File Taper Design

File Taper Design is a mechanical design specification for endodontic instruments that defines the gradual, longitudinal change in cross-sectional diameter along the active working length of a reciprocating file, distinguishing it from other file geometries by its controlled conical progression to optimize canal shaping efficiency and instrument durability.
