Abstract
The purposes of the study were to evaluate the influence of the sealer’s chemical composition on the interfacial strength between root canal dentin and root filling material, for two different classes of endodontic sealers, and to assess their failure modes. Methods: Forty extracted single-rooted teeth were randomly divided into four groups using the following endodontic sealers: RealSeal SE and Resilon (RSSE); EndoSequence BC sealer and BC Point (EBCS); Endoseal MTA and gutta-percha (EDS); Bioroot RCS and gutta-percha (BRS). Teeth were embedded in acrylic resin, and the roots were sectioned horizontally into 1 mm slices. For each slice, the perimeter was measured. A push-out test was performed using an Instron universal testing machine. For each sample, bond strength was calculated. Specimens were examined by SEM investigation in order to analyze the dentin−sealer−core interface. Results were assessed using analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Tukey and Bonferroni test. Results: Statistical analysis revealed that EDS and gutta-percha had significantly higher resistance to dislodgement compared to the other three groups (p < 0.05). EBCS and BC Point showed significantly greater push-out bond strength values compared to RSSE and Resilon (p < 0.05). Conclusions: Bioceramic endodontic sealers showed a higher bond strength to root dentin than methacrylate resin-based endodontic sealer.

Time-lapse submicrometer particle motion reveals residual strain evolution and damaging stress relaxation in clinical resin composites sealing human root canals. Acta Biomater 2022; 140:350-363. [PMID: 34740856 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2021.10.052] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/20/2021] [Revised: 10/27/2021] [Accepted: 10/28/2021] [Indexed: 11/20/2022]
Abstract
Polymer based composites are widely used for treatment, for example as biofilm resistant seals of root canal fillings. Such clinical use, however, fails more frequently than other dental composite restorations, due to stress-related misfits. The reason for this is that the biomaterials used are inserted as viscous masses that may bond to the substrate, yet shrinkage stresses arising during setting of the cross-linking polymer, work against durable adhesion. Here we combine phase contrast enhanced time-lapse radiography (radioscopy), digital image correlation (DIC) and submicrometer resolution phase-contrast enhanced microtomography (PCE-CT), to reveal the spatial and temporal dynamics of composite polymerization and strain evolution. Radioscopy of cavities located in the upper part of human root canals demonstrates how the composite post-gelation "densification" is dominated by viscous flow with quantifiable motion of both particles and entrapped voids. Thereafter, these composites enter a "stress-relaxation" stage and exhibit several structural adaptations, induced by residual shrinkage stresses. Consequently critical alterations to the final biomaterial geometry emerge: (i) entrapped bubbles expand; (ii) microscopic root filling pull-out occurs; (iii) the cavity walls deform inwards, and (iv) occasionally delamination ensues, propagating out from the root canal filling along buried restoration-substrate interfaces. Our findings shed new light on the interactions between confined spaces and biomedical composites that cross-link in situ, highlighting the crucial role of geometry in channeling residual stresses. They further provide new insights into the emergence of structural flaws, calling attention to the need to find new treatment options. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: This work quantifies recurring spatial and temporal material redistribution in composites used clinically to fill internal spaces in teeth. This knowledge is important for both promoting biomaterial resistance against potentially pathologic biofilms and for improving structural capacity to endure years of mechanical function. Our study demonstrates the significant role of geometry and the need for improved control over stress raisers to develop better treatment protocols and new space filling materials. The use of high-brilliance X-rays for time-lapse imaging at submicrometer resolution provides dynamic information about the damaging effects of stress relaxation due to polymerization shrinkage.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the sealing ability and bond strength of AH Plus sealer associated with the hybridization protocol of radicular dentin with Scotchbond Multi Purpose (SB). MATERIALS AND METHODS Ninety palatal roots of maxillary molars were selected and divided into three groups (n = 30) according to filling protocol (G1, AH Plus/Resilon; G2, SB/AH Plus/Resilon; and G3, AH Plus/Gutta-Percha). In groups in which AH Plus + resin cones were used, dentin was hybridized before applying sealing material. For the bond strength test, 60 roots of bovine teeth were selected. Six holes were made in each root, two in the cervical, middle and apical third of the root. The roles were filled with AH Plus sealer with or without an adhesive system and submitted to push out test and the fracture mode was examined using a stereomicroscope (×32). RESULTS Statistical analysis showed that ScotchBond Multi Purpose (SB) + Resilon cone + AH Plus group promoted higher sealing ability than the gutta-percha + AH Plus group (p < 0.05). Bond strength was lower with SB application than without it (p < 0.05). A reverse correlation was found between bond strength and sealing ability. The fracture mode methodology revealed 22.77% of adhesive, 11.67% of cohesive and 65.55% of mixture fractures for SBMP/AH Plus protocol, whereas the AH Plus protocol indicated 86.11% of cohesive and 13.89% of mixed fractures. CONCLUSION It was concluded that the use of the adhesive system Scotchbond Multi Purpose improved coronal sealing ability of AH Plus, but bond strength of sealer was reduced when adhesive was applied.

Abstract
Background and aims. An ideal root canal filling material should completely seal the entire root canal space and block communication between the root canal system and its surrounding tissues; it should also be nontoxic, noncarcinogenic, non-genotoxic, biocompatible, insoluble in tissue fluids and dimensionally stable. Bonding to dentin is a promising property, which can prevent leakage and improve the sealing ability of root canal filling materials. Resilon was developed and rec-ommended initially because the existing rootcanal filling materials did not bond to root canal dentin. Since its introduction in 2004, numerous reports have been published regarding various aspects of this material. The aim of this literature review is to present investigations regarding Resilon's physical and chemical properties and leakage studies. Materials and methods. A review of the literature was performed by using electronic and hand searching methods for Resilon from May 2004 to April 2012. Results. There are many published reports regarding Resilon. The searchshowed that Resilon is composed of a parent polymer, polycaprolactone or Tone, which is a biodegradable aliphatic polyester, with filler particles consisting of bioactive glass, bismuth oxychloride and barium sulfate. It possesses some antibacterial and antifungal properties. It is a promising material for root canal filling. Despite the presence of numerous case reports and case series regarding these applications, there are few designed research studies on clinical applications of this material. Resilon has some drawbacks such as high cost. Conclusion. Resilon seals well and is a biocompatible material. However, more clinical studies are needed to confirm its efficacy compared with other materials.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The purpose of this in vitro study was to assess the influence of MetaSEAL and AH Plus on the resistance to vertical root fracture of endodontically treated teeth when either the matched-taper single-cone or lateral condensation technique was used. METHODS Ninety extracted single-canal mandibular premolar teeth were sectioned, leaving a standard root length of 13 mm. The buccolingual and mesiodistal diameters were measured, and the teeth were randomly divided into 6 groups (n = 15). There were no statistically significant differences between the groups in terms of the diameters. In group 1, no instrumentation or obturation was performed. The rest of the roots were chemomechanically prepared with nickel-titanium ProTaper rotary instruments up to size F3 at the working length. Group 2 was left unobturated. Groups 3 and 4 were obturated with AH Plus used with the matched-taper single-cone and lateral condensation techniques, respectively. In groups 5 and 6, MetaSEAL was used instead of AH Plus. All of the roots were mounted vertically in self-curing acrylic resin blocks that exposed 8 mm of the coronal part. Then the roots were subjected to a vertical loading force (1 mm/min). The force required to produce a fracture was recorded in newtons. The data were analyzed by using Kruskal-Wallis and post hoc Dunn multiple comparison tests (P < .05). RESULTS Although we did not detect statistical significance, there was a substantial difference between the fracture resistance values of the intact and instrumented but not obturated roots. The groups in which AH Plus and MetaSEAL were used with the matched-taper single-cone technique showed significantly higher fracture resistance values than the instrumented but not obturated roots (P < .05). There were no significant differences between the groups submitted to the matched-taper single-cone technique. The force required to fracture the roots in the group treated with AH Plus and the lateral condensation technique was similar to that required to fracture intact roots, whereas the group treated with MetaSEAL and the lateral condensation technique revealed comparable values to the instrumented but not obturated roots. CONCLUSIONS When used with the matched-taper single-cone technique, MetaSEAL and AH Plus have the potential to reinforce endodontically treated teeth.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION In this study we evaluated the cytotoxic effects of MetaSEAL, a 4-META-containing meth-acrylate-based endodontic sealer, on human periodontal ligament (HPDL) fibroblasts. There are a limited number of studies on the cytotoxic effects of MetaSEAL, and there are no studies on the cytotoxic effects of MetaSEAL on cells it might come into contact with in vivo. METHODS MetaSEAL concentrations of 25, 50, 100, 200, 400, and 800 μg/mL were exposed to HPDL fibroblast cultures and evaluated at 1, 3, 7, 14, and 21 days. Controls included untreated cells and cells treated with ethanol, the vehicle for MetaSEAL suspension. Crystal violet staining in 24-well plates and the fluorescence-based CyQUANT Cell Proliferation Assay in 96-well plates assessed fibroblast viability. RESULTS Significant cytotoxicity against HPDL growth by MetaSEAL was both time- and concentration-dependent. At day 1 there were no significant cytotoxic effects, whereas by day 3, 800 μg/mL concentration, by day 7, 200, 400, and 800 μg/mL concentrations, and by day 14, 50, 100, 200, 400, and 800 μg/mL concentrations were significantly cytotoxic. By day 21, all concentrations were significantly cytotoxic. These findings were confirmed by both the crystal violet and CyQUANT assays. CONCLUSIONS MetaSEAL endodontic sealer has increasing HPDL cytotoxicity with both concentration and time exposure.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION There have been varied results from studies comparing postendodontic fracture resistance between teeth obturated with Resilon or gutta-percha. This study was performed to evaluate the fracture resistance of roots obturated by using Resilon (RealSeal system) or gutta-percha (with AH Plus sealer). METHODS Eighty extracted human mandibular single-rooted premolars stored in 10% formalin were used in the study. They were prepared by using a crown-down technique, debrided with NaOCl, ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid, and sterile water and divided into 4 groups. Obturation was performed by using the lateral condensation method. The negative control group consisted of unfilled specimens, and the positive control group consisted of those obturated with flowable, dual-cure composite resin. All root specimens were stored for 2 weeks in 100% humidity to allow complete setting of the sealer. Each specimen was mounted in acrylic in a polyvinyl ring and tested for fracture resistance with the Universal testing machine. The loading fixture of the machine was mounted with its spherical tip aligned with the center of the canal opening of each root. A vertical loading force was applied until it fractured the root. The force values were subjected to statistical analysis including analysis of variance and Fisher least significant difference testing. RESULTS Teeth obturated with Resilon were more resistant to fracture than those obturated with gutta-percha. The difference was found to be highly significant (P=.00001). CONCLUSIONS Resilon increased the resistance to fracture of single-rooted teeth in vitro.
