The alpha-phase gutta-percha with deep plugger insertion during warm vertical compaction using a System B heat source moved singificantly more into lateral canals and depressions than the beta-phase gutta-percha.
A method for viscosity measurement of cement grouts is discussed in this paper and the results are presented in the form of formulas and curves.
The cement used in the tests was Type II portland cement. It was found that the cement grouts with water/cement ratios of 0.42 to 0.44 have fluid characteristics of Bingham plastic type.
The hydraulic grade line of grout in a tendon duct was estimated using laboratory viscosity data and was compared with a field test.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
