Abstract:The aim of the present study was to compare the filling capacity of cold lateral condensation, warm vertical condensation and Thermafil ® in severely curved canals of extracted human molars. Material and Methods: Mesiobuccal (MB) canals of 90 mandibular molars with angles of curvature ranging between 25° and 35° and radius of 5 to 9 mm curvature were divided into three groups (n=30 each). In each group, canals were instrumented with ProTaper ® and obturated either by cold lateral condensation (L), warm vertica… Show more
