What is an 16:1 endo motor?

16:1 endo motors are devices that are used in rotary endodontic procedures where dentists have to use only one file to shape the root canal appropriately. 

 

The 16:1 endo motor combines the irrelevant concepts of electrostriction, ultrasonic vibration, and wave principle with the motor to create a completely new type of motor, which is a comprehensive multi-disciplinary intelligent product. So, what are the advantages of 16:1 endo motors?

Advantages of 16:1 endo motor:

1. Higher positioning accuracy

2. More compact size

3. Low heat generation and high energy efficiency

4. Higher output torque/mass ratio

5. Due to the difference in essential principles, it does not have a strong magnetic field and is suitable for some applications sensitive to magnetic interference.

How do I choose an 16:1 endo motor?

A much more preferable parameter would be the use of a specific ideal (right) torque. So choose an 16:1 endo motor that offers great flexibility when it comes to speed and torque settings, as different file systems have different ideal torque values. 

There are multiple types of 16:1 endo motors with varied specifications. This allows the dentist to prepare the endodontic canals with improved speed and convenience.

So, before you buy an 16:1 endo motor, do look for the speed and torque control. You can contact CICADA to get more detail about the 16:1 endo motor.
