Say Goodbye to Discomfort: How transcodent™ Needles Enhance Patient Care 

In the world of endodontics, precision and safety are paramount. One of the key tools in an endodontist’s arsenal is the irrigation needle. These needles play a crucial role in root canal treatments, delivering irrigation solutions that clean and disinfect the root canal . However, the use of these needles is not without its challenges. 

The Problem with Traditional Irrigation Needles

Traditional dental needles can sometimes cause discomfort and complications during root canal treatments. This happens when cleaning solutions, such as sodium hypochlorite (NaOCI), are accidentally placed beyond the apical foramen. Such extrusions may cause severe periapical tissue trauma, leading to significant patient discomfort and treatment complications.  

Studies have shown that successful root canal treatment depends on thoroughly cleaning of the root canal to prevent future infection. Traditional methods using syringes and metal needles often fall short in achieving this.

transcodent Irrigation Needles

medmix has designed the transcodent irrigation needles with a specific focus on addressing key issues in patient care. The primary objective of these needles is to ensure for a painless and safe experience for the patient. German engineered with a high-quality thin-walled steel cannula, it offers superior flexibility. Additionally, they feature an improved flow rate and a larger inner diameter optimizing the flushing effect for effective and thorough irrigation of the full length of the root canal.

One of the key features of transcodent irrigation needles is their double side vents and closed rounded tip. This design minimizes the risk of needle extrusion beyond the apical foramen, ensuring that irrigation solutions remain within the root canal and do not harm periapical tissues.
