Objective: The aim of this study is to evaluate the accuracy of Root ZX in determining working length in presence of 2% chlorhexidine and 5% sodium hypochlorite. Material and Methods: Thirty extracted, single rooted, single canal human teeth were used. Teeth were decoronated at CEJ and actual canal length determined. Then working length measurements were obtained with Root ZX in presence of 2% ...

OBJECTIVES The aim of this in-vitro study was to compare the accuracy of two new electronic apex-locator controlled handpieces (EALHs) using the first rotary Mtwo file while rotating in the canal. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 36 extracted mandibular molar teeth were selected. The lengths of the mesio-buccal canals to the major foramina were measured directly using a size 10 K-file introdu...

OBJECTIVES This study compared the ability of several techniques to remove calcium hydroxide (CH) from the root canal and determined the influence of CH residues on the accuracy of the electronic apex locator. MATERIALS AND METHODS Root canals of 90 human maxillary lateral incisors with confirmed true working length (TWL) were prepared and filled with CH. The teeth were randomly assigned to o...

OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to investigate the ability of two NiTi rotary apical preparation techniques used with an electronic apex locator-integrated endodontic motor and a manual technique to create an apical stop at a predetermined level (0.5 mm short of the apical foramen) in teeth with disrupted apical constriction, and to evaluate microleakage following obturation in such prepare...
