Patent number: 11957529Abstract: The endodontic point containing ultrasonic deformable material is a filler for root canal therapy that decreases in viscosity when subjected to ultrasonic waves. Once the point is inserted into a prepared tooth space, such as a prepared and cleaned root canal, the point is subjected to ultrasonic waves. The ultrasonic waves cause the viscosity of the point to lower, thus allowing the point to flow into voids in the tooth space and allow air to escape from the voids. The point then hardens and remains in the shape acquired when at low viscosity once application of the ultrasonic waves is stopped.Type: GrantFiled: December 21, 2020Date of Patent: April 16, 2024Assignee: KING SAUD UNIVERSITYInventor: Mohammed Abdullah Alshehri
