TrueTooth #9 - Accessed and Shaped
All of our 3d printed TrueJaw and TrueTooth products, along with our file retrieval and hand instruments are now sold through PlanB Dental. Please visit www.planbdental.com to learn more and to purchase.
TrueTooth #9-001-AS (aka the "Thrill of the Fill") is a maxillary central incisor that comes with a pre-cut access cavity and canal cut with a 30.08 GTX File (coronal enlargement limited to 1 mm). Â
Use TrueTooth #9-001-AS to practice negotiation of apical accessory canals and 3D obturation skills, as the access cavity and pre-shaped canal allow fill after fill if necessary--thus significantly shortening the time necessary to master these skills. The apical bifurcating accessory canal and the mid-root lateral canal offers an irrigation challenges, as well as a test on 3D obturation.
Sold in a pack of 5.

TrueTooth 3D printed teeth are the exact reproduction of internal and external anatomy of extracted teeth. TrueTooth teeth are created with special heat-resistant polymer, and proudly 3D printed in the USA. Special handling is necessary to realize the maximum benefits of using TrueTooth.
Access:
- Use handpieces at 1,000 RPM with no torque limit.
- Ultrasonics are not ideal, but work best when used wet.
Negotiation:
- Negotiate as normal using a lubricant.
Shaping:
- Use handpieces at normal RPM and torque settings.
Irrigation:
- Irrigate as normal using NaOCl in a syringe with a side-vent needle. TrueTooth canal tissue will dissolve after 40 minutes of irrigation, similar to vital teeth.
Obturation:
- Continuous Wave or other heated obturation techniques: use heat pluggers at 175 degrees Celsius.
- Carrier-based obturation: obturate as normal.
Radiographs:
- Use the shortest exposure time and the lowest KVP. After radiographing, lighten and sharpen image on screen for optimum viewing.
Helpful Tip:
- Use alcohol on outer surface of TrueTooth during procedure for optimum visibility. Alcohol can be used in place of NaOCl.
