Gates Glidden drills are essential endodontic instruments used to enlarge the coronal portion of root canals, providing better access to the canal and making the preparation process smoother. Used by both endodontists and general dentists, these stainless steel instruments feature a blunt, non-cutting tip and a flame-shaped cutting head that helps efficiently remove dentin. Compatible with any right-angle latch handpiece, Gates Glidden drills are designed to improve visibility and instrument alignment while minimizing the risk of file separation.
Available in six standard sizes (typically numbered #1 to #6), these drills are ISO color-coded to indicate cutting diameter, allowing clinicians to work sequentially for optimal results. Common lengths include 28 mm (short) and 32 mm (standard).
