ProTaper Gold is based on the ProTaper Universal system providing the same trusted performance and familiar efficiency with an advanced GOLD metallurgy that allows greater flexibility and increased resistance to cyclic fatigue. It is an efficient solution for endo practitioners seeking a flexible system that will smoothly and predictably go down the canal and will handle the vast majority of root canal treatments.
According to Dentsply Sirona, '(The) ProTaper Gold provides more than twice the resistance to cyclic fatigue as ProTaper Universal. And that's an important advantage since cyclic fatigue is the leading cause of file separation.'
ProTaper Gold shaping files are designed to be used with the same familiar outstroke brushing technique and the finishing files are more flexible so you can shape and finish each canal with a complete system approach.
