Survival and Success of Two Different Filling Techniques
Condition(s) studied
Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)
bioceramic sealer group: epoxy resin based + carrier based technique group. The sealer was inserted in the canal and the carrier was warmed in a dedicated oven (thermaprep) and inserted within 60 seconds.
Study summary
This randomized clinical study analysed the clinical use of a new bioceramic premixed CaSi-containing sealer in association with a warm carrier-based technique or a traditional epoxy resin based sealer.
Methodology: Healthy patients requiring root canal treatments were enrolled. Periapical X-rays were taken preoperatively, after root canal filling and after 1, 6, and 12 and 24 months. Two evaluators assessed the Periapical Index (PAI) and the sealer extrusion. The healing rate and survival rate were also evaluated. Barnard test was used to assess the relationship of each potential prognostic factor with periapical index (PAI) at 12-month follow-up. The significance level was set at 0.05.
