The low modulus of elasticity of the NiTi alloy would allow the production of more efficient instruments to prepare curved canals.NITI alloys used in the production of endodontic instruments have almost equiatomic ratios of nickel and titanium elements and contain three microstructural phases named austenite, martensite, and R-phase.
