Construction of Standardised Simulated Root Canals in Resin Blocks for Pre-clinical Teaching
نویسنده
چکیده
Simulated canals in clear resin blocks have been widely used in pre-clinical endodontic teaching. The artificial canal provides direct visualisation of procedures in root canal treatment. Stanuardised simulated root canals have been produced in the Faculty of Dentistry, University of Malaya for dental education and research. The canals are easy and inexpensive to construct. An outline of the method of construction of resin simulated canals is presented in this paper.

INTRODUCTION We aimed to compare apical canal transportation of extracted teeth and two types of simulated resin blocks. MATERIALS AND METHODS Mesiobuccal root of extracted maxillary molars, high hardness simulated resin blocks (Knoop hardness=40) and low hardness simulated resin blocks (Knoop hardness=22) were prepared with K-files using step-back technique (n=15 canals in each group). Doubl...
