# EdgeTaper

 
The Taper Has Been Edge-ified
			
			
				
				
				
				
			
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
Unmatched Flexibility
Heat-treated FireWire™ NiTi gives amazing flexibility, capable of 90° curves.
			
			
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
Pre-bendable
Pre-bendable to preserve apical anatomy.
			
			
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
Incredible Strength
Twice the cyclic fatigue as Protaper Gold® and six times that of ProTaper®.
			
			
				
				
				
				
			
				
				
			
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				The new standard… now at up to half the cost.
The EdgeTaper Platinum™ and the EdgeTaper™ are available in 21mm, 25mm, 31mm lengths and are to be used in the same way, using the same technique as ProTaper® and ProTaper Gold®.  This familiar sequence will ensure the switch to EdgeTaper Platinum™ or EdgeTaper™ will be seamless.
EdgeTaper Platinum™ features our heat-treated Firewire™ NiTi and tests at twice the cyclic fatigue as ProTaper Gold® and 6 times the cyclic fatigue as ProTaper®. Experience the standard in file safety and canal centering ability.

				Cyclical fatigue test was performed using a custom test system with each file rotated at 500 RPM while 3mm of the file tip was inserted in a test block with a 90° curvature. Time to failure (seconds) was measured for each instrument.
