Resumen
VAN DER VYVER, PJ; VORSTER, M; PALEKER, F y DE WET, FA. Glide path preparation in Endodontics: case report and a literature review of available materials and techniques. S. Afr. dent. j. [online]. 2019, vol.74, n.3, pp.129-136. ISSN 0375-1562. http://dx.doi.org/10.17159/2519-0105/2019/v74no3a5.
Maintaining a smooth, reproducible, glide path when successive files are used is an important characteristic of proper root canal preparation. Glide path enlargement allows for safer, more effective canal shaping with increased prospects of successful treatment outcomes. Many authors have proposed that rotary nickel titanium (NiTi) instruments should not be used for canal preparation without prior glide path preparation. In this paper the authors discuss a review of the literature on some of these glide path techniques and illustrate the correct clinical application of some of these preparation techniques through clinical case studies.
