To develop a model to test cyclic fatigue resistance of TruNatomy instruments undergoing rotational and axial movement at body temperature. A total of 288 Prime and Medium instruments were subjected to cyclic fatigue testing in simulated canals (at 37°C) using a model with either rotational movement only or rotational and axial movement simultaneously. Two different sized canals and three different types of curvatures were tested for each instrument (30/0.04 and 30/0.06 for Prime; 38/0.04 and 40/0.06 for Medium). The number of cycles to failure (fatigue resistance) was recorded. Rotational and axial movement of instruments led to greater fatigue resistance compared with rotational movement alone. Apical curvatures led to greater fatigue resistance than curvatures in the coronal and middle third. The developed dynamic model at body temperature to evaluate fatigue resistance of instrument closer simulates clinical scenarios.
