Dentinal crack formation during root canal preparations by the twisted file adaptive, Reciproc and WaveOne instruments

OBJECTIVE This study aimed to compare the frequency of dentinal microcracks after root canal shaping with 2 reciprocating (Reciproc and WaveOne) and 1 combined continuous reciprocating motion twisted files adaptive (TFA) rotary system. MATERIALS AND METHODS Ninety molars were chosen and divided into three groups of 30 each. Root canal preparation was achieved by using Reciproc R25, Primary Wa...

Dentinal microcrack formation during root canal preparations by different NiTi rotary instruments and the self-adjusting file.

INTRODUCTION The purpose of this study was to compare dentinal microcrack formation while using hand files (HFs), 4 brands of nickel-titanium (NiTi) rotary files and the self-adjusting file. METHODS One hundred forty mandibular first molars were selected: 20 teeth were left unprepared and served as control, and the remaining 120 teeth were divided into 6 groups. HFs, HERO Shaper (HS; Micro-Me...

comparison of dentinal crack formation with reciproc, mtwo and protaper root canal preparation systems

conclusions regarding the study limitations, dentinal cracks were observed in all files and distances from the apex. although there was more crack incidence in protaper files, no significant differences were noted regarding the studied systems and sections from the apex. materials and methods in an experimental in vitro trial, 80 maxillary and mandibular first molars were selected and their cro...

Efficiency of the Self Adjusting File, WaveOne, Reciproc, ProTaper and hand files in root canal debridement

OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to compare the canal debridement capabilities of three single file systems, ProTaper, and K-files in oval-shaped canals. MATERIALS AND METHODS Seventy-five extracted human mandibular central incisors with oval-shaped root canals were selected. A radiopaque contrast medium (Metapex; Meta Biomed Co. Ltd., Chungcheongbuk-do, Korea) was introduced into the can...
