ABSTRACT
This study evaluated the increase of the instrumented area and dentin thickness in the mesial and distal aspects of mesial canals of mandibular molars after the use of Gates Glidden (GG), LA Axxess (LA) and Orifice Shaper (OS) instruments. A total of 53 canals from 27 mandibular molars were embedded in resin and divided into 3 groups. The roots were sectioned 3 mm below the cementoenamel junction and the images were captured before and after instrumentation. The increase of the instrumented area in terms of percentages and the remaining dentin thickness, in mm, at the mesial and furcal aspects were calculated using the Image tools software. Data were analyzed using the Kruskal-Wallis and Dunn's test. The significance level was set at 5 percent. All instruments promoted cervical flaring with different amounts of dentin removal at the mesial and distal aspects of the root canals. Statistically significant difference (p<0.05) was found between LA and all other instruments after using the first instrument. Regarding dentin thickness, no significant difference (p>0.05) was found between the mesial and distal walls in all groups. It may be concluded that LA 35.06 and GG 3 burs produced the thinnest dentin walls, and thus their use in mesial canals of mandibular molars should be done with caution.
RESUMO
Este estudo avaliou o aumento da área do canal e a espessura de dentina na parede mesial e distal dos canais mesiais de molares inferiores após o uso de Gates Glidden (GG), La Axxess (LA), Orifice Shaper (OS). Um total de 53 canais mesiais de 27 molares inferiores foram incluídos em resina e divididos em 3 grupos. As raízes foram seccionados 3 mm abaixo da junção cemento-esmalte e as imagens foram capturadas antes e depois da instrumentação. O aumento da área do canal em percentagem e a espessura da dentina remanescente nas paredes mesial e furca foram calculados utilizando o software Image Tools. Os dados foram analisados utilizando o Kruskal-Wallis e teste de Dunn. O Nível de significância foi de 5 por cento. Todos os instrumentos promoveram o aumento da área cervical, com diferentes quantidades de remoção da dentina nas paredes mesial e distal do canal radicular. Diferença estatística (p<0,05) foi encontrada entre LA e todos os outros instrumentos após o uso do primeiro instrumento. Quanto à espessura da dentina, não houve diferença significativa (p>0,05) entre as paredes mesial e distal de todos os instrumentos analisados. O LA 35.06 e GG 3 mostraram a menor espessura da parede e sua utilização em canais mesiais de molares inferiores deve ser feito com cuidado.
