According to Brasseler, the files’ controlled memory technology allows the files to be precurved yet highly resistant to cyclic fatigue.
Brasseler USA has introduced KontrolFlex NiTi rotary files. Equipped with Brasseler USA’s patented new Controlled Memory technology, KontrolFlex NiTi rotary files are the ideal choice for challenging curved canals as well as hard-to-reach areas of the tooth due to calcification.

Brasseler’s new and innovative controlled memory technology strengthens the properties of KontrolFlex to allow the files to be precurved yet highly resistant to cyclic fatigue, unlike other controlled memory files on the market that can experience a drastic reduction in cutting efficiency as a result of softened metal. Designed with several performance-enhancing features, KontrolFlex strikes a balance between cutting efficiency and safety for a precise yet minimally invasive performance.
“The KontrolFlex file was initially developed to meet the needs of endodontic specialists who encounter extremely difficult curved and calcified cases,” remarked Mike McLaughlin, national manager–endodontics at Brasseler USA. “We are very pleased to offer a flexible and durable file that can not only be used as a stand-alone shaping system but can also be implemented as an adjunct file for difficult clinical situations such as extreme curvatures of the canals, calcified cases, or hard-to-reach areas.”
As with all Brasseler USA rotary files, all KontrolFlex file surfaces are treated with Brasseler’s exclusive proprietary electropolished finish. The electropolished treatment further improves resistance to cyclic and torsional fatigue often associated with the long-term use of dental rotary files.
In addition, an extensive range of tip sizes and tapers are available that enable dental professionals to quickly incorporate KontrolFlex files to best meet individual treatment requirements.
