Collection: Endodontics - Gates Glidden Drills

Gates Glidden drills are used in root canal treatments to widen the coronal portion of the canal, creating a straight-line path for further instrumentation. Their flame-shaped, non-cutting tips allow controlled dentin removal without damaging the canal’s natural shape. This ensures smoother file movement, reducing stress on hand and rotary files and minimizing procedural errors. They are made from durable stainless steel, these drills offer strength, flexibility, and precise cutting action, making them reliable for efficient canal shaping. They help in step-back techniques, post-space preparation, and retreatments by quickly removing dentin while preserving as much tooth structure as possible. These drills are available in different sizes, Gates Glidden drills enhance access, improve visibility, and optimize workflow during endodontic procedures. Their controlled cutting mechanism reduces procedural time while ensuring thorough canal preparation. These drills remain a valuable tool for achieving successful root canal treatments.
