Shake Up Your Idea of Clean: SmartLite Pro EndoActivator™ Endodontic Activation System
Dentsply Sirona introduces the SmartLite Pro EndoActivator, an equipment solution designed for intracanal activation of irrigating fluids used for cleaning and disinfecting root canals. Designed for multi-directional movement, the SmartLite Pro EndoActivator uses elliptical motion and increased energy for effective irrigant activation.

Charlotte. After shaping, ~35% or more of canal surfaces are left untouched, yet the long-term success of endodontic procedures depends on a clean canal.1 With SmartLite Pro EndoActivator, Dentsply Sirona is introducing an endodontic equipment solution that is easy to use and incorporate into dental clinicians’ current root canal procedure workflow.
Activating irrigants can help produce a surface with more opened dentinal tubules, allowing for better obturation of lateral and accessory canals. “Following the SmartLite Pro EndoActivator protocol provides more than 38% increased cleaning efficacy versus sodium hypochlorite soak without activation.”2
SmartLite Pro EndoActivator Tips are available in three sizes, including a new Medium Long tip to better support longer file lengths. SmartLite Pro EndoActivator Tips are flexible, non-cutting medical grade plastic tips which provide no ledging, transportation, enlargement or shaping of the canal.
“SmartLite Pro EndoActivator moves fluids much more efficiently. When you´re looking through a microscope, you can literally see the difference in the cleanliness of the fluids that are coming out of the equipment. It´s just loaded with debris. So if you just think of this as turning on your washing machine, it does so much more in 30 seconds than you can do just sitting there soaking,” says Dr. Michael W. Nimmich, DMD, MS (US).
Dentsply Sirona endodontic treatment solutions are tailored to dentists’ needs and offer advanced, comprehensive endodontic care for patients. SmartLite Pro EndoActivator is capable of effectively activating irrigants in ProTaper Ultimate™, WaveOne® Gold and TruNatomy™ shaped canals.
“Dentsply Sirona not only provides product solutions – we give endodontists unshakeable confidence,” says Greg Sheehan, Vice President Global Endodontics at Dentsply Sirona. “From shaping, cleaning to obturation, our signature workflows provide the safety and efficiency clinicians require and expect for any successful endo procedure.”
SmartLite Pro EndoActivator is available in the US as of now.
