Summary: | Background: The field of endodontics is dynamic and ever
expanding. With the availability of a wide array of products in
the dental market it is an absolute necessity to evaluate their
efficiency before including them into routine clinical practice.
Hence, the purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of
immediate and delayed post space preparation and sealing
ability of new root canal filling material and sealers.
Aim: The effect of time of post space preparation on the seal
and adaptation of Resilon-Epiphany SE and Gutta-percha-AH
Plus Sealer - A SEM study.
Settings and design: Eighty extracted permanent maxillary
central and lateral incisors selected for the study were
decoronated. Roots canals were prepared and obturated.
Materials and Methods: Samples were divided into four
groups depending on the time of post, space, preparation and
obturated material. GROUP I & II: Immediate and Delayed post
space preparation respectively with Gutta-percha / AH Plus as
obturating material. GROUP III and IV Immediate and Delayed
post space preparation with Resilon / Epiphany as the obturating
material. The samples were sectioned, then measured and
studied by Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM).
Results: There was a significant difference found between
immediate and delayed post space preparation in Resilon
–Epiphany group (p<0.001). Similarly significant difference was
seen between immediate and delayed post space preparation
in AH Plus-GP group (p<0.001). Difference in the adaptation of
the two materials was seen in the delayed group (p = 0.030)
but the immediate group showed no signifcant difference (p
=0.971).
Conclusion: Within the limitations of this study, immediate
post space preparation shows less leakage in both the groups.
Resilon–Epiphany shows better results when post space is
delayed amongst the two whereas in immediate post space
preparation there is no significant difference. |
