“…Creating a glide path can prevent these mishaps (de Carvalho et al . ). Several recent studies showed that the use of NiTi pathfinding rotary files are more effective than hand files in achieving a glide path with minimal mishaps (Berutti et al .…”

“…Simulated artificial canals are different in terms of microhardness when compared to root dentin, and the effects created by heat generation during instrumentation can affect the instruments’ cutting blades [36]. Ever since CBCT was introduced in dentistry, it has been widely recognized as an accurate, noninvasive tool that allows quantitative and qualitative three-dimensional evaluation of root canals [30, 32, 37]. In the present study, CBCT image technology was used to evaluate canal transportation and centering ability following root canal preparation with different rotary and reciprocating instruments.…”

Introduction:The aim of this study was to evaluate, using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT), transportation and centralization of different nickel-titanium (NiTi) rotary instruments.Methods: One hundred and twenty eight mandibular premolars were selected and instrumented using the following brands of NiTi files: WaveOne, WaveOne Gold, Reciproc, ProTaper Next, ProTaper Gold, Mtwo, BioRaCe and RaCe. CBCT imaging was performed before and after root canal preparation to obtain measurements of mesial and distal dentin walls and calculations of root canal transportation and centralization. A normal distribution of data was confirmed by the Kolmogorov-Smirnov and Levene tests, and results were assessed using the Kruskal-Wallis test. Statistical significance was set at 5%. Results:ProTaper Gold produced the lowest canal transportation values, and RaCe, the highest. ProTaper Gold files also showed the highest values for centering ability, whereas BioRaCe showed the lowest. No significant differences were found across the different instruments in terms of canal transportation and centering ability (P > 0.05).Conclusion: Based on the methodology employed, all instruments used for root canal preparation of mandibular premolars performed similarly with regard to canal transportation and centering ability.

“…Studies conducted on curved root canals of extracted teeth also yielded similar results. [2132] Although the difference was not statistically significant, de Carvalho et al . [21] reported better centering ability when PathFile instruments were used before another single reciprocating NiTi instrument (25/.08) compared with that in the absence of glide path creation.…”

“…[2132] Although the difference was not statistically significant, de Carvalho et al . [21] reported better centering ability when PathFile instruments were used before another single reciprocating NiTi instrument (25/.08) compared with that in the absence of glide path creation. They stated that the values observed in the no glide path group indicate a decreased ability of the reciprocating instrument to adhere to the central axis of the root canal, thus demonstrating the instrument's tendency to not follow the original canal path when a glide path is not created.…”

Objectives:The aim was to compare the shaping ability of WaveOne reciprocating files with or without glide path in simulated curved S-shaped root canals.Materials and Methods:Forty ISO #15, 0.02 taper, clear resin Endo Training Bloc-S blocks were studied. The simulated curved S-shaped canals were dyed using ink, preinstrumentation images were scanned, and resin blocks were prepared and divided into Group A: PathFile and WaveOne and Group B: WaveOne. All canals were postoperatively scanned. Pre- and postoperative images were superimposed and evaluated at 12 defined measuring points. The efficacy of the systems was compared based on the amount and direction of canal transportation, centering ability, amount of material removed, and presence of canal aberrations. Mann–Whitney U-test and independent t-test were used for statistical comparison.Results:Both systems produced transportation at all levels and straightened the curved S-shaped canals. No significant differences in the amount and direction of transportation and amount of material removed were observed between the groups at each level (P > 0.05). However, Group A had significantly greater centering ability at the coronal straight zone (P = 0.018) and apical curvature (P = 0.014) levels than did Group B. Moreover, Group B showed more canal aberrations than did Group A.Conclusion:Within the limitations of the present study, the creation of a glide path with the PathFile system improved the centering ability of the WaveOne reciprocating file in the apical and straight coronal portions of the simulated curved S-shaped root canals and reduced the incidence of canal aberrations.

Apical Transportation, Centering Ability, and Cleaning Effectiveness of Reciprocating Single-file System Associated with Different Glide Path Techniques

Abstract: The different glide path techniques promoted minimal apical transportation, and the reciprocating single-file system tested remained relatively centralized within the root canal. Also, the different techniques interfered in the cleaning effectiveness of the reciprocating system.
