thumb depresses the paddle of the plier to close, the jaws can automatically emboss or bend a file up to the very last flute.
The instrument is fully autoclavable for routine sterilization.
Each kit contains:
- 1 EndoBender
