introduction: one of the most important reasons for postoperative pain is the extrusion of debris from the apical foramen during preparation and shaping of root canals. the aim of this clinical trial was to evaluate the severity of postoperative pain with the use of two different engine-driven niti systems. methods and materials: ninety mandibular molars were randomly divided into two groups ( ...

objectives: the purpose of this study was to evaluate the resistance to fatigue failure of five different nickel-titanium rotary files in three different curved trajectories. materials and methods: a total of 150 neoniti a1, race 25.06, mtwo 25.06, twisted file 25.06 and protaper next x2 files with the tip size of 25 were tested (n=30 for each group). three groove types simulating curved canals...

introduction: this study investigated the fatigue and fracture modes of race and protaper rotary instruments. materials & methods: fatigue resistance was evaluated by rotating the files 30 ° or 60 ° and with 2 or 5mm radius of curvature. race taper 06 size 25 and protaper f1 files (n=40) were used. the number of rotations to failure was analyzed by two-way anova and independent sample     t-tes...

AIM The aim of the present study was to electrochemically evaluate corrosion resistance of RaCe and Mtwo files after repeated sterilization and preparation procedures. STUDY DESIGN A total of 450 rotary files were used. In the working groups, 72 files from each file type were distributed into 4 groups. RaCe and Mtwo files were used to prepare one root canal of the mesial root of extracted hum...

introduction: the aim of this study was to compare several metallurgic properties of neoniti instrument with four other commonly used endodontic rotary files. methods and materials: neoniti a1 (25/0.08), race (25/0.06), mtwo (25/0.06), twisted file (25/0.06) and protaper next x2 (25/0.06) were examined by differential scanning calorimetry (dsc) before and after heat treatment at 500 ° c. x-ray ...

introduction: the aim of the present in vitro study was to evaluate the efficacy of d-race, protaper retreatment kit and hand h-files in removal of obturating materials (om) from the curved root canals using cone-beam computed tomography (cbct). materials and methods: sixty extracted molars were prepared and obturated. the samples were divided into three groups ( n =20). in each group the om wa...

introduction: retreatment is performed in teeth with unsuccessful root canal therapy or persistent apical lesion. the most important factor for achieving successful retreatment is thorough cleaning and reshaping. niti files and rotary instruments are widely used for the removal of obturatants. this study compared the ability of mtwo and d-race retreatment systems to remove residual gutta-percha...

Background and Aim:Root canal preparation with rotary instruments may cause dentinal cracks leading to tooth fracture. The aim of this study was to compare three different rotary systems ProTaper, RaCe and Niti Tee on formation of dentinal cracks following root canal preparation. Materials and Methods: In this experimental study, 50 extracted mandibular first molars were selected. Teeth having ...
