Clinical Overview
The KiS‑3D is a diamond‑coated microsurgical ultrasonic tip engineered for precise root‑end and retrograde procedures. With its double‑angled 75° design and integrated irrigation port, it delivers enhanced cutting efficiency while minimizing microfracture risk and optimizing filling-material adaptation .
Key Benefits
- Diamond coating: Sustains high cutting efficiency and reduces microfracture risk while smoothing dentin surface for superior material adaptation .
- Targeted anatomy: Double‑angled 75° tip tailored for buccal roots of molars (mandibular molars and maxillary mesiobuccal canals) .
- Irrigation port (Ø 0.5 mm): Positioned near the 3 mm cutting surface to maintain a clear, cool working area .
- Precise and conservative: Designed for delicate root‑end cavity prep with minimal dentin removal and reduced heat generation .
- Flexible system integration: Available with various threading options (Kerr/EMS/Satelec) for compatibility with standard piezoelectric ultrasonic units .
Specifications

Indications
- Root‑end cavity preparation during endodontic microsurgery
- Precision troughing around buccal canals in molars
- Reverse‑filling and retro-prep under magnification
- Removal of apical obstructions, root amputation preparation
Instructions for Use
- Select compatible ultrasonic unit and thread tip securely.
- Use low-to-medium power settings with adequate irrigation.
- Gently apply tip to dentin; move with slow strokes to respect cutting surface.
- Monitor cooling; ensure irrigation port remains patent.
- Finish cavity prep; sterilize tip after use per manufacturer guidelines.
Summary
The KiS‑3D tip is a precision-engineered, diamond-coated ultrasonic instrument tailored for molar buccal root‑end surgery. Its double-angle design, integrated irrigation, and material compatibility ensure safe, efficient microsurgical performance in endodontic applications.
