Product catalog summary

Introduction
This document discusses the advantages of using Deppeler instruments with edge retention technology, focusing on their ability to be resharpened, which extends their usability and efficiency compared to non-resharpenable instruments.

Edge Retention Technology
Deppeler instruments can be resharpened, allowing them to maintain optimal sharpness and comfort even after extensive use. A study by Schmidlin et al. demonstrated that after 1000 strokes on dentin and five reprocessing cycles, all instruments lost about 75% of their effectiveness. However, resharpenable instruments like those from Deppeler can regain their cutting efficiency.

Benefits of Resharpenable Instruments

Flexibility: Resharpenable instruments are less likely to break in the patient's mouth.
Savings: These instruments need to be replaced less frequently, reducing long-term costs.
Sustainability: All-steel instruments are easier to recycle.
Efficiency: A bare steel edge is more efficient than a coated edge.

Sharpening Methods

Manual Sharpening: Maintain cutting edges without facets, serrated edges, or burrs using visual guidance for easy control of the sharpening angle. Suitable for all brands.
With a Coach: The Easy Sharp Coach includes two coaches (universal and Gracey) and Arkansas stones for regular and fine sharpening.
With a Machine: The Easy Sharp Device offers maximum precision and control, restoring the cutting edge to its original state. Suitable for Deppeler instruments.

Recommendations
It is recommended to resharpen instruments at least once every 5 to 8 treatments to maintain their effectiveness.
