RESUMEN

INTRODUCTION: To compare the stress produced on the walls of simulated canals by rotary instruments with varied tip and taper sizes. METHODS: Ninety isotropic transparent blocks, each containing a 60-degree curved canal, were distributed into 18 groups (n = 5) based on the instrument tip (sizes 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, and 35) and taper (sizes 0.02, 0.04, and 0.06). The blocks were fixed in a circular polariscope setup for dark field analysis. A digital camera was employed to capture the real-time birefringence patterns generated by each instrument. Digital image frames, corresponding to the instrument reaching the end of each canal third, were extracted and evaluated by 2 independent observers for the stress generation on canal walls. The data analysis employed a semi-quantitative scale ranging from 0 to 5. Cohen's Kappa coefficient test was used to determine the inter-observer agreement while the results were compared using Kruskal-Wallis test followed by an all-pairwise posthoc procedure (α = 5%). RESULTS: Inter-observer agreement was 0.95. A significant influence of the tip size on stress was observed across the coronal (P = .011), middle (P = .006), and apical (P = .026) thirds. In contrast, taper size did not affect the stress induced at the coronal (P = .509), middle (P = .958), or apical (P = .493) thirds. The variations in tip and taper sizes did not result in a significant stress differences among the thirds (P = .181). CONCLUSIONS: The stress significantly increased across all canal thirds with larger tip sizes of rotary instruments, whereas the taper sizes did not influence the stress when compared to the canal thirds.

RESUMEN

AIM: The aim of this study is to compare the stress produced on the internal walls of simulated canals by nine rotary and four reciprocating systems. METHODOLOGY: Sixty-five isotropic transparent blocks containing a 60° curved and tapered simulated canal were selected and distributed into 13 groups (n = 5) according to the preparation system: BioRace, HyFlex EDM, iRaCe, Mtwo, One RECI, ProTaper Next, RaCe EVO, Reciproc, Reciproc Blue, R-Motion, VDW.ROTATE, XP-Endo Rise Shaper, and XP-Endo Shaper. Each resin block was mounted in a vice and a digital camera recorded the entire sequence of each preparation system through a circular polariscope set for dark field analysis. The video frames when each instrument reached the end of the coronal, middle, and apical thirds of the canal were extracted from the recordings and analysed by two independent observers regarding the stress generated on the canal walls using a semi-quantitative evaluation on a 0-5 scale. Intra- and inter-observer agreement were subjected to the Cohen's Kappa coefficient test, whilst the experimental results were compared using Kruskal-Wallis test post hoc pairwise comparisons with Bonferroni correction (α = 5%). RESULTS: The inter- and intra-observer agreement were 0.98 and 1, respectively. Most instruments demonstrated acceptable performance (scores ≤ 2) in all thirds. Other instruments, such as the HyFlex EDM 25.12 (coronal and middle thirds), Reciproc Blue R25 and Reciproc R25 (coronal and apical thirds), R-Motion 30.04 (apical third), and VDW.ROTATE 20.05 (apical third) showed scores higher than 3. Statistical analysis revealed a significant difference amongst the tested systems at the coronal, middle, and apical thirds (p < .05). CONCLUSION: None of the canal instrumentation protocols were stress-free, showing varying levels of stress concentrations. Various factors seemed to influence the magnitude of stress and its distribution pattern on the canal walls. Overall, instruments characterized by a larger taper, lower speed, reciprocating motion, and made of heat-treated NiTi alloy exhibited higher patterns of stress distribution.

RESUMEN

Shaping ability evaluation of taper ./01 instruments in large root canals, by microcomputed tomography (micro-CT) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Maxillary central incisors with large diameter root canals were divided into two groups (n = 10): XP-Endo Shaper (FKG-Dentaire, Switzerland) and manual instrumentation (FKG-Dentaire). Two- and three-dimensional parameters from cervical to apical root thirds were evaluated by micro-CT. Apical stop was evaluated by SEM images. Data were analysed by ANOVA and Tukey tests (α = 5%). XP-Endo Shaper allowed a regular biomechanical preparation with less dentinal wear compared with manual instrumentation, which showed excessive wear of the thin root canal walls (p < 0.05). Roundness and SMI showed similarity between both protocols (p > 0.05). XP-Endo Shaper SEM showed a regular and well-defined shape of the apical foramen suggesting the formation of the apical stop. Reduced diameter and taper instruments promoted a conservative wear and a well-defined apical stop formation in large root canals.

RESUMEN

AIM: To evaluate the shaping ability of several heat-treated nickel-titanium systems used to prepare root canals with moderate and severe curvature, in extracted mandibular molars, by micro-computed tomography, considering their variation in kinematics and design. METHODOLOGY: Curved-mesial roots of mandibular molars were randomly selected and assigned into 4 balanced experimental groups (n = 10), established by determining homogeneous 3D parameters of volume and surface area: R-Motion (RM) size 30, 0.04 taper (RM; FKG Dentaire), Reciproc Blue (RCB) size 25, 0.08 taper (RCB; VDW GmbH), HyFlex CM (HFX) size 30, 0.04 taper (HFX; Coltène Whaledent) and XP-endo Shaper size (XPS) 30, 0.01 taper (XPS; FKG Dentaire). The volume of irrigation was established at 10 ml of 2.5% NaOCl. Throughout the entire root canal preparation procedures, the samples were fixed in a vice submerged in a container with water monitored at 37°C. Dimensional cross-sectional measures of area, perimeter, roundness, major/minor diameters and 3-dimensional (volume, surface area, structure model index - SMI) parameters as well as the smallest dentine thickness along the cervical and middle root thirds were evaluated by micro-CT. Data were analysed using analysis of variance and post hoc Tukey tests (α = 5%). RESULTS: Reciproc Blue and XPS had significantly greater mean increases in cross-sectional area measurements, only in the middle third, when compared with RM and HFX (p < .05). RM, RCB and XPS had a similar increase in measurements of length and width of perimeter (p > .05), and HFX had significantly lower mean increases in perimeter values only when compared with XPS (p < .05). RCB and XPS had significantly greater mean increases in volume when compared with RM and HFX (p < .05). RM had a significantly lower difference in SMI after preparation, compared with RCB, HFX and XPS (p < .05). The smallest dentine thickness was observed after the use of RCB (p < .05), in the danger and safety zones. CONCLUSIONS: XP-endo Shaper and RM had a shaping ability similar to that of instruments with larger tapers, achieved with less dentine removal in danger and safe zones in curved-mesial canals of extracted molar teeth treated on a laboratory benchtop.
