Abstract
Introduction
To assess the effect of combinations of two different endodontic sealers used in initial and endodontic retreatment on the bond strength of the secondary obturation and the penetrability of the sealers.
Methods
Forty-eight mandibular premolars were used, receiving standardized endodontic access and biomechanical preparation. Twenty-four teeth received AH Plus sealer (AHP) in primary obturation and the others received Bio-C Sealer (BCS). Retreatment protocol was performed with an R50 instrument. The samples were further subdivided into four groups (n = 12) based on the combination of primary/secondary obturation sealers: AHP/AHP; AHP/BCS; BCS/AHP; and BCS/BCS. Four samples from each subgroup received the addition of fluorophores to the sealer for penetrability analysis using laser scanning confocal fluorescence microscopy. The root portion on the 8 push-out samples was sectioned into 6 slices of 1.0 mm. Bond strength (BS) was assessed using a universal testing machine until displacement of the filling mass. Failure pattern was evaluated under a stereomicroscope (20× magnification). BS data were analyzed using two-way analysis of variance followed by Tukey's test (P < .05), and the association between the failure pattern and BS value was assessed using the chi-square test (P < .05). Penetrability was qualitatively evaluated.
Results
The highest BS values were observed in the AHP/AHP (4.54 ± 1.5 MPa) and BCS/AHP (5.00 ± 1.0 MPa) groups (P < .05), with a higher percentage of adhesive failures to the filling material for all groups. Laser scanning confocal fluorescence microscopy images indicated greater penetrability of AHP compared to BCS, both in initial treatment and retreatment.
Conclusion
AHP sealer exhibited higher BS and greater penetrability compared to BCS sealer.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Endodontics, the official journal of the American Association of Endodontists, publishes scientific articles, case reports and comparison studies evaluating materials and methods of pulp conservation and endodontic treatment. Endodontists and general dentists can learn about new concepts in root canal treatment and the latest advances in techniques and instrumentation in the one journal that helps them keep pace with rapid changes in this field.
