Study Overview

Brief Summary

For themorphologically challenging primary root canals, pulpectomy serves as goldstandard therapeutic treatment. Manual hand files has various limitationssuch as time consuming and occurrence of iatrogenic errors. Rotary filesexclusively for primary tooth were  introduced in India through KEDO Rotary files. Though the dual rotary file systems arehighly successful, the recently introduced single rotary file systems posses abetter features and quality than the former. Among the single rotary files, two different generations are introduced whose clinical efficiency has never been evaluated and we aim to find the better file among the Two generations of single rotary files
