Since the introduction of nickel titanium (NiTi) to field endodontics, it paved way for fast and reliable root canal instrumentation. Rotary instruments are solely manufactured from NiTi alloy, due its favorable mechanical physical properties such as flexibility cutting efficiency. The main problem with rotary is their high fatigue susceptibility, unexpected incident instrument separation insid...

INTRODUCTION To evaluate the efficacy of NiTi mechanical rotary instrumentation and Hedstrom file for gutta-percha/sealer removal computed tomography (CT) was utilized in vitro. MATERIALS AND METHODS Thirty extracted human single rooted teeth, each with a single canal were selected. The samples were decoronated with a double faced diamond disk to have 17-mm root; teeth roots were instrumented...

INTRODUCTION Oval-shaped canals represent a challenge for rotary nickel-titanium (NiTi) files because buccal and/or lingual recesses are commonly left uninstrumented. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the debridement quality of the Self-Adjusting File (SAF) system in oval canals and compare it with the debridement achieved by a commonly used NiTi rotary system. METHODS A careful sp...

INTRODUCTION Fatigue resistance of ProFile, Vortex Blue, and TRUShape files in artificial single curvature and in 2 different artificial double curvature canals was evaluated. METHODS Three files (ProFile, Vortex Blue [size 20/.06], and TRUShape [size 20/.06v]) were subjected to fatigue tests in a single curvature (group 1: 60° curvature) and 2 different double curvatures (group 2: 60° and 30...

Introduction To evaluate the incidence of microcrack formation canal preparation with two rotary nickel-titanium systems Mtwo and ProTaper Next along with the self-adjusting file system. Materials and Methods One hundred and twenty mandibular premolar teeth were selected. Standardized access cavities were prepared and the canals were manually prepared up to size 20 after coronal preflaring. T...

Nickel-titanium (NiTi) instruments are commonly used for shaping the root canal system in endodontic practice. They are more flexible and have better cutting efficiency than conventional stainless steel files. The superelasticity of NiTi rotary files allows the clinicians to produce the desirable tapered root canal form with a reduced tendency to canal transportation and instrument fracture. Hy...

OBJECTIVE Apical extrusion of debris and irrigants during cleaning and shaping of the root canal is one of the main causes of periapical inflammation and postoperative flare-ups. The purpose of this study was to quantitatively measure the amount of debris and irrigants extruded apically in single rooted canals using two reciprocating and one rotary single file nickel-titanium instrumentation sy...
