Claim 0:
1. A kit, comprising:
a single endodontic instrument (1) in the form of an endodontic file, which has a tool shaft (3), a handle or a coupling section formed on an upper axial end region of the tool shaft (3) for connection to a motor-driven rotary tool, and a working section (3c) formed on a lower axial end region of the tool shaft (3); and
a container (2) designed as a disposable packaging for storing the single endodontic instrument (1) and having a lower container part (2a), which is open at a top side thereof for receiving the working section (3c) of the single endodontic instrument (1), and has an upper container part (2b), which is open at an underside thereof for receiving the upper axial end region of the single endodontic instrument (1),
wherein a holder (5) is provided on the top side of the lower container part (2a), the holder (5) having an axial through-opening (6) through which the working section (3c) of the single endodontic instrument (1) is inserted into the lower container part (2a), wherein the tool shaft (3) of the instrument (1) is positioned at least one of radially and axially in the through-opening (6) and is fixed in at least one of a clamping manner and by a latching connection,
wherein the upper container part (2b) is connected to the lower container part (2a) in an airtight manner to form the container (2), and wherein an interior of the container (2) and the single endodontic instrument (1) are sterile, and
wherein at least the lower container part (2a) consists of a material dimensionally stable in such a way that the single endodontic instrument (1) inserted into the lower container part (2a) and positioned in the holder (5) can be gripped at the upper axial end region thereof and pulled out of the lower container part (2a) while being held manually without the lower container part (2a) being deformed by the holding pressure to such an extent that it comes into contact with the working section (3c).
