چکیده
The objective of this research was to evaluate, in vitro, the importance of the correct manipulation of endodontic sealers, correlating it with flow rate and with the consequent obturation of root canals. Twenty-four human canines were prepared, 1 mm from the apex, with K-files up to size 50, by means of the step-back technique. Six lateral canals were then drilled in each tooth, with size 10 file fixed to a low-speed handpiece. The teeth were randomly divided into 4 groups, and root canals were obturated either with the Endométhasone sealer or Grossman sealer, prepared at ideal or incorrect clinical consistency. After obturation by means of the lateral condensation technique, the teeth were radiographed and evaluated as to the number of sealed lateral canals. Statistical analysis revealed significant differences (p < 0.001) between the tested sealers, and indicated the higher capacity of the well-manipulated Grossman sealer to fill lateral canals. It can be concluded that the flow rate of a sealer and its correct manipulation are very important for the satisfactory obturation of lateral canals. UNITERMS: Dental cements; Zinc oxide-eugenol cement; Physical properties; Endodontics. RESUMO: O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a importância da correta manipulação dos cimentos endodônticos à base de óxido de zinco-eugenol, correlacionando-a com o escoamento e a conseqüente obturação do sistema de canais radiculares. Vinte e quatro caninos humanos foram preparados a 1 mm do ápice anatômico com limas tipo K (“step-back”, lima de memória número 50). Seis canais laterais artificiais foram confeccionados em cada dente, por meio de uma lima número 10 acoplada a um motor de baixa rotação. Os dentes foram divididos aleatoriamente em 4 grupos e obturados com Endométhasone ou cimento de Grossman, em uma consistência clínica ideal e outra incorreta (excesso de eugenol). Após a obturação, pela técnica da condensação lateral, os dentes foram radiografados e avaliados quanto ao número de canais laterais obturados. A análise estatística revelou diferenças significantes (p < 0,001) entre os cimentos testados, indicando uma maior capacidade do cimento de Grossman bem manipulado em obturar canais laterais. Conclui-se que o escoamento de um cimento, bem como sua correta manipulação, são extremamente importantes para a obturação satisfatória do sistema de canais radiculares. UNITERMOS: Cimentos dentários; Cimento de óxido de zinco e eugenol; Propriedades físicas; Endodontia.

This in vivo study evaluated the sealing ability of a resin-based sealer (AH Plus) and a zinc oxide-eugenol sealer (Endofill) in dogs' teeth, exposed to the oral environment for 45 and 90 days. Forty eight lower incisors from 8 dogs were endodonticaly treated. A stratified randomization determined the sealer use in each root canal. All canals were filled using the lateral condensation technique...

The efficacy of ultrasonic retreatment, 3 months after obturation, in conjunction with Ketac-Endo, Roth's 801, and AH26 sealers was evaluated. Seventy-two root canals were prepared and obturated with gutta-percha and one of the sealers mentioned above. After 90 days, the canals were retreated by an ultrasonic technique and the retreatment time was recorded. The roots were split and the amount o...
