RESUMEN

Introduction: Different NiTi rotary systems have been developed to improve efficiency and retreatment success rates. Aim: To evaluate the Protaper Universal retreatment system and WaveOne instrument in removing the filling material from curved canals during retreatment. Materials and Methods: Thirty mesial root canals of extracted human mandibular molar teeth were randomly allocated into 2 groups (n=15). In the PT group, retreatment was performed with ProTaper Universal Retreatment according to the manufacturer's instructions. In the WO group, was used WaveOne Primary. ProTaper Universal F2 and F3 were used to achieve the apical diameter in both groups. The samples were scanned by micro-computed tomography pre and postoperatively to evaluate the filling material remaining. The percentage of material filling was compared between groups using Student's T test and in the same group among thirds was compared using Kruskal-Wallis followed by Dunn's post hoc test. Results: The filling material remaining was not statistically different between the groups (p≥0.05). The apical third presented a greater amount of remaining filling material when compared with the cervical third for both groups (p<0.05). Conclusion: Rotary and reciprocating techniques can effectively, but not completely, remove the filling materials from the root canal system. The apical third presented a more significant amount of remaining filling material.

RESUMEN

The aim of this study was to assess self-reported history of root canal treatment (SRHRCT) as a method for detecting the presence of root canal treatment (RCT) and apical periodontitis (AP) in a southern Brazilian subpopulation. In this cross-sectional study, 136 military police officers from the city of Porto Alegre, Brazil, were included. The participants were interviewed and full-mouth periapical radiographs were taken. A calibrated examiner determined the presence of RCT and AP by applying standardized criteria. The diagnostic accuracy of SRHRCT was calculated separately for RCT and AP. Accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values (+PV and -PV), efficiency, and positive and negative likelihood ratios (+LR and -LR) were estimated. The mean age of the participants was 34.1 ± 10.4 years and 88.2% were males. Overall, SRHRCT demonstrated high sensitivity and specificity for RCT, but not for AP: sensitivity (RCT = 0.960, AP = 0.757) and specificity (RCT = 0.835, AP = 0.631). The estimated values for PV and LR were: +PV (RCT=0.777, AP=0.396), -PV (RCT = 0.972, AP = 0.890), +LR (RCT = 5.853, AP = 2.057), and -LR (RCT = 0.046, AP = 0.383). SRHRCT proved to be a good predictor of the presence of RCT, but a weak predictor of AP in this subpopulation.

RESUMEN

INTRODUCTION: The purpose of this study was to evaluate apical debris extrusion associated with different kinematics in curved root canals. METHODS: Forty-five extracted mandibular molars with root curvature angles ranging between 20° and 40° and curvature radii <10 mm were randomly assigned to 3 groups (n = 15) according to the kinematics used for root canal preparation: reciprocating motion with the WaveOne Gold system (Dentsply Tulsa Dental, Tulsa, OK), rotary/reciprocating motion with the Twisted File Adaptive system (SybronEndo, Orange, CA), and the manual technique. The debris apically extruded during preparation was collected into preweighed Eppendorf tubes. The tubes were then stored in an incubator at 70°C for 5 days. The extruded debris was quantified by subtracting the preinstrumentation from the postinstrumentation weight of the Eppendorf tubes. The time required for each instrumentation procedure was recorded. Data were analyzed using 1-way analysis of variance Tukey post hoc tests (∝ = 0.05). RESULTS: The WaveOne Gold reciprocating single-file system was associated with less extrusion of debris compared with hand files (P < .05) and the Twisted File Adaptive system (P > .05). The preparation time required by hand files was significantly longer than that required by the other techniques (P < .05). CONCLUSIONS: Under the conditions of this study, all of the instrumentation systems caused apical debris extrusion to some degree. The WaveOne Gold reciprocating system was associated with less debris extrusion in curved root canals compared with the manual technique and the Twisted File Adaptive system although the difference between the WaveOne Gold and Twisted File Adaptive systems was not significant.

RESUMEN

Abstract The aim of this study was to assess the amount of apically extruded debris during filling removal with WaveOne Gold (WOG), ProTaper Universal Retreatment (PTR), D-RaCe Retreatment (DRR) or hand files (HF), to compare the working time during filling removal, and to describe failures of NiTi instruments. Forty mesiobuccal roots of maxillary first molars were prepared with WOG Primary, obturated and divided into 4 groups (n=10), according to the instruments used: WOG, PTR, DRR or HF. Distilled water was used as irrigant and the extruded debris were collected in Eppendorf tubes and dried. The amount of extruded debris was determined by subtracting the final from the initial weight. The time of filling removal for each canal was recorded and the instruments used were analyzed pre and post-operatively by SEM. Kruskal-Wallis and Dunn's test analyzed extruded debris data and ANOVA, followed by Tukey's test, compared the working time data (a=0.05). Instrument deformation and fracture were described. WOG produced significantly less debris compared with HF and DRR (p<0.05), and similar to PTR (p>0.05). HF, PTR and DRR showed no significant difference (p>0.05). Working time in HF group was significantly higher than others (p<0.05). SEM analyses showed, from the 18 instruments evaluated, 3 fractures and 10 deformations. All instruments tested caused debris extrusion. WOG was associated with less extrusion than DRR and HF. Filling removal with HF was slower than with the other instruments. All NiTi systems presented fracture and deformation.


Resumo O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar a extrusão apical de debris durante a desobturação com WaveOne Gold (WOG), ProTaper Universal Retratamento (PTR), D-RaCe (DRR) ou limas manuais (HF), comparar o tempo de trabalho durante a desobturação, e descrever as falhas dos instrumentos de NiTi. Quarenta canais de raízes mésio-vestibulares de primeiros molars superiores foram preparados com WOG Primary, obturados e divididos em 4 grupos (n = 10), de acordo com os instrumentos a serem utilizados: WOG, PTR, DRR ou HF. Água destilada foi utilizada como irrigante, e os debris extruídos foram coletados em tubos Eppendorf e secos. A quantidade de debris extruídos foi determinada subtraindo-se o peso inicial do peso final. O tempo de cada desobturação foi anotado e os instrumentos utilizados foram analisados no pré e pós-operatório em MEV. Os testes Kruskal-Wallis e Dunn foram utilizados para analisar os dados da extrusão de debris, e os testes ANOVA e Tukey para comparar os dados do tempo de trabalho (a=0.05). As deformações e fraturas dos instrumentos foram descritas. O grupo WOG produziu significativamente menos debris quando comparado aos grupos HF e DRR (p<0.05), e foi similar ao grupo PTR (p>0.05). Os grupos HF, PTR e DRR não apresentaram diferença estatisticamente significante (p>0.05). O tempo de trabalho no grupo HF foi significativamente maior do que nos outros grupos (p<0.05). A análise em MEV mostrou que, dos 18 instrumentos avaliados, 3 fraturaram e em 10 foi observado deformação. Todos os sistemas testados causaram extrusão apical de debris. WOG foi associado com menor extrusão do que DRR e HF. A desobturação com HF foi mais lenta do que com os demais instrumentos. Todos os sistemas de NITI apresentaram fratura e deformação.

RESUMEN

CONTEXT: One of the goals of endodontic therapy is the shaping and cleaning of the root canal system. In recent years, there has been multiple systems instrumentation, and changes in their dynamics are central to maintain the original shape of the canal after preparation. AIMS: The aim of this study was to evaluate centering and transportation in curved root canals after using ProTaper(®) and MTwo(®) in continuous rotation, Reciproc(®) in reciprocating motion, and a step-down manual instrumentation technique. SETTINGS AND DESIGN: Mesiobuccal roots of human extracted the first and second maxillary molars were selected and the canals (n = 60) were divided into four groups according to the preparation techniques: PT-ProTaper(®); MT-MTwo(®); RE-Reciproc(®); MI-manual instrumentation. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: The final apical diameter was standardized to a size 25. Centering and transportation were evaluated by cone-beam computed tomography and Adobe Photoshop 8.0 software. STATISTICAL ANALYSIS USED: The data were statistically analyzed by ANOVA and Tukey post hoc. RESULTS: Results of transportation showed no statistical differences (P > 0.05) between groups, and significantly, difference (P < 0.05) between ProTaper(®) and Reciproc(®) was found when evaluating centering ability in the apical third. CONCLUSIONS: We concluded that there were no differences in transportation between the evaluated systems for the preparation of curved root canals with an apical instrumentation diameter of #25. For centering ability, in the apical third, ProTaper(®) presented worst behavior when compared to Reciproc(®).

RESUMEN

The aim of this study was to compare the rotary ProTaper Universal system, the single-file reciprocating WaveOne system and an association of motions assessing shaping ability, cleanliness, preparation time and instrument failures after preparation of curved root canals. Sixty root canals of extracted human molar teeth, with curvatures ranging between 20° and 40°, were divided into three groups, according with preparation system. Canals were prepared until apical size 25 using the ProTaper Universal system (G1), WaveOne (G2), or a hybrid technique (G3) associating reciprocating preparation with rotary glide path and cervical pre-enlargement. Teeth were scanned pre and post-operatively using computed tomography. Direction of transportation and centering ability of canals were measured using a computer image analysis program, and the results were analyzed statistically using one-way ANOVA. Preparation time was analyzed by one-way ANOVA and the Tukey post hoc test. Instrument failures were recorded. The amounts of debris and smear layer were quantified based on a numerical evaluation scale by scanning electron microscopy and were analyzed statistically using the Kruskal-Wallis test. No difference in transportation and centering ratio was found between the systems. Instrumentation with WaveOne was significantly faster than with other instruments (p < 0.05). During preparation, no instruments fractured and three suffered deformations. For debris removal and remaining smear layer, the results for the three groups were similar. The single-file reciprocating instrument was capable of providing faster root canal preparation with similar transporting, centralization and cleaning ability when compared with continuous and an association of motions in curved canals.

RESUMEN

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the immediate and long-term bond strengths to root dentin of Epiphany/Resilon and AH Plus/gutta-percha fillings, after using either lateral condensation or Tagger's hybrid thermomechanical compaction techniques. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Eighty human single-rooted teeth were used. The root canals were prepared by means of hand crown-down technique up to a #45 K-file and irrigation with 1% sodium hypochlorite was performed. Samples were randomly divided into eight (n=10) experimental groups divided according to filling material (gutta-percha/AH Plus and Resilon/Epiphany), obturation technique (Lateral compaction and Tagger's hybrid thermomechanical compaction) and storage time (24 h and 6 months). During storage, the samples were kept at 37°C and 100% humidity. After the two experimental periods, each root was sectioned perpendicular to its long axis into three serial slices and push-out tests were carried out using a universal testing machine. Statistical significant differences were set by ANOVA and Tuckey post-hoc (p<0.05). RESULTS: Using thermocompaction technique, the samples filled with Epiphany/Resilon decreased significantly the bond strength after a 6 months storage-period (p<0.05) and the ones filled with AH Plus/gutta-percha presented a tendency to lower values of the push-out test, although not statistically significant. For both materials, dentin bond strength of the specimens filled by means of lateral condensation remained stable throughout the experimental periods. CONCLUSION: Under the limitations of the current study, it can be concluded that the thermocompaction technique and the storage time can influence push-out bond strength when used with methacrylate-based sealers.

RESUMEN

INTRODUCTION: This study analyzed bone tissue reactions to MTA Fillapex (Ângelus Industria de Produtos Odontológicos Ltda, Londrina, Brazil) compared with an epoxy resin-based material in the femur of Wistar rats. METHODS: Bone tissue reactions were evaluated in 15 animals after 7, 30, and 90 days (n = 5 per period). Three surgical cavities were prepared on the femur and filled with 0.2 mL MTA Fillapex, AH Plus (Dentsply DeTrey GmbH, Konstanz, Germany), or no sealer (negative control). By the end of each experimental period, 5 animals were randomly euthanized. The samples were histologically processed and analyzed using a light microscope. The presence of inflammatory cells, fibers, and hard tissue barrier formation was evaluated. Differences among the groups and between the 3 experimental periods were evaluated by using 2-way analysis of variance followed by the Bonferroni post hoc test (P ≤ .05). RESULTS: MTA Fillapex scored significantly higher for neutrophils at 7 days than at 90. At 7 days, the same occurred when comparing MTA Fillapex with AH Plus. The presence of lymphocytes/plasmocytes significantly decreased over time in all groups. Macrophages, giant cells, eosinophils, and fiber condensation presented no differences among groups and periods. Within 90 days, all groups presented complete hard tissue barrier formation. CONCLUSIONS: The presence of mineral trioxide aggregate in MTA Fillapex composition did not improve the bone tissue repair. The presence of sealers provided the re-establishment of the original bone tissue structure and the inflammatory response decreased over time, so they can be considered biocompatible.

RESUMEN

Aim: To evaluate, by confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM), the influence of 17% EDTA final irrigation on the penetration of an endodontic resin-based sealer into dentinal tubules after use of 2% chlorhexidine gel. Methods: Forty extracted bovine incisors were instrumented according to the groups: G1 - root canal preparation with 2% chlorhexidine gel (n=10); G2 - root canal preparation with 2% chlorhexidine gel and final irrigation with 17% EDTA (n=10); G3 - root canal preparation with saline and final irrigation with 17% EDTA (n=10); G4 - root canal preparation with saline (n=10). The samples were filled with gutta-percha using AH Plus sealer with rhodamine B fluorescent dye. After seven days, the teeth were sectioned at the coronal, middle, and apical thirds and viewed under confocal microscope. The most representative area of penetration depth was measured in each group. Statistical significance for the sealer penetration area was determined among groups using one-way ANOVA followed by Tuckey test. For thirds comparison, in each group, data were statistically analyzed using Friedman test (p<0.05). Results: The maximum penetration was provided by G2 - 2% chlorhexidine + EDTA (p=0.000). According to this criterion, no differences were found among the other groups and among thirds within the same group. Conclusions: Based on these results, the use of 17% EDTA should be indicated after root canal preparation with 2% chlorhexidine gel for smear layer removal, enhancing the AH Plus sealer penetration.

RESUMEN

O preparo químico-mecânico tem sido essencial no sucesso do tratamento endodôntico. No entanto, atualmente não existe instrumento ou técnica com capacidade de proporcionar a limpeza e a desinfecção dos sistemas de canais em sua totalidade. O objetivo desse estudo foi avaliar a limpeza, tempo, transporte e centralização de preparos de canais radiculares curvos utilizando os sistemas de rotação contínua ProTaper®, de rotação alternada WaveOne® e uma sugestão de técnica híbrida de preparo. Foram selecionadas raízes mesiais de primeiros molares inferiores humanos permanentes extraídos. Após a definição dos ângulos de curvatura e raio, os canais (n=60) foram divididos em três grupos experimentais, conforme sistemas de preparo (ProTaper, WaveOne, WaveOne Técnica Híbrida). O diâmetro apical final foi padronizado em #25. As quantidades de debris e smear layer remanescentes foram analisadas em microscopia eletrônica de varredura, através de escores, e avaliadas estatisticamente por meio do teste de Kruskal–Wallis. Fraturas ou deformações nos instrumentos foram registradas. O tempo de preparo foi cronometrado e analisado através de ANOVA e Tukey. Tomografia computadorizada de feixe cônico pré e pós-operatória foram feitas para mensuração do transporte e centralização dos canais e os resultados obtidos foram avaliados estatisticamente através de ANOVA. Em relação à capacidade de limpeza, os três grupos apresentaram semelhante capacidade em remover debris e formar smear layer, sem diferenças estatísticas (P>0,05) em todas as porções dos canais. O preparo com apenas um instrumento foi significativamente mais rápido do que com sequências de instrumentos (P<0,05). (continua)


(continuação)Durante a instrumentação, não ocorreram fraturas, apenas três instrumentos deformaram. Não foram encontradas diferenças no transporte e centralização dos canais entre os sistemas. Sob as condições deste estudo, todos os instrumentos apresentaram uma capacidade de limpeza similar, sendo o instrumento único semelhante aos demais sistemas de sequências de instrumentos, contudo, reduzindo o tempo de preparo de forma significativa. Nenhum instrumento forneceu um debridamento completo. Todos os grupos mostraram-se similares em relação à capacidade de manter a curvatura original do canal.


The chemo-mechanical preparation is essential for successful endodontic treatment. However, currently no instrument can predictably clean the entire root canal system. The aim of this investigation was to assess the cleanliness, preparation time and shaping ability of curved root canals in extracted human molar teeth using rotary full-sequence ProTaper, single-file system WaveOne and a protocol using both systems. Sixty canals had the degree and the radius of curvature determined and were divided into three groups according with preparation systems. Canals were prepared until #25 apical sizes and the shaping ability and the cleaning efficacy were evaluated. The amounts of debris and smear layer were quantified on the basis of a numerical evaluation scale by scanning electron microscope and were analyzed statistically using the Kruskal–Wallis test. Instrument failures were recorded. Preparation time was analyzed statistically using ANOVA and Tukey. Teeth were scanned pre- and post-operatively using computed tomography to measure shaping changes and the obtained results were statistically analyzed using ANOVA. For debris removal and smear layer remaining, the results for three groups were similar and not significantly different for the all parts of the canals (P> 0.05). Instrumentation with WaveOne was significantly faster than with other instruments (P< 0.05). During preparation, no file fractured, three suffered deformations. No difference in the transportation and centering ratio was found between the systems. Under the conditions of this study, all instruments maintained the original canal curvature well and were safe to use. A single-file system presented as good cleanliness capacity as others, reducing the preparation time significantly, although none could provide a complete debridement.

RESUMEN

Aim: To clarify the influence of 5.25% sodium hypochlorite disinfection of gutta-percha cones onleakage and to compare the outcomes of two sealability assessment methodologies (fluid filtrationand dye penetration methods). Methods: Thirty teeth were prepared and filled using the guttaperchalateral condensation technique. Group I was filled with gutta-percha cones disinfectedwith sodium hypochlorite 5.25%, while Group II was filled with cones that were not disinfected.Apical leakage was measured using: (a) fluid filtration technique and (b) linear measurement ofdye penetration after clearance. Results: The Student’s t-test showed no significant differencebetween the groups for both techniques (p<0.05). Conclusions: Both methodologies employed,even with the inherent limitations, were capable of identifying sealing failures. The disinfection ofgutta-percha cones with 5.25% sodium hypochlorite did not alter apical leakage.
