LA CHAUX-DE-FONDS, Switzerland: Because its XP-endo Finisher and XP-endo Finisher R are compatible with all rotary and reciprocating shaping solutions—regardless of manufacturer—Swiss company FKG Dentaire has renamed them. The two instruments are now called Finisher and Finisher R. No changes have been made to the files themselves.
Finisher and Finisher R are mechanical instruments for enhanced root canal cleaning and disinfection. The instruments gently abrade canal walls and dislodge debris in difficult-to-reach areas with their non-cutting tips. Whereas Finisher is recommended for use in initial treatment, Finisher R is made for retreatment.
Finisher and Finisher R have excellent resistance to cyclic fatigue1 and leave walls cleaner than other file systems do. Finisher achieves up to 98% bacteria reduction in the main canal space. In retreatment, Finisher R is up to two times more effective than passive ultrasonic irrigation in removing remaining root filling material.
