Why this case matters

S-curves test conceptual understanding before hand skill. The instrument must be free to follow anatomy in two opposing directions within millimetres.

Training outcomes

  • S-curve conceptual anatomy
  • WaveOne Gold / Reciproc Blue technique
  • Warm vertical compaction in complex canals

Common mistakes this model helps you avoid

  • Straightening the first curve into the second
  • Using constant-taper files in variable anatomy
  • Aggressive apical preparation that transports
  • Skipping recapitulation between files

Suggested training protocol

  1. Small-taper variable-apex NiTi (e.g. TruNatomy, WaveOne Gold Primary)
  2. Balanced-force hand technique as backup
  3. Abundant EDTA lubrication
  4. Recapitulate to patency with #10 after each shaping file
  5. Warm vertical obturation for adaptation

What a successful exercise looks like

  • Both curves visible on final film
  • No strip perforation at inflection point
  • Three-dimensional seal
