Summary:The small endodontic files used for this purpose often buckle and becomes less potent to reach the apical end. [...]buckling resistance is an important mechanical property of an endodontic instrument used for canal negotiation ensuring success. [...]the aim of this study is to evaluate the buckling resistance of D finder files, K-files, Dontics k-files, M access k-files, Micromega k-files and C+ files. 2.Materials and Methods The following endodontic instruments were assessed in this study: D finder files Mani K files Dontics K files M access k-files Micromega K-files C+ files Airotor hand piece (NSK, Japan) BR 46 bur Aluminium metal plate Armamentarium/Equipment: Universal testing machine (Model no. unitest 10, acme, India.) Methodology: Study groups: [...]they are compared in this study. [...]the C+ file has a larger area and stronger core to resist buckling of the endodontic files.
