description Introduction: Successful periapical surgery requires appropriate root resection, preparation, and adequate sealing.Aim: The aim of the present study was to assess the marginal adaptation of MTA and Biodentine after apical resection with an Er:YAG laser and a diamond turbine bur using a scanning electron microscope (SEM).Materials and methods: The crown part of forty-eight extracted single-root human teeth was removed, and the root canal length of 15 mm was standardized. The root canals were prepared using rotary Ni-Ti Revo-S files up to an apical stop – AS40 and filled with MTA Fillapex and gutta-percha points (cold lateral condensation). The teeth are divided into 2 main groups: group 1 (n=24) after apical resection with a turbine bur, ultrasonic preparation of the retrograde cavity at 3 mm depth and retrograde obturation with Biodentine and MTA; group 2 (n=24) after apical resection with an Er:YAG laser, ultrasonic preparation of the retrograde cavity at a depth of 3 mm and retrograde obturation with MTA and Biodentine. A SEM was used for assessment of the marginal adaptation of the material to the root dentin. The data was entered into and analyzed with IBM SPSS Statistics 22.0.Results: In the group with apical resection with a turbine bur, a statistically significant difference in the gap size between the material and dentin was found in both materials we studied (MTA and Biodentine). The higher mean value was in MTA (1.72 µm), in Biodentine it was 1.08 µm. In the group with apical resection with Er:YAG laser, no statistically significant difference in the gap size between the material and dentin was found in both studied materials: MTA – 1.88 µm, Biodentine – 1.32 µm.Conclusions: In the present study, MTA and Biodentine showed good sealing capabilities after apical resection. Biodentine displayed better marginal adaptation when resecting the root tip using a turbine bur. The Er:YAG laser-assisted apical resection shows sealing of the open dentinal tubules around the resected root surface.
