Abstract
This study proposes an intelligent health prediction and fault prognosis of the endodontic file during the root canal treatment. Root canal treatment is the procedure of disinfecting the infected pulp through the canal with the help of an endodontic instrument. Force signals are acquired with the help of a dynamometer during the canal preparation, and statistical features are extracted. The extracted features are selected through the window-wise feature extraction process. Characteristic features for endodontic file prognostics include time-domain features of the signals are evaluated. The extracted feature has inappropriate information, that is, noise between the signals; hence the smoothing of the feature is required at this stage to observe a trend in the signals. Based on the smoothing feature and post-processing of the feature, defined the health index to calculate the health condition of the endodontic instruments. A machine learning algorithm and exponential degradation model are used to predict the health of the endodontic instrument during the root canal treatment. This model is used to forecast the degradation of the endodontic file so that actions can be taken before actual failures happen. The proposed methodology can analyze the failures and micro-crack initiation of the endodontic instruments. Endodontics practitioners can use the machine learning models as well as an exponential model for estimating the health condition of the endodontic instrument. This study may help the clinician to progress the efficiency of the root canal treatment and the competence of the endodontic instruments.

Abstract
This study evaluated the perceived vibration, noise and discomfort levels associated with two nickel-titanium file systems with different kinetics; reciprocating motion (REC) using WaveOne Gold and continuous rotation motion (CON) using ProTaper NEXT. Forty roots with two canals from maxillary premolar and molar of 40 patients were included. Root canals were instrumented using each system for each canal. Patients were surveyed about the vibration, noise and discomfort experienced using visual analogue scale, and their preference. The responses were statistically analysed using Wilcoxon Signed-Rank test, Mann-Whitney U test and Spearman's rank correlation test at the 95% of significance level. The vibration, noise and discomfort experienced were significantly greater in REC than CON (P < 0.05). In REC, male subjects reported significantly higher vibration than female (P < 0.05). Majority respondents (72.5%) preferred the CON method. The perceived vibration, noise and discomfort were less apparent from the CON than the REC.

Abstract
The shaping and cleaning of the root canal are very important in root canal treatment. The excessive force and vibration during biomechanical preparation of the root canal may result in failure of the endodontic file. In this study, force and vibration analysis was carried out during root canal preparation. The samples of human extracted (premolar) teeth were provided by the College of Dental Science and Hospital. Endodontic instruments for reciprocating motion, such as the WaveOne Gold file system, had been used for root canal preparation. Force and vibration signals were recorded by dynamometer and accelerometer, respectively. The acquired signals were denoised using the db4 (SWT denoising 1-D) wavelet. Four levels of decomposition were carried out for each signal. The signal denoising technique was used to remove unwanted noise from the acquired signal. FESEM analysis was used to visualize the levels of severity of endodontic files during the cleaning and shaping of the root canal. In most of the cases, the failure occurred due to the improper use of the root canal instrumentation. The optimum amount of force was used to avoid the file failure and provided the proper instrumentation. The curve fitting regression model was used to find the interdependency between force and vibration.

Abstract
Infection of the tooth's root canal requires what is called root canal treatment (RTC). The most important part of endodontic treatment is to shape the root canal and remove its infected portion using endodontic files of various protocols, kinematics and designs that suit the particular geometry. Cleaning and Shaping the canal efficiently remove the root canal bacterial biofilms or tissue remnants while keeping its natural geometry. The result is determined by shaping the ability of the relevant endodontic file. In the available literature, no norm has been established for the measurement of various endodontic files' ability to do effective shaping. We present in this study a method to analyse and measure the shaping ability of endodontic files of three different kinematics.

Analysis of Torque and Force Induced by Rotary Nickel-Titanium Instruments during Root Canal Preparation: A Systematic Review. APPLIED SCIENCES-BASEL 2021.

Abstract
The aim of this review was to provide a detailed literature analysis of torque and force generation during nickel-titanium rotary root canal instrumentation. We followed Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. An electronic search was performed using in PubMed and in journals for articles published in English from 1987 to June 2020 on studies that investigated dynamic torque and force in vivo or in vitro. We assessed article titles and abstracts to remove duplicates, and the titles and abstracts of the remaining articles were screened for eligibility. Full texts were read to verify eligibility by considering predetermined inclusion and exclusion criteria. Fifty-two out of 4096 studies met the inclusion criteria, from which we identified 26 factors that influence torque or force generation. Factors associated with higher torque or force generation and supported by multiple studies with mostly consistent results included convex triangle cross-sectional design, regressive taper, short pitch length, large instrument size, small canal size, single-length preparation technique, long preparation time, deep insertion depth, low rate of insertion, continuous rotation (torque), reciprocating motion (force), lower rotational speed and conventional alloy. However, several factors are interrelated, which obscured the independent effect of each factor, and there was insufficient scientific evidence supporting the influence of some factors.

[PMID: 33294416 PMCID: PMC7691267 DOI: 10.5395/rde.2020.45.e51] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/24/2020] [Revised: 07/30/2020] [Accepted: 08/04/2020] [Indexed: 12/03/2022] Open
Abstract
Objectives No studies have yet assessed vibration characteristics according to endodontic file length. Accordingly, the objective of the present study was to examine the vibration characteristics according to nickel-titanium file length and to compare these characteristics between different file systems. Materials and Methods A total of 45 root canal models were divided into 3 experimental groups (n = 15 each) based on the file system used (ProTaper Gold [PTG], ProTaper Next, or WaveOne Gold [WOG]). Each experimental group was further divided into 3 subgroups according to file length (21, 25, or 31 mm). An electric motor (X-SMART PLUS) was used in the experiment. For each file system, vibrations generated when using a size 25 file were measured and used to calculate the average vibration acceleration. The differences in vibrations were analyzed using 1-way analysis of variance and the Scheffé post hoc test with a confidence interval of 95%. Results In the PTG file system, significantly lower vibration acceleration was observed when using a 21-mm file than when using a 31-mm file. In the WOG file system, significantly stronger vibration acceleration was observed when using a 31-mm file than when using 21- or 25-mm files. Regardless of the file length, the WOG group exhibited significantly stronger vibration acceleration than the other 2 experimental groups. Conclusions In clinical practice, choosing a file with the shortest length possible could help reduce vibrations. Additionally, consideration should be given to vibrations that could be generated when using WOG files with reciprocating motion.
