Developed and produced in Switzerland, IrriFlex is the game changer that is revolutionizing the field of root canal irrigation.
Flexibility
Unlike conventional metal needles, IrriFlex® easily adapts to complex root canal anatomies. The flexibility of the polypropylene body allows the needle to access the apical region without resistance or damage to the dentinal walls.
Effectiveness
IrriFlex® has two side vents at the tip, located back-to-back. This unique characteristic gives balanced irrigant expulsion, via two accurate jets, oriented directly to the dentinal walls.
The tapered shape of the needle adapts to the shape of the canal. Flow thickness of the irrigant is therefore constant as the fluid moves to the coronal area, which maximises shear forces and the elimination of debris, smear layer and biofilm.
IrriFlex® needles are manufactured in Switzerland. They are produced in a clean room, and packaged individually.
Technical Properties
Compatible with EDTA 17%, Hypochlorite 5.25%, Chlorhexidine 2%, Citric acid 40%.
Irrigation is an important aspect of root canal treatment, and easy diffusion of the irrigant inside the root canal is essential. Effortless movement along the curved root canal walls and accuracy when placing the irrigation needle at the working length, simplifie the procedure and allow the practitioner to focus fully on irrigant diffusion. Removing the smear layer and biofilm, and disinfecting the root canal before final obturation are key. Welcome to the “Glide-cleaning” revolution.
Testimonials
Dr. Riccardo Tonini
“Irriflex® is a new standard in root canal irrigation. The sensation of secure and smooth tip insertion, flow control and the increased visibility are the benefits I observe in my daily practice. After having used Irriflex for the first time, I realized this needle is a true milestone in endodontics, comparable to the transition from stainless steel to nitinol in root canal shaping.”
Dr. Uwe Radmacher
“IrriFlex® has revolutionized root canal irrigation and has become a fundamental part of my protocol.”
Dr. Shanon Patel
“Elegant, innovative and beautifully designed, IrriFlex® ensures safe and efficient delivery of the irrigant to a millimeter of the working length.”
Dr. Pierre Machtou
University Professor & Clinic practitioner
“IrriFlex® offers the advantage of being able to be inserted very deeply into the most curved root canals without risk of extrusion into the periapex. Mounted on a 5 ml Luer-lock syringe, the orientation of the lateral openings was on the same plane at 0.5 mm from its end creates shear forces useful for eliminating the smear layer and disrupting the bacterial biofilms of the root walls .”
Dr. Pio Bertani
“There is certainly agreement that irrigation during endodontic treatment is a key moment. With Irriflex®, it becomes easier because its flexibility allows to access more deeply in the canal even overcoming important curvatures. Having marks of depth allows more conscious and more complete irrigation.”
Dr. Massimo Giovarruscio
“All endodontists know the importance of irrigation and how relevant it is to perform it correctly. Thanks to IrriFlex® and its innovative design, I feel much secure when I irrigate a root canal system, especially a wide canal and teeth with an open apex. The irrigation of chamber floor perforations is also more secure. I am no longer worried about irrigation accidents.”
Prof. Matthias Zehnder
“These tips have made irrigation of the apical root canal system easier and more efficient.”
