dc.description.abstract	The efficacy of root canal preparation is considerably enhanced when an effort is made to provide an effective glide path. In addition the risk of undesirable fractures of instruments is reduced. The introduction of techniques and instruments specifically directed at the preparation of a glide path have facilitated root canal shaping and provide a variety from which the clinician may choose, guided by the relevant design features and performance characteristics.	en_US
