Impact of different kinematics on the efficiency of canal cleanliness

Abstract

Introduction:A properly formed and cleansed root canal is crucial to effective treatment. There have been several breakthroughs in this particular subspecialty of endodontics in recent years.Aim of the study: This research examines three rotational root canal instruments, the TF Adaptive, Reciproc, and ProTaper Next file systems, comparing them regarding cleaning efficiency.Subjects and Methods: Twenty-four freshly removed mandibular premolars were divided into three groups, each with eight samples. Three file systems were utilized, TF Adaptive, Reciproc, and ProTaper NEXT. When the three files were prepared, they were scored based on how well they removed debris, and SEM images were captured to determine how well they had been cleaned. Results:The coronal areas of canals treated with ProTaper NEXT showed much less debris and a smear layer. All employed file systems did not effectively remove debris in the middle and apical thirds.Conclusions: ProTaper Next files were the most effective in canal cleanliness in the coronal, middle, and apical thirds, followed by Reciproc and then TF Adaptive.
