A new muffle model system to study root canal morphology and instrumentation techniques.

A new muffle model system is presented using the principle of internal indexing. The system is composed of a metal stand, four pins, and a single Teflon mold that is used for the investment of all teeth. This system is very precise, reproducible, and versatile. The sectioned specimens can easily be stored assembled, as opposed to previous systems that rely on external indexing.
