CA 2399359

The invention generally provides flocked files for debriding root canals during endodontic procedures. The flocked files comprise a shank with a periphery surface and fibers that are flocked or otherwise attached to the periphery surface. The periphery surface comprises at least one flocked surface segment over which the fibers are dispersed and may include at least one abrading surface segment that is suitable for abrading or scraping the walls of the root canal. The fibers may be composed of various materials and may comprise various textures, Deniers, lengths, and flexibility. The fibers abrade and loosen potential irritants in the root canal architecture, including the recessed regions and the accessory canals, without requiring unnecessary reshaping and removal of dentin from the root canal. The fibers also capture and carry loosened debris out from the root canal.
