“…Crozeta et al applied in their study XP-Endo Finisher R and an ultrasonic tip as supplementary steps in the retreatment of oval-shaped canals filled with Gutta-percha and two different types of sealers (AH Plus or BC Sealer). They compared the efficacy of the two techniques in the removal of the root filling materials and concluded that the ultrasonic tip is equally effective in removing both types of sealers, while XP-Endo Finisher R removes AH Plus sealer better than BC Sealer (15). On the other hand, H.Aksel et al reported that XP-Endo Finisher significantly improves the removal of root filling, regardless of the sealer used (16).…”

Introduction:The proper cleaning and reshaping of the root canal space is of great importance for the good outcome of the retreatment case. None of the different methods and instruments used for filling material removal during endodontic retreatment exhibit 100% effectiveness. Aim: The aim of the current review article is to observe the contemporary supplementary approaches used in endodontic retreatment. Materials and Methods: Articles within the last 10 years were reviewed in light of the most commonly used supplementary techniques. Conclusion: Supplementary approaches show sophisticated results in filling remnants removal which leads to аbetter outcome of the endodontic retreatment cases.

“…They tend to improve significantly the removal of filling remnants after the bulk of the material has been removed. Some of the investigated ultrasonic tips proved to be appropriate for cleaning of BC Sealers (15). Lasers were first introduced in 1959 and since then, they have been used in many aspects of the contemporary dentistry.…”

“…The sealers used in the present study have similar physicochemical characteristics, such as high flow, biocompatibility and radiopacity 7,21 , although their compositions differ and also their adhesion mechanism to dentin. AH Plus is an epoxy resin sealer that interacts chemically with the root dentin collagen with covalent bonds between its epoxy rings and collagen amine groups 22 . Total fill BC presents chemical bonding to mineralized tissues and therefore, the use of EDTA as an irrigating agent to remove smear-layer prior to obturation could decrease the interaction with the dentin wall, since EDTA removes calcium from dentin 22,23 .…”

Aim: The aim of this study was to evaluate, by micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) analysis, the remaining filling material during endodontic retreatment performed with Protaper retreatment without solvent. Methods: Forty mandibular molars were divided into two groups (n = 20) according to the sealer used in the obturation: the bioceramic TotalFill BC (TF) or the resin-based AH Plus (AHP). The specimens were scanned before instrumentation, after obturation and after filling removal. Only the mesial roots were analysed. The filling volumes and the remaining filling material were calculated in the entire root canal and in the cervical, middle and apical thirds. Results: The volume of obturation and the volume of remaining filling material in the entire root canal and in the cervical, middle and apical thirds of the canal between the groups were not statistically different (independent t-test, p > 0.05). In the AHP group, there was a higher percentage of remaining filling material in the middle third than in the cervical third (p < 0.05). Conclusion: The filling material could not be entirely removed from any specimen.

“…In vitro studies have shown that bioceramic materials were less cytotoxic than resin-based materials [13][14][15][16]. Other studies have also shown that resin-based have stronger bonding capacity and higher radiopacity than bioceramic materials [17,18]. Graunaite et al [19], in a split-mouth randomized controlled trial, showed resin-based sealer (AH Plus) and Total Fill had a similar occurrence and intensity of postoperative pain.…”

To evaluate resin-and bioceramic root canal sealers affect postoperative intensity and pain occurrence. Material and Methods: From the electronic databases, PubMed, Cochrane Library, Embase, ISI have been used to perform systematic literature until September 2020. Electronic titles were managed using the Endnote X8 software. They performed searches with mesh terms. Two reviewers blindly and independently extracted data from studies that included data for data extraction. Results: A total of 186 potentially relevant titles and abstracts were found. Finally, four studies were included. Pain score was (RR = -0.20; 95% CI -1.09-0.68; p= 0.65). This result showed no statistically significant difference for the resinbased and bioceramic root canal sealers after 24 hours between the VAS scores. Conclusion: Postoperative pain was low in Patients requiring root canal retreatment and obturated with resin-based or bioceramicbased sealers without extrusion beyond the apex. No differences were observed between postoperative pain in resin-based and bioceramic root canal sealers 24 and 48 hours postoperatively.
