“…These results come in accordance with Polineni et al (34). On the other hand, this result is come contradict to Demiriz et al 2016 (33), who reported no significant difference between root sections of MTA Fillapex and AH Plus. The difference in the result might be related to the use of the different obturation technique.…”

Introduction: the aim of this in vitro study was to evaluate push-out bond strength and interfacial adaptation to dentine wall of EndoSequence BC (BC) and MTA Fillapex sealers compared to AH Plus sealer (AH+). Methods: sixty-six human extracted single rooted teeth with single root canal were selected and the crowns were removed at the level of CEJ to standardized the roots length (16 mm). Samples were instrumented using ProTaper universal NiTi rotary system up to size F5. After irrigation and smear layer removal samples were randomly divided according to tested sealer used into three groups of 22 sample each, and then obturated using lateral compaction technique and stored for 1 week before testing. Each group was subdivided according to test into two subgroups of 11 sample each, push-out test or interfacial adaptation. Data were statistically analyzed by one-way ANOVA and Tukay's post-hoc test (P≤0.05). Results: AH Plus has a statistically significant higher bond strength value than each of EndoSequence BC group and MTA Fillapex group. Regarding interfacial adaptation there was no statistically significant difference between the three sealers. Conclusion: EndoSequence BC bioceramic sealer, MTA Fillapex MTA based sealer showed their inferiority regarding push-out bond strength when compared to AH Plus resin based sealer. All of the three sealers showed different grades of gap width along the whole length of root canal wall.

“…Demiriz et al 2016 (33); stated that incomplete polymerization, viscosity increases during the polymerization or polymerization shrinkage could be the cause of gap formation in AH Plus and MTA Fillapex who had a resin component. In the current study, samples were stored for one week to be sure that sealers were set completely.…”

Objective:The objective of this study is to compare the apical sealability of mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) Fillapex and Endosequence BC sealer at three different lengths of remaining gutta-percha after postspace preparation.Materials and Methods:A total of 80 freshly extracted human maxillary anterior teeth were decoronated, biomechanically prepared, and randomly divided into four groups; Group A and Group B served as positive and negative control with 10 teeth each. The teeth in Group C and Group D (with 30 teeth each) were obturated with gutta-percha using MTA Fillapex sealer and Endosequence BC sealer, respectively. Teeth in Group C and Group D were further subdivided into three subgroups depending on the length of remaining apical gutta-percha, i.e., 3, 4, and 5 mm after postspace preparation. Apical leakage was assessed using dye penetration method under stereomicroscope.Results:In both the Groups C and D, there was overall no statistically significant difference in leakage; however, Group C showed slightly more leakage than Group D. There was a statistically significant difference in leakage at 3 mm and 5 mm level in both groups.Conclusion:Although less microleakage occurred, the bioceramic sealers could not totally eliminate leakage.

“…The most commonly used root canal obturation materials are gutta percha points and sealant cements. 1,12,17,[20][21][22] Gutta percha points are composed of inert rubber with zinc oxide and silver additives. 1 They do not adhere to the tooth's dentinal walls 12,23 or prevent leakage through the canal.…”

“…Most endodontic failures are due to bacterial or irritant microleakage from the root canal into the surrounding periapical tissues due to an inadequate apical seal. [25][26][27][28][29] The combination of a gutta percha point and sealant cement should ideally create a tridimensional, hermetic, fluid-tight, bacterial-impervious seal, 12,14,18,20,[30][31][32] preventing recontamination of the canal and the apical migration of bacteria and irritants. 1,[14][15][16] An ideal root canal sealant should have certain characteristics.…”

Intentional or unintentional pulp exposure of cat canines can lead to periapical disease, osteomyelitis, and oral pain. Root canal therapy (RCT) allows the retention of cat canines with pulp exposure by removing the infected pulp and replacing it with an inert material. This study used MTA Fillapex™ as a root canal sealant with gutta percha single cone obturation in 37 cats (50 canine teeth). Roots were classified as “successful,” “no evidence of failure (NEF),” or “failed” at 6-month radiographic reviews. Therapy was considered “successful” if a preoperative periapical lucency had healed or not formed after treatment and any preoperative external inflammatory root resorption (EIRR) had stabilized without progression. Therapy was categorized as “NEF” if a periapical lucency had remained the same or decreased in size but not completely resolved and any preoperative EIRR had stabilized without progression. “Failed” if a periapical lucency had occurred or increased in size posttreatment or if EIRR had developed or progressed posttreatment. Thirty-two canine teeth (64%) were classified as “successful,” 14 canine teeth (28%) were classified as “NEF,” and 4 canine teeth (8%) were classified as “failed”. The study concluded that RCT using MTA Fillapex as a root canal sealant is a suitable endodontic treatment for fractured cat canines, especially those that are periodontally or endodontically challenged.
