Effect of Different Downward Loads on Canal Centering Ability, Vertical Force, and Torque Generation during Nickel–Titanium Rotary Instrumentation

This study aimed to examine how downward loads influence the torque/force and shaping outcome of ProTaper NEXT (PTN) rotary instrumentation. PTN X1, X2, and X3 were used to prepare J-shaped resin canals employing a load-controlled automated instrumentation and torque/force measuring device. Dependin...
