To evaluate, using an experimental immature tooth model, the fracture resistance of bovine incisors submitted to different reinforcement treatments with mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA).An model was created by sectioning coronal and apical portions 40 8 mm above 12 below cementoenamel junction. The root canals were irrigated 1.0% sodium hypochlorite. They enlarged both coronally apically number 703 carbide burs (ISO: 500-104-168-007-021) their internal diameter standardized 2.1 mm. specimens...
Abstract Aim To evaluate the influence of location and design endodontic access cavities on root canal shaping filling ability, pulp chamber cleaning fracture resistance extracted human mandibular incisors. Methodology After pre‐selection using periapical radiographs, forty intact incisors were scanned in a micro‐computed tomographic device. The teeth matched based similar anatomical features canals assigned to four experimental groups ( n = 10) according cavity preparation protocol:...
Introduction: There is a concern regarding the heating transfer to periodontal tissues after irrigating solution activation. Therefore, this study analyzed real-time changes in internal and external root temperatures using different systems for activating irrigant. Methods: Two single-rooted mandibular premolars were chemomechanically prepared. Three orifices drilled on surface at 3, 6, 9 mm from apical foramen with spherical diamond bur. In one tooth, drilling was restricted cementum....
Abstract Ultrasonic activation of the endodontic sealer makes it difficult to remove material during reintervention. Therefore, supplementary removal protocols should be tested optimize remaining filling material. This study assessed effectiveness for after ultrasonic (UA). Sixty teeth were prepared and distributed into two groups: UA No before obturation. Teeth re-instrumented tested, resulting in six groups (n = 10): NoUA; NoUA+XP (XP-endo Finisher); NoUA+CS (Clearsonic-R1); UA; UA+XP;...
To evaluate connective tissue reactions to iRoot SP (Innovative Bioceramics, Vancouver, BC, Canada), mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) Fillapex (FLPX) (Angelus Soluções Odontológicas, Londrina, Brazil), DiaRoot Bioaggregate (DiaDent Group International, Burnaby, Canada) and white MTA (Angelus, Brazil) in Wistar rats.A total of 128 dentine tubes filled with the materials 32 empty (control) were implanted into rats. After 7, 15, 30 90 days (n = 8 per period), animals euthanized, tissues...
