Endodontic Solutions THE NEW NiTi FILE GENERATION HyFlex™ Pre-Op Post-Op The best feature of the Hyflex files is a unique metallurgy that allows them to pre-bend prior to inserting into canal orifices. This hand-file like pre-curvability in combination with flexibility and safety of NiTi file are very handy for most clinical scenarios, especially where access to the canal orifices is challenging (and keeps access cavity conservative). Also, it is nice that you do get some advanced warning that you are over stressing the files when you see it unwind first (instead of sudden fracture). I have noted that Hyflex files tend to maintain the canal curvatures very well without straightening the walls. The radiograph depicted well-preserved moderate curvatures of the root canal system in the tooth 17 following shaping procedure. Further, the whole procedure could be performed through a relatively conservative access cavity.
