Percentage of gutta‐percha in mesial canals of mandibular molars obturated by lateral compaction or single cone techniques

Abstract: The aim of this study was to compare the percentage of gutta-percha (PGP) in mesial root canals of mandibular molars obturated with LC (Lateral Compaction) or SC (Single Cone) ProTaper Universal System techniques at different levels of the root. Mesial root canals of 20 human permanent molars with similar anatomical characteristics were instrumented using the ProTaper Universal rotary system technique until the F2 instrument, with 20 canals filled by SC ProTaper Universal technique and 20 canals by the LC tech… Show more

“…On the contrary, in the root canal obturation the principal material present is the gutta-percha and the solvent action of these substances on the gutta-percha are similar. 12,17 Therefore, this fact favored the results from the retreatment protocols were similar. Intracanal residues persistence is related to the local anatomy.…”

“…This phenomenon was also contributed by the fact that the gutta-percha to be the main filling material. [17][18][19] As the root canals were previously standardized using F2 instrument, a root canal circular shape was obtained favoring the rotary instruments action. 18,19 The persistence of gutta-percha residues and/or endodontic sealer tends to be similar in the buccolingual and mesiodistal direction once the root canal anatomy is circular.…”

“…Al contrario secondo uno studio di Rodrigues et al 85 (GRAFICO 2), nel quale si valutava la percentuale di guttaperca a 3, 5 e 7 mm dall'apice in canali mesiali curvi di molari inferiori sigillati con la tecnica laterale e con il cono singolo, esisterebbero differenze statisticamente significative nel volume di guttaperca in campioni otturati con la tecnica del cono singolo per i quali la percentuale di polimero risulterebbe più elevata rispetto alla condensazione laterale a freddo. Ciò è probabilmente spiegabile in virtù del fatto che anatomie canalari strette e curve, come quelle dei campioni esaminati, limitano la penetrazione dello spreader utilizzato per la condensazione laterale.…”

“…There are many parameters for evaluating the quality of root canal seal, such as radiographic visualization (12) or observation of computed tomography images (13,14). One method to evaluate the quality of root canal seal is to determine the area of GP in the root canal filling in relation to the amount of sealer or empty spaces, by microscopic observation of the root cross-sections (15)(16)(17). Furthermore, it is possible to establish a ratio between theareas with filling material and the empty areas.…”
