The Taper Has Been Edge-ified
Unmatched Flexibility
Heat-treated FireWire™ NiTi gives amazing flexibility, capable of 90° curves.
No Bounce Back
FireWire™ NiTi doesn’t bounce back to preserve apical anatomy
Incredible Strength
Twice the cyclic fatigue as Protaper Gold® and six times that of ProTaper®.
The new standard… now at half the cost.
The EdgeTaper Platinum™ and the EdgeTaper™ are available in 21mm, 25mm, 31mm lengths and are to be used in the same way, using the same technique as ProTaper® and ProTaper Gold®. This familiar sequence will ensure the switch to EdgeTaper Platinum™ or EdgeTaper™ will be seamless.
EdgeTaper Platinum™ features our heat-treated Firewire™ NiTi and tests at twice the cyclic fatigue as ProTaper Gold® and 6 times the cyclic fatigue as ProTaper®. Experience the new standard in file safety and canal centering ability – at half the price!

Cyclical fatigue test was performed using a custom test system with each file rotated at 500 RPM while 3mm of the file tip was inserted in a test block with a 90° curvature. Time to failure (seconds) was measured for each instrument.
