Sealing ability, marginal adaptation and their correlation using three root-end filling materials as apical plugs

Abstract: ObjectiveThis study used dye leakage assay and scanning electron microscopy to evaluate, respectively, the sealing ability and marginal adaptation of three root-end filling materials used as apical plugs, as well as the possible correlation between these properties.Material and MethodsNinety-eight single-rooted human teeth were prepared to simulate an open apex. The teeth were allocated to three experimental groups (n = 30), which received a 5-mm thick apical plug of (1) gray MTA AngelusTM, (2) CPMTM and (3) M… Show more

“…A separate study that assessed the apical leakage found that MBPc had superior sealing ability as a root-end filling material when compared to MTA and CPM. 16 The presence of resin component in the formulation of MBPc and S26 likely improved the sealing by the root-end filling due to enhanced adhesion to the dentinal walls and lower contraction. In our study the MBPc, S26, MTA, and PC/ZO also showed low values of fluid infiltration when measured on days 7 and 15.…”

“…The sealing capacity of these restorative materials used as cervical barrier may be harmed by both the bleaching agent and the type of material used 15 . Different methods are used for evaluating marginal leakage of restorative materials, such a penetrant dyes [16][17] , transport of fluids 15 and microbiological tests 18. Rhodamin B dye has been used in various studies [16][17][19][20] for evaluating marginal leakage of restorative materials, because it has homogeneity and stability when in contact with other materials, and does not undergo discoloration.…”

“…5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15 The material is commercially available as white-colored MTA (WMTA) or gray-colored MTA (GMTA), both preparations being essentially 75% Portland cement, 20% bismuth oxide and 5% gypsum by weight. 11 MTA also exhibits certain clinical challenges such as prolonged setting time, potential tooth discoloration (gray-colored preparation), relative high cost and sensitive handling properties.…”
