Dentsply WaveOne Gold Paper Points are essential dental materials used in endodontic procedures, specifically during root canal treatments. These paper points are designed to facilitate the drying and disinfection of the root canal system after the removal of infected pulp. WaveOne Gold provides a comprehensive treatment solution and optimizes predictable and successful outcomes.

• ISO Color- Coded
• Refills and Assortments available

Dedicated WaveOne Gold obturators, paper points, and precision machined variable tapered gutta-percha points are available.

• Material: WaveOne Gold Paper Points are made from highly absorbent, medical-grade paper. The paper material ensures excellent absorption of fluids from the root canal, allowing for effective drying and disinfection.
• Tapered Design: The paper points have a tapered design, which means they have a gradually decreasing diameter from the tip to the base. This design allows for easy insertion into the root canal and helps to achieve optimal adaptation to the canal walls, ensuring thorough cleaning and drying.
• Sizes: WaveOne Gold Paper Points are available in various sizes to accommodate different root canal dimensions. The sizes typically range from 15 to 40, indicating the tip diameter in hundredths of millimeters. The dentist selects the appropriate size based on the specific tooth and canal anatomy.
• Compatibility: These paper points are specifically designed for use with the Dentsply WaveOne Gold reciprocating file system, which is a popular choice among dentists for root canal procedures. The reciprocating motion of the file system complements the properties of the paper points, enhancing their effectiveness in drying and disinfection.
• Sterilization: Dentsply WaveOne Gold Paper Points come sterilized and individually packaged to ensure their safety and hygiene. The sterile packaging maintains their integrity and prevents contamination.
• Identification: Each paper point is color-coded for easy identification. The color coding corresponds to the specific size of the paper point, allowing dentists to quickly select the appropriate size during procedures.

• Preparation: Before using the paper points, ensure that the root canal treatment is in progress and the infected pulp has been removed. The canal should be cleaned and shaped using appropriate files and irrigation solutions.
• Selection of Paper Point Size: Choose the appropriate size of the paper point based on the dimensions of the root canal. Refer to the color-coded system for easy identification of the desired size.
• Sterility: Confirm that the packaging of the paper points is intact and the individual paper points are sterile. Do not use any paper point if the packaging is damaged or compromised.
• Insertion: Using a pair of sterile tweezers or an appropriate delivery instrument, carefully insert the paper point into the root canal. Ensure that the paper point reaches the desired length without forcing it excessively. The tapered design of the paper point aids in easy insertion.
• Absorption: Allow the paper point to remain in the canal for a short period, usually around 1 to 2 minutes. The highly absorbent paper material will soak up any residual moisture and disinfectant solutions present in the canal, aiding in drying the root canal system.
• Removal: Gently remove the paper point from the canal using the same instrument or tweezers. Take care not to push the paper point deeper or leave any remnants behind.
• Disposal: After use, discard the paper point appropriately according to the recommended waste disposal guidelines for medical materials.
• Follow-up Procedures: Depending on the specific treatment plan, further steps such as obturation (filling) of the root canal may be required. Consult with the dentist or endodontist regarding the subsequent procedures after the use of paper points.
