3D-Printed Artificial Teeth: Accuracy and Application in Root Canal Therapy.

Journal of Biomedical Nanotechnology, 2018
This study examined the compatibility of 3D-printed artificial teeth and extracted teeth by combining oral cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) and multi-jet printing technology to print the extracted teeth in vitro.

Chelation in root canal therapy

Oral Surgery, Oral Medicine, Oral Pathology, 1980
The effectiveness of three chelating agents (EDTA, Rc-Prep, and Salvisol) in achieving cleanliness of prepared and unprepared root canal surfaces was evaluated by means of the scanning electron microscope. In unprepared root surfaces Salvisol (solution) has the best chelating effect. In the instrumented group, EDTA was the most effective agent.

Forms of Roots and Root Canals in Endodontic Therapy

Journal of Oral Biosciences, 2009
Abstract Tooth crown to root development has been extensively studied from the viewpoint of both anatomy and embryology. However, development of the root canal system has received little attention. Studies using extracted teeth have revealed the proportions of teeth showing variations in their roots and root canals, the locations of the lateral canal,

Proplast as an apical barrier in root canal therapy

Journal of Endodontics, 1984
Proplast is a felt-like implant of polytetrafluorethylene (Teflon) and carbon. This study investigates its use as an apical barrier to reduce inflammation caused by gutta-percha and zinc oxide root canal sealer. The results of this study indicate that Proplast does not measurably reduce the inflammatory response when compared with conventional filling ...

Provisional coronal preparation to root canal therapy

Journal of Endodontics, 1980
Three prosthetic pre-endodontic aids are discussed: a hollow cast gold post core, for maxillary central incisors and canines; a prefabricated steel tube post core, for mandibular incisors and maxillary lateral incisors; and a ring of gold alloy with retention pins, for molars.

The investigation of microleakage in root canal therapy

Oral Surgery, Oral Medicine, Oral Pathology, 1976
An electrochemical technique employing zero-resistance ammetry is described for evaluating the quantity, rate, and areas permeated in the canal system of a root-filled tooth by 1 per cent potassium chloride. Single-rooted extracted teeth were root-filled by a vertical condensation gutta-percha technique.
