Abstract
Background/purpose
The success of root canal treatments is influenced by the shape of the access opening and the outcomes of root canal enlargement. The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of various rotary instruments on the maintenance of the root canal's central alignment post shaping, considering a range of access cavity designs.
Materials and methods
Using digital tooth simulation, 4 sets of 12 teeth underwent traditional (TradAC) or conservative (ConsAC) access cavity preparations. Root canals were enlarged with TruNatomy or ProTaper Ultimate rotary instruments. Canal transportation and centering ratio were separately measured. Statistical analysis was performed using JMP trial 17 software.
Results
The analysis revealed no significant difference in buccal and lingual canal transportation among different rotary instruments or canal enlargement designs (P > 0.05). TradAC yielded higher centering ratios in MB and ML canals, while ConsAC excelled in the distal canal for the TruNatomy group. Conversely, in the ProTaper Ultimate group, ConsAC demonstrated higher ML canal ratios (P < 0.05).
Conclusion
TruNatomy maintained superior canal centering with ConsAC, while ProTaper performed better with TradAC.
期刊介绍:
he Journal of Dental Sciences (JDS), published quarterly, is the official and open access publication of the Association for Dental Sciences of the Republic of China (ADS-ROC). The precedent journal of the JDS is the Chinese Dental Journal (CDJ) which had already been covered by MEDLINE in 1988. As the CDJ continued to prove its importance in the region, the ADS-ROC decided to move to the international community by publishing an English journal. Hence, the birth of the JDS in 2006. The JDS is indexed in the SCI Expanded since 2008. It is also indexed in Scopus, and EMCare, ScienceDirect, SIIC Data Bases.
The topics covered by the JDS include all fields of basic and clinical dentistry. Some manuscripts focusing on the study of certain endemic diseases such as dental caries and periodontal diseases in particular regions of any country as well as oral pre-cancers, oral cancers, and oral submucous fibrosis related to betel nut chewing habit are also considered for publication. Besides, the JDS also publishes articles about the efficacy of a new treatment modality on oral verrucous hyperplasia or early oral squamous cell carcinoma.
