چکیده

This study compared halothane and chloroform used with hand or ultrasonic instrumentation to remove gutta-percha and sealer from root canals. Apically extruded debris, residual debris, time for filling removal, and amount of solvent used were determined. The differences in extruded apical debris and radiographically visible residual debris were not significant (p greater than 0.05). Ultrasonic instrumentation required significantly less time to remove the root canal filling than did hand instrumentation (p = 0.02). The only significant difference in the amount of solvent used occurred when the ultrasonic-chloroform group was compared with the hand instrumentation-chloroform group (p = 0.05). Halothane was found to be an acceptable alternative to chloroform for removing gutta-percha and sealer from the obturated root canal.

Retrograde instrumentation and obturation with new devices.

Two surgical cases are presented in which retrograde instrumentation of the root canal was accomplished with sonic or ultrasonic instruments. The canals were obturated from a retrograde direction with thermoplasticized gutta-percha and root canal sealer. Success of these treatment approaches is attributed to thorough debridement and satisfactory obturation with equipment only recently available...
