In recent years, two rotary systems specially designed for deciduous teeth have been commercially available, but information about their performance is lacking. This investigation aimed to identify which manufacturing process provides better cyclic fatigue resistance: the AF-H Wire technology used in the AF baby rotary files (AF-f) or the CM-Wire technology used in the i3 Gold deciduous teeth rotary files (i3G-f). Forty rotary International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 25/04 files were tested in artificial canals with a standard geometry of 60° angle and 2.5 mm radius until fracture.

Energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) was used to determine the percentage weight of NiTi in each file. The statistical analysis (Mann-Whitney test) showed that the cyclic fatigue resistance of the AF-f was significantly higher (<i>p</i> < 0.0001) than that of the i3G-f. Additionally, there was a significant difference (<i>p</i> = 0.0419) in the length of the fractured fragments.

The treatment outcome was assessed by the alterations in the distance of skeletal pogonion (Pog) to the vertical reference plane perpendicular to the Frankfurt plane (ΔPog-VRP). Moreover, ΔPog-VRP was divided by the cranial growth indicated by the Nasion to Basion changes (ΔN-Ba) to minimize the growth discrepancy among individuals (adjΔPog-VRP).
