introduction: the purpose of this study was to evaluate the sealing ability of 3 obturation techniques in oval-shaped canals by bacterial leakage assessment. methods: sixty mandibular incisors with oval canals were selected after providing buccolingual and mesiodistal radiographs. the teeth were sectioned at a 10 mm distance from the apex. after instrumentation, the teeth were divided into 3 gr...

We introduce two generalized condensation principles: Local Club Condensation and Stationary Condensation. We show that while Strong Condensation (a generalized Condensation principle introduced by Hugh Woodin in [19]) is inconsistent with an ω1-Erdős cardinal, Stationary Condensation and Local Club Condensation (which should be thought of as weakenings of Strong Condensation) are both consiste...

statement of problem: when a tooth is treated endodontically, there are several objectives, which must be met for the root canal therapy to be successful. one of those objectives is the complete obturation of the root canal system. purpose: the purpose of this study was to evaluate the apical sealability of the theramfil endodontic obturation technique and compared it with lateral condensation....

Molecular dynamics simulations have been carried out to investigate the onset of surface condensation. On surfaces with different wettability, we snapshot different condensation modes (no-condensation, dropwise condensation and filmwise condensation) and quantitatively analyze their characteristics by temporal profiles of surface clusters. Two different types of formation of nanoscale droplets ...

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 ...
