introduction : the aim of this study was to examine and compare the apical sealing ability of ah26, ah plus and ah plus jet using a fluid filtration model. materials and methods : 70 single-rooted teeth were dissected from the cement-enamel junction. canals were prepared with protaper rotary system and manual k files and irrigated with 5.25% naocl and 17% edta. ten teeth were assigned as contro...

objective: the aim of this study is to measure the effect of different condensation pressure on the microleakage of mineral trioxide aggregate (mta).  methods: this study was an invitro study. a total of 55 single rooted straight-canal human extracted sound teeth free of cracks or calcification were selected. teeth were sectioned from cej region at 3 mm above the root apex. remaining specimens ...

a series of n-substituted-2,4-thiazolidinedione derivatives (tzds) were prepared via n-alkylation of 2,4-tzd at position 3 using substituted benzyl halides. synthesized n-substituted-2,4-tzd was then substituted at position 5 with substituted aromatic aldehyde according to knoevenagel condensation method. structures of the compounds were elucidated using various spectral techniques viz. ir, 1hn...

the nanoparticles of ti and tio2 have attracted extensive research interest because of their diverse applications in, for instance, catalysis, energy conversion, pigment and cosmetic manufacturing and biomedical engineering. through this project, a one-step bulk synthesis method of electromagnetic levitational gas condensation (elgc) was utilized for the synthesis of monodispersed and crystalli...

synthesis and characterization of 6-(hydroxymethyl)-14, 16-dimethyl-13, 14, 16, 17-tetrahydro-6h-13, 17-epiminodibenzo [e, l] [1, 4] dioxacyclotridecin-15 (7h)-oneabstractnew 6-(hydroxymethyl)-14, 16-dimethyl-13, 14, 16, 17-tetrahydro-6h-13, 17-epiminodibenzo [e, l] [1, 4] dioxacyclotridecin-15 (7h)-one (2a) was synthesized in good yield by the petrenko–kritchenko reaction of 2, 2'-((3-hydroxyp...

schiff base sal-2,5-clan = 2-(2,5-dichlorobenzylideneamino)phenol used as a new precursor for preparation of poly-2-(2,5-dichlorobenzylideneamino)phenol (pdcbap). in an aqueous alkaline medium, naocl oxidant is capable of oxidative poly-condensation reaction (op). both sal-2,5-clan and pdcbap were characterized by solubility tests, ft-ir, 1h-nmr spectroscopy and tg-dta studies. ft-ir and 1h-nmr...

background: the final objective of root canal therapy is to create a hermetic seal along the length of the root canal system. for this purpose, many methods and materials have been introduced. the purpose of this study was to compare the apical microleakage in a new obturation technique (true-tug-back) with two other obturation techniques (lateral condensation and chloroform dip technique). met...

Aim: To compare bacterial leakage in root canals obturated with the modified single-cone, lateral condensation, and continuous wave of condensation techniques. Methods: Distobuccal root canals of maxillary molars were shaped up to ProTaper F2 and obturated with modified singlecone, lateral condensation or continuous wave of condensation technique. Two-chamber bacterial model using Enterococcus ...
