Objective: GuttaCore (GC) is a new cross-linked gutta-percha carrier. The purpose of this study was to evaluate its ability to be removed and the time taken for its removal compared with a plastic carrier (Thermafil - TF) and a conventional thermoplasticized technique (Continuous Wave of Condensation - CWC). Method: Forty-five maxillary central i...

Introduction: GuttaFlow Bioseal (Roeko-Coltene/Whaledent, Langenau, Germany), TotalFill Bioceramic (FKG Dentaire SA, La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland), and AH Plus root canal sealers (Dentsply, DeTrey, Germany) are used to prevent communication between periapical space and the root canal. This study aims to evaluate the apical microleakage of three e...

This study was to investigate in vitro the effect of using hot endodontic pluggers for immediate dowel space preparation on the apical seal of endodontically treated teeth by a lateral condensation technique. Results showed no significant difference in apical leakage occurred when the spaces were created immediately after obturation or when they we...

DOI: 10.26650/eor.2018.446Purpose The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of a commercially available irrigant, the Qmix 2 in 1, on the push out bond strength of Endosequence BC which is a bioceramic based root canal sealer. Material and methods Sixty extracted maxillary central incisors were prepared with Protaper Next rotary instrumen...

Background: The bonding strength between the endodontic sealer and the dentine is critical for preserving the endodontic filling material's integrity and sealing ability. Therefore, the current study aims to use a push-out bond strength test to compare and evaluate the intra-radicular bonding strength of four endodontic sealers (AH-Plus, ADseal, MT...

Aim: In Endodontics, a complete chemo-mechanical cleansing of the root canal system is essential to achieving success, which is gained through adequate tridimensional obturation of the endodontic space. Materials and methods: Today, thanks to modern technologies as Operative Microscope, ultrasonic tips, M-Wire Files, devices to activate irrigation...
