Step 1: Access Preparation
Create proper access to the root canal and ensure straight-line entry to the obturated canal.
Step 2: Canal Inspection
Inspect the canal and confirm the presence of gutta-percha or other filling materials to be removed.
Step 3: Initial Penetration
Introduce the D1 file into the canal using a rotary endodontic motor at the recommended speed and torque.
Step 4: Coronal Filling Removal
Use a gentle in-and-out brushing motion to remove filling material from the coronal third of the canal.
Step 5: Irrigation
Irrigate the canal frequently with sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) to flush out debris and softened obturation material.
Step 6: Cleaning and Inspection
Withdraw the file periodically to clean the flutes and inspect for remaining filling material.
Step 7: Continue Retreatment Sequence
After coronal removal with D1, proceed with D2 and D3 files from the Dentsply ProTaper Universal Retreatment System to clean the middle and apical thirds of the canal.
