introduction: the aim of this study was to compare several metallurgic properties of neoniti instrument with four other commonly used endodontic rotary files. methods and materials: neoniti a1 (25/0.08), race (25/0.06), mtwo (25/0.06), twisted file (25/0.06) and protaper next x2 (25/0.06) were examined by differential scanning calorimetry (dsc) before and after heat treatment at 500 ° c. x-ray ...

introduction: the aim of this in vitro study was to compare the effect of hand and rotary instruments on fracture strength of tooth roots. materials & methods: thirty two teeth were randomly divided into two experimental groups of 15 each and one negative control group with two samples. in group 1, step-back technique with conventional stainless steel k-files was used, and in group 2, instrumen...

The change from steerable motor to rotary steerable system has been both technically and commercially successful in Lybia. Through these case histories the paper will demonstrate benefits resulting from the use of rotary steerable systems that have led to a step change in overall drilling performance in the Middle East. This paper describes the successful introduction and application of a rotar...

The effect of the ultrasonic surface rolling process (USRP) on the rotary bending fretting fatigue (FF) of Ti-6Al-4V alloy was investigated. The reason for the USRP's ability to improve the FF resistance of Ti-6Al-4V alloy was studied. The results revealed that the USRP induced a compressive residual stress field with a depth of 530 μm and a maximum residual stress of -930 MPa. Moreover, the su...

apical extrusion of debris and irrigants during cleaning and shaping of the root canal is one of the main causes of periapical inflammation and postoperative flare-ups. the purpose of this study was to quantitatively measure the amount of debris and irrigants extruded apically in single rooted canals using two reciprocating and one rotary single file nickel-titanium instrumentation systems.sixt...

AIM The aim of this study was to measure the increase in root canal surface area and canal transportation after biomechanical preparation at 1, 3, and 5 mm short of the apex with three different rotary systems in both continuous rotary and reciprocating rotary motions. MATERIALS AND METHODS Sixty freshly extracted human mandibular molars with mesial root canal curvatures between 20° and 30° w...
