Lightspeed Technology Inc. combined science, engineering and research in developing LIGHTSPEED, the endodontic instrument for the new millennium.  LIGHTSPEED is not just another root canal instrument.  It is different, exciting, and long overdue.  Made of nickel titanium and used in a low speed handpiece, LIGHTSPEED is the instrument you have been waiting for.  It makes the difficult world of clinical endodontics much easier. 

• LIGHTSPEED's very short cutting blade provides more accurate tactile feedback which helps determine when the canal has been properly cleaned. Tapered instruments leave you guessing.
  
  
• LIGHTSPEED's design allows you to safely enlarge the apical part of the canal to larger sizes as dictated by the original canal diameter.  This reduces the possibility of leaving necrotic or vital tissue in the canal and makes for easier obturation.
  
  
• LIGHTSPEED's taperless shaft gives it more flexibility than others.   This flexibility keeps it centered, virtually eliminating ledging, zipping and perforating the canal.
   

• LIGHTSPEED instrumentation is conservative.  It removes sufficient dentin to clean and shape without over-enlarging the canal and weakening the root.  This approach reduces the risk of future root fracture.
  
  
• When used correctly, the risk of instrument separation is quite low.  If a LIGHTSPEED does separate, it is designed to separate 18mm from the tip, making retrieval fast and easy.  Also, its thin shaft and short cutting blade give you a very good chance of removing or bypassing the fragment should separation occur closer to the tip.
  
   
• LIGHTSPEED's short cutting blade and noncutting shaft minimize torque and stress on the instrument.  This allows the instrument to be used many times, making it quite cost effective.
