Comparison of Obturation Quality in Natural and Replica Teeth Root-Filled Using Different Sealers and Techniques [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Oral Investigations, 2023
ObjectivesThis study aims to assess the obturation efficacy of sealers placed with different techniques using microcomputed tomography (µCT) and assess the influence of µCT testing parameters on the obturation data obtained.Materials and methodsIncisors ...

Obturator hernia: The plug technique

Hernia, 2001
The obturator hernia is an uncommon condition, with clinical manifestations of pain and intestinal obstruction. The preoperative diagnosis is difficult. The treatment is always surgical. There are several repair techniques that have been described: sac ligation alone, direct suture repair, use of autologous tissue or prosthetic repair. We report a case

Evaluation of the Trifecta obturating technique

Dental Traumatology, 2000
Abstract – The aim of this project was to evaluate and compare the radiographic quality and sealability of root fillings in extracted human teeth using lateral condensation of gutta‐percha or the Trifecta obturating system. One hundred freshly extracted human mature, single‐rooted teeth were divided into four identical groups of 25 teeth on the basis ...

A simplified technique for fabricating a lightweight obturator

The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1977
Polyurethane foam was used as a core material in the fabrication of a lightweight obturator. This is a time-saving method of achieving a meaningful reduction in the total weight of a prosthesis while increasing strength and facilitating repair.

Obturator hernia repair – a new technique

Hernia, 2002
Obturator hernia is a rare condition with few reports in the world literature. There appears to be no consensus on the ideal approach and repair for such a condition. We report a simple, quick technique via a lower midline incision using an autogenous peritoneal fold.

Gutta percha obturation techniques

Clinical Techniques in Small Animal Practice, 2001
T h e most common cause of endodontic failure has been ascribed to incomplete obturation. Filling a root canal is intended to prevent microorganisms and toxins in the canal, as well as those present in the oral cavity, from passing along the root canal and moving out into the periradicular tissues. Matsumiya and Kitamura both demonstrated that bacteria

A technique for the fabrication of the open obturator

The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1983
Obturator prostheses are often large and heavy. As an alternative to a lighter hollow obturator, a technique for fabrication of the open obturator has been presented. Use of a removable silicone core facilitates processing, recovery, and polishing of an obturator that is open superiorly.

The sealing ability of the thermafil obturation technique

Journal of Endodontics, 1990
Forty straight canals of maxillary canines and 40 curved canals in 20 mesial roots of mandibular molars were instrumented and randomly assigned to two groups of 40 canals each. For the experimental group, the canals were obturated using the Thermafil obturation technique. Lateral condensation was used for the obturation of the control group.

Comparative Obturation Techniques in the Canine

Journal of Veterinary Dentistry, 1991
Recent technological advances have created new approaches and techniques in endodontics while enhancing traditional criteria. The goal of this article is to present the best aspect of current techniques and materials to enable the practitioner to achieve success in the clinical practice of root canal therapy.

An evaluation of the Thermafil endodontic obturation technique

Journal of Endodontics, 1992
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the Thermafil endodontic obturation technique and to compare it with laterally condensed gutta-percha. Thirty-seven maxillary central incisors were similarly prepared and divided into groups. Seventeen were obturated with Thermafil and 17 with lateral condensation. Three served as controls.
