Instrument groupings and their characteristics.
| Group number | File groups | Cross-sectional design | Material | Manufacturing | Operational procedure |
| Group 1 | One Curve (OC; Micro-Mega, Besancon, France) | Variables from triangular to S shapes at apical to coronal part | NiTi: C wire | Heat-treated | Dynamic-continuous |
| Group 2 | ProTaper Gold (PTG); Dentsply Maillefer, Ballaigues, Switzerland) | Convex triangular | NiTi: gold-wire | Heat-treated | Dynamic-continuous |
| Group 3 | Wave One Gold (WOG; Dentsply Sirona, Ballaigues, Switzerland) | Parallelogram | NiTi: gold-wire | Heat-treated | Dynamic-reciprocal (clockwise 150° and anticlockwise 30°) |
