This plate for packaging dental root-canal instruments comprises a support formed with recesses adapted to receive the instruments and a protection cover which is a slide fit on the plate. The recesses consist of parallel elongated cavities extending at a short distance from, and at right angles to a longitudinal edge of the support, and comprise each an extension in the form of a neck towards the opposite longitudinal edge. The support also comprises a flat central area somewhat recessed in relation to the bottoms of the necks in order to facilitate the gripping of the instruments\shanks.

A container for packaging and dispensing root-canal instruments, notably nerve broaches, each having a shorter, thicker shank portion and a longer slender shaft portion, said container comprising; a generally rectangular support having opposite side edges and opposite end edges, said support being formed of thin light material to provide an upper face and a plurality of spaced identical cavities formed in said upper face and extending parallel to one another and to end edges of said support, each of said cavities comprising a shorter, deeper, wider recess shaped and dimensioned to receive said shank portion of one of said instruments, said recess being located near one side edge of said support, and a longer, shallower and narrower groove shaped and dimensioned to receive said slender shaft portion of said instrument, said groove extending from said recess to the opposite side edge of said support, a central longitudinally extending channel formed in said upper face and extending substantially the full length thereof, said channel intersecting said grooves and having a depth greater than the depth of said grooves and a width to receive finger tips of a user, said support having at opposite side edges thereof depending skirt elements extending down from said upper face and having a height at least equal to the depth of said recesses, and a rigid cover molded of plastic material and comprising a top having a longitudinally extending central portion only engaging said upper face of said support while side portions of said top are recessed from the upper face of said support, and opposite side flanges extending down from said top outwardly of said side edges of said support and having inturned lower edge portions engaging under lower edges of said skirt portions of said support, said cover being thereby slidable longitudinally of said support to uncover individually instruments in said cavities, at least one of said support and cover being transparent so that said instruments can be seen.
