| Summary: | Aim: The aim of this study was to compare the shaping ability
of two different rotary Nickel –Titanium (Ni-Ti) files, One shape
file and Twisted files in a simulated artificial canals.
Materials and Methods: A total of 40 endodontic training blocks
were used in this study and divided in two groups consisting of
20 each ( n = 20) and the shaping ability was accessed based
on the left over ink stain in the artificial canal.
Results: Image proplus analysis software and stereomicroscope
were used for analysing the shaping ability of the files and
statistical analysis was done by SPSS software. Twisted files
showed better shaping ability compared to one shape file both
experimentally and statistically.
Conclusion: It can be concluded that twisted files shaped the
canals better then one shape file. |
