Instrumentation in Root Canal Treatment | خطوات التحضير الميكانيكي لحشو العصب

In this video, Dr. Gamal Elsrogy explains the Instrumentation Steps in Root Canal Treatment (Hashem Asim method) in a simple, practical, and clinical way. You’ll learn how to prepare the canal efficiently, maintain its anatomy, and achieve perfect shaping for irrigation and obturation. 🔹 Topics covered: • Access cavity and working length determination • Glide path and preflaring • Shaping with rotary files (sequence and taper) • Irrigation during instrumentation • Common mistakes and how to avoid ledge, transportation, or blockage 🎯 Perfect for dental students and general dentists who want to improve their endodontic skills. 📍Follow Dr. Gamal Elsrogy for more practical root canal tips and workshops. ⸻ 🧠 Script / Text (you can say in the video): English: Today, we’ll talk about the steps of instrumentation in root canal treatment using Hashem Asim’s protocol. Step 1: After proper access cavity preparation and working length determination, we start with glide path creation using small hand files like #10 or #15 K-file. Step 2: Once the canal is patent and smooth, we begin preflaring with rotary files to open the coronal part and reduce stress on the main instruments. Step 3: Then, we perform shaping with our selected rotary system — usually starting with smaller taper files and moving gradually to the final shaping file. Step 4: Throughout the process, irrigation is key — always irrigate between files to remove debris and avoid blockage or ledge formation. Step 5: Finally, check the canal shape, confirm the working length, and make sure the canal is clean and ready for obturation. Remember, instrumentation is not just about cutting dentin — it’s about respecting the canal anatomy and preparing a biological space for disinfection and sealing.
