Mani Silk Instruction Card1. Estimate the true working length (TWL) from the initial diagnostic radiographs.2. Prepare straight-line access. 3. Remove the Cervical Dentinal Triangle (CDT) & shape the coronal third.

The orifice opener is used with a brushing motion against the root wall of great-est thickness to remove the CDT (if present) and to shape the coronal third.

4. Establish and/or confirm apical patency. Mani D Finder hand files are pre-curved and used to negotiate the canal to the apex and achieve apical patency. Once apical patency is determined and/or the clinician reaches the estimated working length (determined from #1 above), an electronic apex locator can be used to determine the true working length.

5. Prepare a glide path.The Mani hand files of choice (D Finders, K-files, SEC O K Files—safe ended hand files) are then used to prepare a glide path to the true working length. A glide path has been prepared when a #20 hand K-file spins freely at the apex.

6. Prepare the Canal.Using Mani Silk, the canal is generally prepared from a smaller tip size to larger using the tactile recommendations and suggested motor settings (500rpm / 300g-cm). Mani Silk is used in a three second continuous and controlled passive insertion to resistance and removed. The canal is irrigated and recapitulated with a small hand file and the next Mani Silk file in the sequence is inserted in the same manner.

STANDARD PACK 1 .08/25 for Orifice Shaping. 2 .06/20 for Intermediate Shaping. 3 .06/25 for Apical Shaping (True Working Length). COMPLEX PACK 1 .08/25 for Orifice Shaping. 2 .04/20 for Intermediate Shaping. 3 .04/25 for Apical Shaping (True Working Length).

7. Additional Preparation of the master apical diameter.If the clinician wishes to prepare a larger master apical diameter, they can do so by whatever means desired. Additional Mani Silk files are available in sizes .04/30, .04/35, .04/40, .06/35, .06/40.
