Chameleon Pro-Flexi Files

Heat-activated nickel-titanium (NiTi) endodontic files used for root canal cleaning and shaping. The Chameleon Pro-Flexi Files (Denco, nickel-titanium heat-activated) demonstrated excellent performance during root canal retreatment:

Key Features:

• Heat-activated NiTi design enabled efficient negotiation of narrow, missed canals (especially MB2 and BD), reducing canal transportation risk.
• Variable taper options (0.4, 0.6) and size range (#10–#50) allowed precise shaping of different canal anatomies (coronal third, MB1/MB2/BD canals, palatal canal).
• Smooth file progression minimized procedural errors, supporting thorough cleaning—critical for resolving chronic periapical abscess from failed initial root canal.

Usage in Case Study:

• Step 1 (Coronal Third Preparation): Chameleon Pro-Flexi Files (0.1 taper, 0.9 size) at 19mm working length to shape the coronal third.
• Step 2 (MB1, MB2, and BD Canals Preparation): Chameleon Pro-Flexi Files (0.4 taper) used at 25mm working length, sized from #10 to #35.
• Step 3 (Palatal Canal Preparation): Chameleon Pro-Flexi Files (0.6 taper) used at 25mm working length, sized up to #50.
