The aim of this study was to evaluate the physical properties of EndoRez, Diaket, Epiphany, Roekoseal, Fibrefill, GuttaFlow, AHPlus, AH26 to that of a traditional zinc oxide based Kerr PCS sealers. Ten samples of each material were evaluated for flow, radiopacity, solubility and dimensional change tests according to ISO standards 20016876. The findings were statistically analyzed. Radiopacity a...

OBJECTIVES A variety of root canal sealers were recently launched to the market. This study evaluated physicochemical properties, biocompatibility, and sealing ability of a newly launched resin-based sealer (Dia-Proseal, Diadent) compared to the existing root canal sealers (AHplus, Dentsply DeTrey and ADseal, Metabiomed). MATERIALS AND METHODS The physicochemical properties of the tested seal...

OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to evaluate tooth discoloration caused by contact with a novel injectable mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA)-based root canal sealer (Endoseal; Maruchi, Wonju, Korea) compared with a widely used resin-based root canal sealer (AHplus; Dentsply De Trey, Konstanz, Germany) and conventional MTA (ProRoot; Dentsply, Tulsa, OK, USA). MATERIALS AND METHODS Forty sta...

The biodegradability of root canal sealers in areas other than the root canal system is crucial to the overall success rate of endodontic treatment. The aim of the present study was to investigate, the cell and tissue reaction to GuttaFlow and AHPlus, both in vitro and in vivo. For the in vitro experiments the materials were incubated with Human Periodontal Ligament Fibroblasts and cell prolife...

BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to investigate the physical properties and biological effects of an experimentally developed injectable premixed calcium-silicate root canal sealer (Endoseal) in comparison with mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) and a resin-based sealer (AHplus). METHODS The pH, solubility, dimensional change, flow, and radiopacity of the materials were evaluated. Biocompat...

Objective. The present study assessed the chemical elements in two novel calcium silicate-containing root canal sealers, BioRoot RCS and Well-Root ST, compared to a calcium silicate-containing root canal sealer that has been on the market for several years, MTA Fillapex, and epoxy resin-based sealer AHPlus. Material and Methods. The sealers were mixed and manipulated according to the manufactur...
