Beyond
the Break

From Panic to Protocol

A focused 2-day online masterclass on managing the separated (broken) file — assessment, retrieval, bypass and decision-making — so the next time a file breaks, you already know your move.

First, the truth

A file separates in one second — and most dentists freeze.

A fatigued NiTi file fractures in an instant, often with no warning.

Cyclic fatigue from rotating in a curve, or torsional stress when the tip locks while the shaft keeps turning. The metal was failing long before it snapped — you just couldn't see it.

The fragment is now in the canal, and you have three real options: retrieve, bypass, or leave. Choosing wrong can turn a savable tooth into an extraction. This masterclass gives you that decision — and the confidence to make it.

Dr. Ahmed Khaled

International Endodontic Specialist & Educator
BDS · MBA · MSc Endodontics (Cand.) · Founder, AK Dental Hub

Mentor to dentists across multiple countries, Dr. Ahmed simplifies complex endodontics into clear, repeatable clinical systems. He trains with — and learns from — some of the field's leading names, and brings that experience straight to your screen.

This masterclass distills years of separated-file cases into one decisive framework you can apply the very next day in your clinic.

Everything about the broken file — in 6 modules.

Two live evenings that take you from why files fracture, all the way to retrieving, bypassing and preventing them — plus the medico-legal and patient side most courses skip.

01 Module One · Day 1

Understanding the Broken File

  • What a separated instrument actually is
  • NiTi metallurgy: how the alloy behaves and why it fails
  • Cyclic fatigue vs torsional stress — the two deaths of a file
  • Early warning signs: unwinding, deformation, surface defects
  • How rotation, taper & canal curvature multiply the risk
02 Module Two · Day 1

Risk Assessment & Localization

  • High-risk canals: curvature, calcification, abrupt bends, narrow canals
  • Radiographic angulation tricks to localize the fragment
  • CBCT reading in 3-D: depth, position & access planning
  • Estimating retrievability before you touch an instrument
03 Module Three · Day 1

The Decision Algorithm

  • The full retrieve · bypass · leave · refer framework
  • Case selection: matching the move to the fragment & the tooth
  • How much dentine you can sacrifice — and when you shouldn't
  • Reading the case in seconds, not minutes
04 Module Four · Day 2

Retrieval Techniques

  • Straight-line access to the fragment without weakening the root
  • Ultrasonic staging platform & troughing principles
  • Loop / microtube retrieval systems explained
  • Retrieval kits — what's in them and when to reach for each
05 Module Five · Day 2

Bypass Techniques

  • Negotiating alongside the fragment with pre-curved hand files
  • The role of chelators and lubrication
  • Incorporating a bypassed fragment into the final obturation
  • When bypass beats retrieval — and when it doesn't
06 Module Six · Day 2 ★ Bonus

Prognosis, Prevention & the Patient

  • The evidence on leaving a fragment and its effect on prognosis
  • Prevention protocols: glide path, torque control, motion & file life
  • Medico-legal considerations you can't ignore
  • How to brief the patient and keep their trust through the case
The transformation

By the end, you won't fear a separated file.

01

Decide in seconds

A clear mental algorithm: retrieve, bypass or leave — and exactly when to do each.

02

Read the case

Judge retrievability from the radiograph and CBCT before you pick up an instrument.

03

Know the techniques

Ultrasonic staging, troughing, loop/microtube retrieval and controlled bypass — explained clearly.

04

Prevent the next one

Glide path, torque, motion and file fatigue — the habits that stop separation at the source.
