Adaptation of single-cone gutta-percha in curved canals prepared and obturated with protaper and heroshaper systems by using cone beam computed tomography

Abstract

Objective: The aim of this study is to prepare and obturate the curved canals of the mesiobuccal root of maxillary first molar with four different file systems that is protaper hand files, rotary pro taper (RP) files, heroshaper hand files, and rotary hero shapers files and to evaluate the adaptation of their single-cone Gutta-percha by cone beam computed tomography (CBCT). Materials and Methods: Eighty teeth were selected and were divided into two groups (G1A1, G1A2 and G2A1, G2A2 as hand and RP file system, G1A3, G1A4 and G2A3, G2A4 as hand and rotary hero shaper files system) of fourth teeth each. After access opening working length of the mesiobuccal canal was established. The distobuccal and palatal roots of the samples were removed using the diamond disc at the furcation level. “Endoanalyser” software was used to measure Schneider's angle on the preoperative radiograph. This angle was measured by drawing two lines-one parallel to the long axis of the canal, in the coronal third, and the second line from the apical foramen to intersect the point where the first line left the long axis of the canal. The canals of each group were then prepared according to the manufacturer's instructions for protaper hand files, RP files, heroshaper hand files, and rotary hero shapers files systems. Direct digital radiography image of all the samples was obtained. And then, the samples were exposed to CBCT to evaluate their single-cone adaptations. The data were analyzed using SPSS 20, IBM, Armonk, NY, United States of America. Results: The null hypothesis that there will not be any gap area in the adaptation of their single-cone of different file system was rejected. Minimal gap area was seen in rotary hero shapers file system (0.001 mm 2 ) and was maximum in hand protaper (HP) file system (0.015 mm 2 ). Conclusion: CBCT is a useful tool in detecting the gap area after obturation in curved canals. The HP single-cone adaptation showed the maximum gap area and rotary heroshaper single-cone adaptation showed the minimum gap area.

Cone-beam Computed Tomographic Evaluation of the Quality of Obturation Using Different Pediatric Rotary File Systems in Primary Teeth

“…Using CBCT, evaluation of the canal morphology and adaptation of the obturating material was done in permanent teeth. 14 – 16 Studies were done to evaluate the cleaning efficacy of hand and conventional NiTi rotary files 10 , 17 , 18 in primary teeth. Volumetric evaluation of various obturation techniques was done in primary teeth.…”

“…Faktanya, sealer dibutuhkan untuk memenuhi persyaratan seal yang sempurna. Untuk meningkatkan keselamatan kerja, mempersingkat waktu persiapan dan menciptakan preparasi yang continously tapered, conical flare, desain instrumen canggih dengansingle cone dikembangkan.Teknik obturasi single cone mempercepat pengisian saluran akar sambil meminimalkan wedging force pada dinding saluran akar 11. Selanjutnya dilakukan evaluasi perawatan setelah satu minggu yang menunjukkan tidak ada kelainan, nyeri, dan tidak sensitive terhadap tes perkusi dan palpasi.…”
