Extremely Effective Safe Relax Remover for Removal of Crowns and Metal Cores

When performing root canal retreatment, the dentist is faced with the task of removing the crown or core, which is an artificial object that blocks the above of the root canal. If the dentist fails to remove the crown or metalcore, especially if it is a metal restoration, it will be difficult to perform the re-root canal treatment, and happen the tooth fracture and have to be extracted. For dentists, this is a very stressful job with a lot of responsibility. Few doctors like removal.

In other countries, I have heard that root canal retreatment is not favored due to its low clinical success rate, but in Japan, root canal retreatment is not uncommon. I think it is a national trait, but there are a lot of patients who want to preserve their teeth, and dentists also prefer preservative treatment. There is also the economic reason that the cost of root canal treatment is extremely low. 

In any case, for Japanese dentists, root canal retreatment is not an uncommon task in their daily clinical practice. What is the same with overseas dentists is that the removal of crowns and metal cores is an unpleasant job. Especially the metal core with a long post is depressing just to see it on the radiograph, aren’t you?

The Safe Relax Remover is what I use to remove crowns or metal cores. This is not the only tool that can be used for any removal cases, but there are always situations where it is effective, so it is a good idea to prepare for it in your office. 

The claw is hooked into the gap between the tooth and the restoration (crown or metalcore) to be removed, and when the device is operational, short mechanical strokes are automatically applied for removal. The patient is received strong vibration and shock, but if the restoration is in a condition to be removed, it can be successfully removed in a very short time. 


As you can see in the video, even post-cores can be removed in a very short time. The key to success is to be able to operate this remover with the nail in place. If you cannot provide a place to hook the nail, this remover is not suitable. In that case, switch to another method of removal.

I think it's a great device because when it works, it only takes a few seconds to remove!

I purchased this remover from an online retailer several years ago. Perhaps it can still be purchased today.

The Sealer-Puff After the Root Canal Obturation, the Relationship Between Root Canal Irrigation

  The sealer-puff is a characteristic appearance of sealer overflow outside the apical foramen on the confirmatory dental photograph after root canal filling.  This is caused by a small amount of sealer overflowing outside the apical foramen when the dentists pressurize the area around the apical constriction to achieve a tight root canal filling. It is also caused by sealer penetrating the lateral branches of the apical-delta due to pressure at the apex. The sealer puff is, after all, an overflow of foreign material into the periapical tissue of the root apex. Of course, dentists must always try to prevent foreign material to overflow from the root apex into the apical periapical tissue. However, if we take into account the cause of sealer puffs, we can evaluate them from a different perspective. Sealer puffs are... The area around the root apex is properly cleaned and free of debris, ensuring the patency of the root canal. And Be caused by the application of a good flow of s...

The Agitation for Root Canal Irrigation

 An important aspect of root canal cleaning is just disinfection, especially at the root apex. This consists of removal of the smear layer of the dentinal wall and disinfection with sodium hypochlorite solution in the apical delta. Normally, dentists perform positive pressure irrigation using a syringe for root canal irrigation. They use saline solution, hydrogen peroxide solution, EDTA, or sodium hypochlorite solution as the cleaning solution. If the needle is thin enough to rinse deep into the root canal, dentists will usually feel that can clean the root canal. However, the reality is that the cleaning is not satisfactory. This is because only positive pressure irrigation makes it difficult to exert the chemical action of the irrigants. In particular, a narrow path such as the apical delta is difficult for the cleaning solution to reach. Therefore, it will be necessary to use some other method in addition to positive pressure washing. The agitation of root canal irrigation is. T...

Let's Consider Root Canal Irrigation

In my opinion, an extremely important step in root canal treatment is root canal irrigation. Cleaning the inside of the root canal is a more difficult procedure than the dentist may think and, in practice, often results in inadequate cleaning. Root canal irrigation is not as simple as simply placing fluid into the root canal. As the name "irrigation" implies, it is the act of physically and chemically removing the dirt inside the root canal using a cleaning solution - some kind of liquid. The root apex is the most important area of the root canal where cleaning is required.  In root canal treatment, aseptic preparation of the root canal by the dentist can prevent apical periodontitis. Once the root canal has been ideally enlarged with a NiTi file, it must then be thoroughly cleaned; if there is debris, it should be physically flushed out, and if there is inorganic or organic residue, it must be chemically cleaned. In addition, the root canal must be perforated and patency mus...
