Why are endodontic instruments re-used? In a nutshell... to save costs. Material costs are indeed reduced by re-using endodontic instruments. If, however, the costs for singleuse instruments are compared to the additional costs arising from re-use, such as costs for instrument reprocessing, sterile storage and keeping proper records, the anticipated saving shrinks to a minimum that bears no relation to the possible drawbacks of multiple instrument use. Current discussions are focussing more and more on the topic of multiple-use. Looking at the mandatory quality management and the extended...

Infection Control and Quality Management sm. • 3in the Dental Practice Why has the multiple-use of endodontic instruments attracted so much attention lately? Current recommendations by the Robert Koch Institute (RKI) dating from 2001 and 2006 (on “Infection Control Requirements for Re-processing Medical Devices; Infection Prevention in Dentistry - Infection Control Requirements1’2”) classify endodontic instruments as critical B. This means that stricter requirements apply to the re-processing of such instruments. Only clean medical devices can be efficiently sterilised, which means that...

Pre-Cleaning, Disinfection, Cleaning and Sterilisation of Endodontic Instruments As a basic principle, instruments should be cleaned and disinfected mechanically (disinfector/WD) rather than manually. Manual procedures, even in combination with an ultrasonic bath, should only be used in cases where mechanical methods are not available, as they are considerably less efficient and their results are not as consistent. Irrespective of whether a mechanical or manual procedure is carried out, all instruments need to be pre-cleaned.7 Let’s take a closer look at the (most commonly applied) cleaning...

Based on the aforementioned facts, single-use of ready to use, industrially cleaned and pre-sterilised endodontic instruments is recommended. For the following reasons: • Protection of patient, practitioner and practice personnel • Supports fulfilment of all legal requirements, guidelines and recommendations • Safety in case of potential legal disputes • Simplified workflow in the dental practice with regard to quality management measures and infection control requirements Since the 1980s, VDW has been manufacturing and distributing sterile endodontic instruments in many countries around...
