Aim: This study was designed to investigate the effect of different final irrigation protocols on apical sealing ability bioceramic and epoxy resin-based sealers.
 Materials methods: Thirty human single-rooted mandibular premolars were instrumented using ProTaper Next rotary files. Teeth randomly divided into three groups according regimen; Group I: 5 ml 0.2% CNPs/3 min, II: 2.5 CNPs/1.5 m...

The role of angiotensin II (All) in pressor hyperresponsiveness was examined in conscious one-kidney, one clip rabbits with renal artery stenosis 01 3-days' duration (renal prehypertensive rabbits). Conscious one-kidney rabbits without renal artery stenosis served as controls. Two experiments were performed. The first experiment used four groups of six rabbits each, to examine the pressor respo...

This study examines the cytotoxicity of Super-Bond C&B (SB-C&B), Super-Bond RC Sealer (SB-RC), MetaSEAL (Meta), and AH Plus Sealer (AH+). Freshly mixed and set materials (100 mg) were prepared in vitro and placed in cell culture medium (1 mL) for the working time and for 6 h, respectively. L929 cells seeded into 96-well plates at 5,000 cells/well were incubated with the eluted medium (200 µL) f...

BACKGROUND Smear layer is a negative factor which prevents adhesion of the filling material to the dentinal walls. Recent advances in dental research have incorporated lasers as a potential adjunct in root canal treatment by removing the smear layer before filling the root canal system, enhancing the adhesion of sealers to dentin and improving the sealing ability. AIM To evaluate the microten...

Background: The objective of three-dimensional obturation is to completely seal the canal system from any bacterial ingress from the oral cavity and periradicular tissues. The aim of the study to compare the push-out bond strength of the smart seal C-point obturating system with epiphany resilon obturation system and the gold standard gutta-percha/AH plus system. Materials and Methods: Thirty e...

(AH Plus, Endomethasone N, EndoSequence BC, MTA Fillapex and Pulp Canal Sealer EWT) using a three-dimensional (3D) cell culture model. A conventional bi-dimensional (2D) cell culture model was used as reference technique for comparison. Balb/c 3T3 fibroblasts were cultured in conventional bi-dimensional cell culture and in rat-tail collagen type I three-dimensional cell culture models. Then, bo...

The aim of the present study was to evaluate influence ultrasonic activation (UA) on setting time and flow four endodontic sealers: AH Plus (AH), Sealer (SP), MTA Fillapex (MTAF), BioRoot RCS (BIO). Properties were evaluated as required by ANSI/ADA Specification N° 57 (2008); only size specimens modified. UA applied using a smooth tapered tip coupled piezoelectric device (30% power) freshly mix...

Secondary aqueous humor (2 degrees AH) is known to contain elevated levels of serum macromolecules and has been shown to stimulate the proliferation of lens epithelial cells both in vivo and in vitro as well as corneal endothelial cells in vitro. The purpose of this study was to characterize the response of bovine corneal endothelial cells to 2 degrees AH from rabbits and to compare the effect ...
