Resilon-Epiphany Obturation System
AbstractFor over hundred years Gutta Percha (GP) has been the most common material used for the obturation of the root canal. GP was the standard with which newer materials were tested. GP fulfills all the characteristics of an ideal root canal filling material, but has a disadvantage of not being able to seal the root canal on its own and requires a ...

Resilon: Review of a New Material for Obturation of the Canal
ABSTRACT Resilon is a thermoplastic synthetic polymer-based endodontic material alternative to gutta-percha. It contains bioactive glass and also radiopaque fillers. It has the same handling properties as gutta-percha. For endodontic retreatment, it may be dissolved with some solvents, such as chloroform or softened with heat.

Comparison between gutta-percha and Resilon retreatment
Retreatment procedures in endodontic practice require complete removal of the original root filling materials. The aim of this study was to compare the amount of residual filling material on the walls of root canals that were obturated with gutta-percha or Resilon. Thirty extracted single-rooted human teeth were selected and instrumented by RaCe rotary

Push‐Out Bond Strength of Experimental Apatite Calcium Phosphate Based Coated Gutta‐Percha
Objectives. To evaluate the push‐out bond strength of experimental apatite calcium phosphate coated gutta‐percha (HAGP) compared to different commercially available coated gutta‐percha root obturation points. Methods. Extracted teeth were selected and instrumented using ProTaper rotary files.

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
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
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.
