Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to compare the shaping ability of different instruments, TruNatomy Glider (TRN-G), WaveOne Gold Glider (WOG-G), and ProGlider (Pro-G) using micro-computed tomography (micro-CT). METHODS The mesial canals of 27 mandibular molars with two separate mesial canals and moderate curvature were included in this study [n = 27 mesiobuccal (MB) and mesiolingual (ML) root canal]. According to the manufacturer's instructions, the glide path was created with TRN-G, WOG-G, and Pro-G glide path instruments (n = 9 MB and ML root canal in each group). Micro-CT scanning was performed before and after preparation. Mesiodistal (MD) and buccolingual (BL) transportation and the centering ratio were measured at three levels within the canal (3, 5 and 7 mm). A three-way robust ANOVA was used to compare the parameters. RESULTS TRN-G showed significantly greater transportation in the MD direction than the other instruments throughout the root canal (overall root canal) (p < 0.05). The best centering ability in the BL direction was shown by the WOG-G, regardless of level within the canal and canal distinction (MB vs. ML) (p < 0.05). There was no significant difference between groups according to the level within the canal and canal parameters (p > 0.05). Whether the root canal was MB or ML did not affect centering or transportation (p > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Glide path instruments can be used to shape moderately curved canals with minimal apical transportation and better centering ability. All three tested glide path files can used safely before the shaping file.

Effect of Additional Apical Preparation on Retreatment of Curved Root Canals Filled with Different Sealers. Eur J Dent 2023; 17:636-641.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study assessed the influence of additional apical preparation on material removal during retreatment of curved root canals filled with different sealers. MATERIALS AND METHODS Twelve mesial roots of mandibular molars with two separate canals and curvature between 25 and 35 degrees were selected. The working length was established 1-mm short of the apical foramen, and all the root canals were prepared using ProDesign R (PDR) 25/0.06. After preparation, the root canals were divided in two groups (n = 12) and filled by continuous wave condensation technique with NeoMTA Plus or AH Plus. All the root canals were retreated using rotary ProDesign Logic RT 25/0.08, reciprocating PDR 25/0.06 and apical preparation with PDR 35/0.05. Additional apical preparation was performed with ProDesign Logic (PDL) 50/0.01. The samples were scanned using a Skycan 1176 micro-computed tomography (micro-CT), voxel size 8.74 µm, before and after the retreatment procedures. Percentages of remaining filling material were evaluated. STATISTICAL ANALYSIS The data were submitted to paired and unpaired t-tests (α = 0.05). RESULTS Percentage of remaining filling material was similar between the root canals filled with NeoMTA Plus or AH Plus sealer after retreatment using PDR 35/0.05, and after additional apical preparation using PDL 50/0.01 (p > 0.05). However, PDL 50/0.01 significantly decreased the percentage of remaining filling material in the apical third after the additional apical preparation for both sealers (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION NeoMTA Plus or AH Plus did not influence the retreatment of curved root canals. ProDesign Logic 50/0.01 promoted greater filling material removal in the apical third.

Abstract
Background This in vitro study aims to compare rotary files (Fanta and Zuanba) with manual K files according to the amount of dentin removed and canal transportation in primary mandibular second molars by CBCT images. Methods This experimental study was conducted on 60 extracted human second primary molars. That were divided into three groups according to root canal preparation group "I" instrumented with manual K-files, group "II" instrumented with rotary Fanta files, and group "III" instrumented with rotary Zuanba files. After root canal preparation, teeth were scanned before and after mechanical preparation with CBCT scanner. Then the amount of dentin removed was determined at three levels, including the coronal, middle and apical levels. Data were statically analysed using the Kruskal–Wallis test. Result No statistically significant difference in the amount of dentin removed were noted between the manual and the rotary groups at the coronal and apical RC levels (P = 0.420) and (P = 0.819) respectively but significant difference was noted at the middle third (P = 0.043). Regarding RC transportation, no significant difference was noted among the three groups with the exception of the apical RC level (P = 0.043). Conclusion Although no significant differences were noted between rotary and manual files, the rotary files showed better performance.

Effect of kinematics on the torque/force generation, surface characteristics, and shaping ability of a nickel titanium rotary glide path instrument: an ex-vivo study. Int Endod J 2022; 55:531-543. [PMID: 35263803 DOI: 10.1111/iej.13718] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/30/2021] [Revised: 03/01/2022] [Accepted: 03/01/2022] [Indexed: 11/30/2022]
Abstract
AIM To evaluate the effect of various rotational motions on the torque/force generation, surface wear, and shaping ability of the ProGlider glide path instrument (Dentsply Sirona). METHODOLOGY Mesiobuccal and mesiolingual canals of mandibular molars were selected based on the canal volume, length, angle of curvature (25°-40°), and radius of curvature (4-8 mm) after micro-computed tomographic scanning. The samples were randomly assigned to four groups (n = 13, each) according to movement kinematics [continuous rotation (CR; 300 rpm), optimum torque reverse motion (OTR; 180° forward and 90° reverse when torque > 0.4 N·cm), time-dependent reciprocal motion (TmR; 180° forward and 90° reverse), and optimum glide path motion (OGP; a combination of 90° forward, 90° reverse, 90° forward, and 120° reverse)]. Instrumentation was performed with an automated root canal instrument and torque/force analysing device. Maximum torque/force values, canal volume changes, and canal-centring ratios at 1, 3, 5, and 7 mm were evaluated. Surface defects (pits, grooves, microcracks, blunt cutting edges, and disruption of cutting edges) and spiral distortion on the ProGlider instrument were scored at the tip and 5 mm short of the tip before and after five consecutive uses with scanning electron microscopy. The Kruskal-Wallis test followed by Dunn's post-test with Bonferroni correction and Wilcoxon signed-rank test were used to analyse the data (α = 0.05). RESULTS OGP generated significantly less clockwise torque and greater upward force than other groups (P < 0.05). OGP resulted in significantly fewer surface defects than CR (P < 0.05). In OGP and CR, the tip exhibited more surface defects than 5 mm short of the tip (P < 0.05). CR resulted in greater volume changes than OGP and TmR (P < 0.05) and greater centring ratios (i.e., more deviation) than OGP at 1 mm and OTR at 3 mm (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Under laboratory conditions using the ProGlider instrument, OGP generated significantly less clockwise torque and greater upward force than the other rotatory motions. OGP generated fewer superficial defects than CR, and the three modes of reciprocal rotation better maintained the apical curvature of root canals than CR with the ProGlider instrument.
