Abstract Although mineral trioxide aggregates (MTA) have been adopted as an endodontic sealer because of excellent sealing effect and bioactive property modified with improvement its characteristics, the developed MTA sealers not yet satisfied all ideal requirements sealers. The aim this study was to assess characteristics elastin-like polypeptide (ELP)-incorporated for use compare them those c...

Aim: The aim of the study was to compare the fracture resistance of endodontically treated teeth obturated with gutta percha using four different root canal sealers (MTA Fillapex, AH plus, Real Seal SE and Tubli Seal). Materials and methods: Sixty freshly extracted single rooted human mandibular premolar teeth were used. After standardizing the root length to 14 mm, the teeth were chemo mechani...

Since the setting characterization of a root canal sealer has an impact on its biological behavior final obturation, this study evaluated mineral trioxide aggregate MTA-Fillapex versus MTA-Bioseal compared with epoxy resin (Adseal) sealers. Freshly mixed was inserted into mold (n = 10). The initial and times were using Vicat needle then statistically analyzed by one-way ANOVA at p < 0.05. ra...

introduction: the main goal of endodontic treatment is elimination of bacteria and their by-products from infected root canals. this study compared the antibacterial effect of two different sealers, ah 26 and mta fillapex, on 4 microorganisms 24, 48 and 72 h and 7 days after mixing. methods and materials: the microorganisms used in this study consisted of lactobacillus acidophilus ( atcc 4356),...

INTRODUCTION This study aimed to evaluate the dentine-sealer interface in three different sealers using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). METHODS AND MATERIALS Thirty extracted human single-rooted teeth were prepared using ProTaper rotary files and were randomly divided into three groups (n=10) including BC Sealer, AH-Plus and Dorifill. The root canals were filled with cold lateral condensa...

BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to compare the sealing ability of MTA Fillapex, Apatite Root Canal Sealer and AH26 sealers. MATERIAL AND METHODS The present in vitro study was carried out on 142 extracted single-rooted human mature teeth. The teeth were randomly divided into three experimental groups (n=44) and two control groups (n=5). Three root canal sealers were MTA Fillapex, Apa...

Background. Further studies on the adhesion properties of MTA-based materials seem necessary due to their growing use in endodontic treatment. This research aimed to assess the effect of retreatment on the bond strength of MTA-based (MTA Fillapex) and epoxy resin-based (AH Plus) sealers. Methods. ProTaper rotary files were applied to prepare the root canals of 80 human mandibular premolars. The...
