Journal: Brazilian Oral Research, 2018 Aug 13;32:e88. doi: 10.1590/1807-3107bor-2018.vol32.0088. PMID: 30110086.

Publication Date: August 2018

Products Used: Friendo™ and Gutta Easy™

 

Summary: This microCT study evaluated protocols for removing filling material from flattened or oval-shaped root canals. Friendo™ and Gutta Easy™ were used during the root canal filling procedure before retreatment testing. The study found that using the ClearSonic ultrasonic tip followed by Reciproc resulted in the lowest percentage of remaining filling material in the whole canal and apical third.

 

Result Highlight: Friendo™ and Gutta Easy™ were used in the obturation protocol for this endodontic retreatment study.

Product Used: Friendo™

 

Summary: This study measured plugger tip temperatures of cordless heat carriers set at 200°C, including Friendo™. The authors reported that plugger temperature was affected by both plugger taper and heat-carrier brand, and that clinicians should pay attention to temperature setting and activation time when using cordless heat carriers.

 

Result Highlight: Friendo™ was included in a comparative temperature study of cordless heat carriers, highlighting the importance of activation time and plugger selection.

FAQ

Charger has a burning smell

When different adapter is used, since the voltages are different, it will burn your unit. It is very crucial that you use our adapters for our products only. Please contact us immediately

Battery pins / Charger pins are corroded and will not charge

Pins corrode due to too much sterilization. Any liquid left from sterilization will cause corrosion. Make sure to have the unit dry after sterilization.

Friendo Pen is not turning on

This is the most common complaint that we receive from the customers.

Almost 98% cases are due to lack of charging.

Please keep the unit charged at ALL TIMES for longer battery lifespan.

Why does my Friendo Heating Condensation Pen stop heating after a few seconds?

The heating stops after 3 seconds and activates again after a short pause because we have upgraded our software to prevent any burns with longer heating cycle during the treatment for patient safety.

My Gutta Easy obturation gun shows “Er1” " Low". What does this mean?

“Er1” shows on LED display when the heater is in a bad contact with the PCB inside. Hold the Gutta-Easy Gun Body steady while rotating the heating end at least 360° to realign the PCB's contact with the heater.

If the device still displays "Er1", please request for an inspection. 

"Low" show on LED display when there is no battery, please charge the battery.

My Gutta Easy obturation gun does not turn on. What should I do?

If the gun was not charged, charge it, and try turning it on again.


Also, try the reset button on the bottom of the handpiece. Press the square button. Once pressed, it will click in. Leave it for few seconds and press it again. Unit will turn on. If it still doesn’t turn on, please request for an inspection.

Gutta percha pellet is stuck in my Gutta Easy obturation gun and does not work

Please request for an inspection. Our repair department would have to disassemble the unit and remove the pellet inside.


To prevent this from happening, please use 1 pellet at a time. Do not use 2. Once the pellet is inserted, insert the plunger pushing towards the mouth of the handpiece.


Also, make sure the plunger has the white o-ring (Teflon ring) in place. Without Telfon Ring, Gutta Percha Pellet can move incorrectly and get stuck inside device.
