Dentsply VDW C-Pilot Files are an essential tool in endodontic procedures, designed to facilitate the creation of a glide path for further root canal preparation. These files feature a durable stainless steel construction with a comfortable CC+ handle, ensuring optimal control and maneuverability during use. The C-Pilot Files are suitable for a wide range of canal sizes. The handle of each file is equipped with additional length markings, providing clear visual reference points for accurate depth control. One of the key features of the C-Pilot Files is the inactive pilot tip, which serves to safely guide the instrument along the canal without actively engaging the dentin. This feature minimizes the risk of unnecessary dentin removal or canal transportation, ensuring precise and controlled glide path preparation.

For added convenience, the C-Pilot Files come with pre-mounted silicone stoppers, allowing for consistent and reliable working length determination. Each blister pack contains six sterile files, ensuring a hygienic and ready-to-use supply for endodontic procedures.

• Material: The files are constructed using durable stainless steel, ensuring high bending strength and resistance to deformation.
• Handle: The files feature a comfortable CC+ handle, which provides optimal control and maneuverability during use.
• Glide Path Creation: The C-Pilot Files enable the creation of a smooth glide path before rotary preparation, facilitating further root canal treatment.
• Size Range: The files are suitable for a wide range of canal sizes, accommodating various anatomical variations.
• Length Markings: Each file handle is equipped with additional length markings, allowing for clear visual reference points and accurate depth control during instrumentation.
• Radiopaque Depth Marks: The files have radiopaque depth marks, making them visible on X-ray images and aiding in precise working length determination.
• Inactive Pilot Tip: The files feature an inactive pilot tip that guides the instrument safely along the canal without actively engaging the dentin. This minimizes the risk of unnecessary dentin removal or canal transportation.
• Pre-Mounted Silicone Stoppers: The C-Pilot Files come with pre-mounted silicone stoppers, which provide consistent and reliable working length determination.

• Pack of 6 Files

• Prior to starting the procedure, ensure that you have selected the appropriate C-Pilot File size based on the canal anatomy and treatment plan.
• Prepare the tooth for endodontic treatment by providing adequate isolation and access to the root canal system.
• Begin the glide path creation by introducing the C-Pilot File into the canal orifice. Use a gentle in-and-out motion while applying light pressure.
• Allow the inactive pilot tip of the file to guide the instrument safely along the canal without actively engaging the dentin. This helps minimize the risk of unnecessary dentin removal or canal transportation.
• As you progress, periodically check the file’s depth using the additional length markings on the handle. These markings provide clear visual reference points for accurate depth control.
• Maintain a consistent working length by using the pre-mounted silicone stoppers. These stoppers allow for reliable determination of the desired working length.
• Continue using the C-Pilot File in a controlled and precise manner until the desired glide path is achieved. Ensure that the file moves smoothly and freely within the canal.
• Once the glide path is established, you can proceed with further root canal preparation using rotary instruments or other appropriate techniques.
