Case Reports in Dentistry, Volume 2017, Issue 1, 2017., 2017 Localization of calcified canals has always been a challenge in the field of endodontics. The following report of three cases describes a technique for the identification and negotiation of obliterated canals by use of cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) intraoperatively. Canal orifices could not be found clinically in all three cases.

Evaluation of the Sealing Ability of Three Obturation Techniques Using a Glucose Leakage Test
BioMed Research International, Volume 2017, Issue 1, 2017., 2017 The aim of this study was to evaluate the sealing ability of three different canal filling techniques. Sixty‐four roots of extracted human maxillary anterior teeth were prepared using ProTaper® rotary instruments. The specimens were then randomly divided into 3 experimental groups (n = 16) and 2 control groups (n = 8). The root canals were filled using

The Tubular Penetration Depth and Adaption of Four Sealers: A Scanning Electron Microscopic Study
BioMed Research International, Volume 2017, Issue 1, 2017., 2017 Background. The tubular penetration and adaptation of the sealer are important factors for successful root canal filling. The aim of this study was to evaluate the tubular penetration depth of four different sealers in the coronal, middle, and apical third of root canals as well as the adaptation of these sealers to root canal walls.

The Scientific World Journal, Volume 2013, Issue 1, 2013., 2013 The study was done to assess the sealing ability and adaptation of RealSeal 1, and to compare it with Thermafil. 65 single‐rooted extracted teeth were selected and root canal treatment was performed. Root canals were obturated with RealSeal 1 or Thermafil. A double chamber bacterial leakage model using E.

International Journal of Dentistry, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012 Objective. Comparing effect of different restoration techniques on fracture resistance of compromised roots. Methods. Crowns of 100 single‐rooted teeth were sectioned and 10 roots were kept as negative control group (Group 1). Remaining roots were instrumented and divided into one and positive control group of 10 samples (Group 2) and 4 experimental ...

International Journal of Dentistry, Volume 2011, Issue 1, 2011., 2011 The aim of this study was to compare the cleanliness of root canal walls after retreatment using two rotary retreatment files to hand instruments in severely curved canals obturated with gutta‐percha and two different sealers. Single rooted mandibular premolars (n = 90) with root curvatures were instrumented and obturated with gutta‐percha and an epoxy
