If the indication of file position is unsteady during the procedure, here are a few things to consider: * Ensure good contact between the lip clip and the oral mucosa by placing the lip clip in the labial angle opposite the tooth being treated. * Clean the connection hook with Ethanol. * Block any external conductive paths if deep caries are present. * If there is a perforation, remove the file, close the perforation, and carefully repeat the apex detection procedure, re-inserting the file into the canal. * If a large lateral canal is present, try gently advancing the file to continue the procedure.
