Shaping ability of rotary and reciprocating single-file systems in combination with and without different glide path techniques in simulated curved canals [PDF]

Journal of Dental Sciences, 2022
Background/purpose: Glide path management (GPM) is a consequential clinical step that serves to influence predictably successful root canal therapy. However, the effect of GPM on the shaping ability of single-file system remains controversial. This study

Debris extrusion by glide-path establishing endodontic instruments with different geometries

Journal of Dental Sciences, 2016
Background/purpose: Glide-path preparation is an important step during initial endodontic procedure to reduce shaping-instrument fracture. The aim of this study was to evaluate the amount of apically extruded debris produced by glide-path preparation ...

CYCLIC FATIGUE RESISTANCE OF CONTINUOUS ROTATION VERSUS RECIPROCATING GLIDE PATH NICKEL TITANIUM FILES IN ARTIFICIAL S-SHAPED CANALS [PDF]

Alexandria Dental Journal, 2022
Introduction: A secure reproducible glide path is an essential prerequisite for introducing “Rotary nickel titanium” files into a canal. With the rise of engine driven instruments over the past decade, the creation of a Glide path “GP” using “Rotary ...

Irrigation with reduced sodium hypochlorite solution concentration using laser‐induced cavitation is effective and safe in rat intraradicular biofilm model

Australian Endodontic Journal, Volume 49, Issue 3, Page 544-553, December 2023., 2023
Abstract This study aimed to investigate the optimal sodium hypochlorite solution (NaOCl) concentration to effectively remove the root canal biofilm without stimulating periradicular inflammation using coronal laser‐activated irrigation (CLAI). To compare the efficacy of different NaOCl concentrations combined with CLAI in removing the biofilm, an in ...

Present status and future directions: Canal shaping

International Endodontic Journal, Volume 55, Issue S3, Page 637-655, May 2022., 2022
Abstract This narrative review will focus on the evolution, present and future of engine‐driven root canal preparation. Root canal preparation changed drastically when Walia in 1988 introduced the use of nickel‐titanium (NiTi) alloys in Endodontics.

Comparison of Canal Transportation and Centering Ability of One‐G, EdgeGlidePath, and Neolix: A MicroComputed Tomography Study of Curved Root Canals

International Journal of Dentistry, Volume 2021, Issue 1, 2021., 2021
Aims. A glide path is created prior to root canal instrumentation by nickel‐titanium (NiTi) rotary files to increase the efficiency and safety of cleaning and shaping. This study aimed to assess root canal transportation in use of different glide path files in curved canals. Materials and Methods.
