1.2. Proper Usage
The EndoPilot is an „all-in-one“ device concept for the mechanical root canal treatment.
It is exclusively determined for the usage in dentistry and may not be combined with other devices.
The EndoPilot was especially designed for the endodontic. The EndoSystem is intended for the following usage only:
1.2.1. Apexlocator
By the Apexlocator, the file position in the root canal is determined. This length determination can either be done
manually by using the file clamp (without motor) or parallel to the preparation of the root canal (integrated length
determination with motor).
1.2.2. Motor
Mechanical root canal preparation in combination with the preprogrammed nickel-titanium files with standard settings,
with optional integrated length determination. Basically, the actual parameters of the manufacturer files should be used.
1.2.3. DownPack-Handpiece with Heating Tip
Vertical thermoplastic condensation of Guttapercha in the root canal as well as cutting off of Guttapercha sticks.
1.2.4. BackFill Gun
Final thermoplastic filling of root canals with Guttapercha.
1.2.5. Ultrasonic Handpiece *
*CoPilot: The CoPilot was developed as supplementary module for the EndoPilot. It provides the ultrasonic function for
the execution of professional endodontic treatments.
Possible scope of application: Activation of a rinsing solution in the root canal, revisions, preparations of the canal with
ultrasonic instruments and removal of pins.
In addition, the device is equipped with a battery and a wireless foot switch.
1.3. General Precautions
Please read the operation manual precisely and completely! This is the only way to assure a maximum of security. Most
of the problems in operating and maintenance result from the insufficient attention being paid to basic safety precautions
and the fact that the possibility of accidents is not foreseen.
The user and his team have to be familiar with the device prior to the first usage.
Always use a cofferdam to prevent inhalation or swallowing of small parts!
If you have any questions or note any problems, please contact your supplier immediately.
Do not use the device if your patient or you are having an active implant (pacemaker, etc.)!
*CoPilot: Use safety goggles. Aerosols and germs may be released when using ultrasonic, therefore, please always use
a mask.
1.3.1. Contra-Indications
Using Guttapercha in combination with the Backfill function on patients with a known allergy to latex, silver or copper may
result in allergic reactions. These reactions may cause irritations of eyes, lips and the face. They may also cause
breathing problems. Patients should be instructed to immediately indicate any complaints occurring.
