Comparison of apical sealing ability of root canal filling between bioceramic and methacrylate resin sealer
Objectives: Analyze and compare the capability of apical sealing ability of root canal filling between bioceramic and methacrylate resin sealers
Methods: Thirty single root canal teeth were cut in the coronal section, root canal prepared by ProTaper Next. All samples were divided into two groups at random. Group 1 filling of root canals using bioceramic sealer and group 2 with resin-methacrylate sealer. After filling the root canal the apical part was soaked in moisture for 24 hours. Then soaked in chinese ink for 7 x 24 hours. Roots were cut horizontally at 2 mm dan 4 mm from apical. Sealing ability was analyzed by stereo microscopy on 2 mm and 4 mm pieces using 5 scores.
Results: Group 1 with bioceramic sealer showed scor 0 as much as 63.3% while group 2 sealer methacrylate resin only 38.3%. If the two groups are compared, then there is a significant differences.
Conclusions: Apical sealing ability of root canal filling with bioceramic sealer was better than that of a methacrylate-resin sealer.
