Bioceramic sealers have improved sealing ability by forming an interfacial apatite layer that chemically bonds the sealer and radicular dentin thus decrease apical leakage. This study aims to evaluate and compare the apical leakage of Cerafill RCS bioceramic sealer and gutta percha when used with three different obturating techniques. Thirty-four extracted single-rooted premolars were decoronated and prepared up to size F3. Then, the specimens were randomly divided into 3 experimental groups (n = 10) cold lateral obturation technique, warm vertical obturation technique, single-cone obturation technique, positive and negative control groups (n = 2), according to the obturation technique used along with a bioceramic sealer. To evaluate apical leakage, all specimens were mounted in a glucose leakage model and assessed at 7 and 14 days using an ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometer. The results were subjected to ANOVA/Kruskal–Wallis ANOVA; followed by post hoc analysis using Bonferroni correction. Significant differences were found in the cumulative leakage of all the three experimental groups. Significantly higher leakage was found in groups obturated using single-cone obturation technique as compared to warm vertical compaction technique at both 7 and 14 days. Warm vertical compaction showed a better sealing result than single-cone obturation techniques at all observation periods.

The antimicrobial potential of conventional medicaments is reduced due to their limited permeability. The use of calcium hydroxide (CH) is known to reduce the root strength. Nano intracanal medicaments have the following advantages over conventional such as higher surface area and chemical reactivity, and due to its nanosize, have better penetrability, supporting its possible use as an intracanal medicament. Nano versions of CH, chitosan (CS), CS + CH, curcumin (T), and its conventional forms are used in our study. The aim of this study was to evaluate and compare the depth of penetration of nanosized intracanal medicaments and their effect on fracture resistance of root dentin. Eighty extracted single-rooted teeth were used after decoronation. Canals were enlarged up to size 30 (0.04° taper) using Neoendo instruments (Orikam, India). Teeth were randomly assigned to two broad groups based on the type of intracanal medicament used; Group A: control (conventional) (n = 40) and Group B: nanosized intracanal medicaments (n = 40). Each group was subdivided into four experimental groups (n = 10), Group A1: CH, Group A2: CS, Group A3: curcumin (T), Group A4: CS + CH, Group B1: nano calcium hydroxide (NCH), Group B2: nano CS (NCS), Group B3: nano curcumin (NT), and Group B4: NCS + nano calcium hydroxide (NCS + NCH). All the specimens were stored in a humidor at 37°C for 4 weeks. Out of 10 specimens from each group, five specimens were used for evaluating the depth of penetration using a confocal laser scanning electron microscope, and the remaining five specimens were used for evaluating fracture resistance in a universal testing machine at the end of 4 weeks. Data were analyzed using one-way ANOVA and intergroup comparison using Tukey’s post hoc multiple comparison test. The highest fracture resistance was seen with NCS and the maximum depth of penetration with nano calcium hydroxide (NCH). The fracture resistance and depth of penetration at a 4-week interval were higher in nano forms compared to their micro-sized counterparts with all groups. The coronal section presented the highest depth of penetration of intracanal medicaments followed by the middle and least in the apical section of root dentin with all groups.

TwinKleen™ and Triton™ are newer all-in-one irrigants that have simultaneous action on both organic and inorganic contents. Studies comparing their tissue dissolving ability (TDA) either at room temperature (RT) or on prewarming (PW) and continuous warming (CW) are not yet reported. To evaluate and compare the effect of 3% sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl), Twin Kleen™, and Triton™, on the bovine TDA. One hundred and twenty tissue specimens (size 4 mm × 4 mm × 2 mm and weight 37 ± 3 mg) were divided into Group 1, normal saline (negative control); Group 2, 3% NaOCl (positive control); Group 3, Twin Kleen™; and Group 4, Triton™ (n = 30) Each group is further divided into three subgroups with ten samples each as sub group a – at room temperature (RT), sub group b – on pre warming (PW) and sub group c– on continuous warming (CW), Tissue specimens were immersed in test tubes with 5 ml of respective irrigants replenished thrice every 15 min. The percentage difference in tissue weights was calculated after 5, 10, and 15 min. Multiple intergroup comparisons were done using Tukey’s multiple-comparison test, using SPSS software version 23.0. Both Triton™ and 3% NaOCl showed significantly higher dissolution than normal saline and Twin Kleen™ on CW followed by PW than at RT. Twin Kleen™ showed significantly less dissolution at all the tested temperatures. Heating enhances the TDA of Triton™ and 3% NaOCl but not Twin Kleen™. CW showed significantly higher dissolution than PW.

Endodontic microsurgery in tandem with advanced radiographic techniques has led to the emergence of guided surgeries. Preservation of the cortical bone to enhance the healing and stabilization of tissues surrounding the tooth of concern can now be facilitated by bone cement used in the field of orthopedics. This case report details a guided endodontic surgery technique in 17 years old where a traumatic infliction leads to a phoenix abscess. The technique elaborated emphasizes on the three-dimensional printing of a surgical template with the help of cone-beam computed tomography, followed using a medical-grade bone cement in the most minimal manner to reposition the buccal cortical bone. A 12-month-old follow-up revealed the patient to be asymptomatic with a flawless periapical region radiographically. This case testifies that the optimum use of available biomedical material in surgical endodontics can assure a predictable prognosis.

Endodontic infections have been clearly described as biofilm-mediated infections. Bacteria and their by-products have been known to cause these infections. With the introduction of new drugs and the use of nanoparticles in recent times, there has been a significant reduction in the bacterial load in endodontic infections. The in vitro study focuses on checking the antibacterial efficacy of silver nanoparticles and its combination with other medicaments against the root canal pathogen – Enterococcus faecalis (E. faecalis). In the present study, 140 extracted human teeth were used. The teeth were sectioned, and biomechanical preparation was done. The root canals of the extracted teeth were inoculated with the culture of E. faecalis. The teeth were divided into six groups based on the intracanal medicament used: Group 1 – Silver nanocure gelGroup 2 – Silver nanocure gel + Cavisept gel (1:1)Group 3 - Silver nanocure gel + Aveu-Cal gel (1:1)Group 4 – Silver nanocure gel + Cavisept gel + Aveu-Cal gel (1:1:1)Group 5 - Positive control (specimens were inoculated with Enterococcus faecalis and left untreated to confirm the presence of infection)Group 6 - Negative control (no bacterial contamination of specimens). The colony-forming units were recorded after 48 h of incubation. The statistical analysis of the colony-forming units was done using the Kruskal–Wallis tests. Silver nanocure gel + Cavisept gel + Aveu-Cal gel (1:1:1) showed the least colony-forming units. The present study is an in vitro study, in which we concluded that the combination of all the intracanal medicaments is the best for the elimination of E. faecalis biofilm from the root canal. The above findings need to be tested in vivo also.

The study aimed to assess the remineralizing potential of four different commercially available agents using a Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) analysis, and Vickers Microhardness (VMH) Test. Forty-four specimens (n = 11 per group) were prepared from extracted teeth. A window of 6 mm × 4 mm was made on all the specimens that represented three zones, namely, sound enamel, demineralized enamel, and remineralized enamel. The zone for demineralized enamel was subjected to four different remineralizing agents; casein phosphopeptide-amorphous calcium phosphate fluoride (CPP-ACPF), tricalcium phosphate fluoride (TCP-F), calcium sucrose phosphate (CSP), and self-assembling peptide (P11-4). Remineralization (REM) was assessed using VMH; the structural changes were assessed using SEM that was analyzed using EDX analysis. The specimens were subjected to a newer regimen of demineralization. One-way ANOVA followed by post hoc Tukey test was used with a level of significance at P ≤ 0.05. There were no significant differences in VMH between the groups for sound enamel (P = 0.472) and demineralized enamel (P = 0.116). VMH was statistically significantly more for P11-4 and the least for CPP-ACPF (P = 0.011). A post hoc analysis revealed higher VMH for P11-4 compared to CPP-ACPF (P = 0.014) and TCP-F (P = 0.035). SEM showed a homogeneous layer of minerals for all groups except CPP-ACPF. TCP-F reported a higher degree of REM, followed by P11-4 as assessed using EDX analysis. Self-assembling peptide (P11-4) exhibited a higher degree of REM than other remineralizing agents followed by CSP.

An endodontic treatment is considered a success after thorough chemomechanical debridement coupled with obturating root canals in a concrete way thereby providing hermetic seal. Gutta-percha being nonadherent necessitates use of a sealer to achieve hermetic seal. Adequate adhesion of root canal sealer with gutta-percha core and radicular dentin ensures lack of apical leakage. Sixty extracted mandibular premolars with single root canal decoronated at cementoenamel junction were selected and randomly allocated to two groups (n = 30). Samples in Group 1 were prepared with BT Race file, while Group 2 samples were prepared with BT Race alongwith XP Endo file. Absorbent paper points were used for canal drying and samples were randomly divided into six subgroups. In Subgroup I, obturation was done with bio-ceramic (BC) sealer (Endosequence BC) and BC gutta-percha. In Subgroup II, resin-based (AH plus) sealer and gutta-percha were used. In Subgroup III, calcium hydroxide-based (Sealapex) sealer and gutta-percha were used. Sectioning of root samples was done perpendicularly into coronal, middle, and apical segments of 3 mm each. A universal testing machine was used for sample testing, in which push-out bond strength corresponded to the highest value obtained. Stereomicroscopic (×20) study of the samples determined the failure mode at dentin/sealer/main cone interface. Analysis of variance and post hoc Tukey’s tests were used for data analysis. Endosequence BC with XP-Endo files showed the highest mean push-out bond strength (16.31 MPa), whereas Sealapex without XP-Endo file had the lowest values (12.76 MPa). Mixed failure of adhesive and cohesive mode was observed for most samples. Adjunctive irrigation agitation technique utilizing XP-Endo Finisher facilitates biofilm eradication from difficult niches in root canals, thereby improving adhesion of sealer and subsequently the sealer bond strength.
在彻底的化学机械清创后,再以具体的方式将根管闭合,从而达到密封的效果,这样的根管治疗才算成功。由于根管胶不具有粘附性,因此需要使用封闭剂来实现密封。根管封闭剂与水门汀核心和根尖牙本质的充分粘合可确保根尖不渗漏。 我们选择了 60 颗拔出的下颌前磨牙,它们的单根根管在牙本质-牙釉质交界处装饰,并随机分配到两组(n = 30)。第一组使用 BT Race锉,第二组使用BT Race锉和XP Endo锉。使用吸水纸点干燥牙管,并将样本随机分为六个亚组。在子组 I 中,使用生物陶瓷(BC)封闭剂(Endosequence BC)和 BC 牙胶进行封闭。子组 II 使用树脂基(AH plus)封闭剂和牙胶。子组 III 使用氢氧化钙基(Sealapex)封闭剂和古塔波卡。将根部样本垂直切成冠状、中间和根尖段,每段 3 毫米。使用万能试验机对样本进行测试,其中推出粘接强度与获得的最高值相对应。样品的立体显微镜(×20)研究确定了牙本质/封闭器/主锥体界面的破坏模式。 数据分析采用方差分析和事后 Tukey 检验。 使用 XP-Endo 锉刀的 Endosequence BC 显示出最高的平均推出粘接强度(16.31 兆帕),而不使用 XP-Endo 锉刀的 Sealapex 的值最低(12.76 兆帕)。大多数样本都出现了粘合和内聚模式的混合失效。 利用 XP-Endo Finisher 的辅助灌洗搅拌技术有助于根管中难以清除的龛位中的生物膜,从而提高封闭剂的附着力,进而提高封闭剂的粘接强度。

Gutta-percha being nonadherent necessitates use of a sealer to achieve hermetic seal. Adequate adhesion of root canal sealer with gutta-percha core and radicular dentin ensures lack of apical leakage.\u0000 \u0000 \u0000 \u0000 Sixty extracted mandibular premolars with single root canal decoronated at cementoenamel junction were selected and randomly allocated to two groups (n = 30). Samples in Group 1 were prepared with BT Race file, while Group 2 samples were prepared with BT Race alongwith XP Endo file. Absorbent paper points were used for canal drying and samples were randomly divided into six subgroups. In Subgroup I, obturation was done with bio-ceramic (BC) sealer (Endosequence BC) and BC gutta-percha. In Subgroup II, resin-based (AH plus) sealer and gutta-percha were used. In Subgroup III, calcium hydroxide-based (Sealapex) sealer and gutta-percha were used. Sectioning of root samples was done perpendicularly into coronal, middle, and apical segments of 3 mm each. A universal testing machine was used for sample testing, in which push-out bond strength corresponded to the highest value obtained.
