Increased flexibility
• Each instrument produces its own 'crown down effect' as larger tapers make way for smaller tapers.
• Protaper files engage a smaller area of dentine reducing torsional loads and file fatigue

Explore our infographic on 'Essential Metrics for Palliative Care Management' which highlights key performance indicators crucial for enhancing the quality and efficiency of palliative care services.
This visual guide breaks down important metrics across four categories: Patient-Centered Metrics, Care Efficiency Metrics, Quality of Life Metrics, and Staff Metrics. Each section is designed to help healthcare professionals monitor and improve care delivery for patients facing serious illnesses. Understand how to implement these metrics in your palliative care practices for better outcomes and higher satisfaction levels.
The dimensions of healthcare quality refer to various attributes or aspects that define the standard of healthcare services. These dimensions are used to evaluate, measure, and improve the quality of care provided to patients. A comprehensive understanding of these dimensions ensures that healthcare systems can address various aspects of patient care effectively and holistically. Dimensions of Healthcare Quality and Performance of care include the following; Appropriateness, Availability, Competence, Continuity, Effectiveness, Efficiency, Efficacy, Prevention, Respect and Care, Safety as well as Timeliness.

1. INSTRUMENTS USED IN ENDODONTIC TREATMENT
When the pulp suffers irreversible pulpitis, the only way to retain the natural tooth is by
complete removal of the pulp.

Function, features and precautions
•To enlarge the coronal third of the canal during endodontic treatment
• Small flame-shaped cutting instrument used in the conventional handpiece
• Different sizes – coded by rings or coloured bands on shank
•Are slightly flexible and will follow the canal shape but can perforate the canal if used
too deeply
• Dispose of in sharps’ container
• Should be used only in the straight sections of the canal
4. Name
Peeso reamer drills
Function, features and precautions
•To remove gutta percha during post preparation
