Comparison of debris extruded apically and working time used by ProTaper Universal rotary and ProTaper retreatment system during gutta-percha removal

Abstract: ObjectiveThe aim of this study was to evaluate the in vitro action of ProTaper retreatment files and ProTaper Universal in the retreatment of mandibular premolars. Material and methodsThe amount of debris extruded apically was measured and the time to reach the working length and to complete the removal of gutta-percha was observed. Thirty teeth had their canals prepared using ProTaper Universal files and were obturated by the single cone technique. The teeth were then stored at 37ºC in a humid environment for… Show more

“…It uses Eppendorf tubes to store the extruded debris, and it is reliable, simple, and reproducible. Other methodologies might be used to measure debris extrusion including collecting and weighing paper filters (29), an aluminum crown (30), an acrylic resin container (31), and a Durapore filter (3M, St Paul, MN) (32).…”

“…The debris apically extruded during the primary and secondary canal treatment has often been reported (11,(13)(14)(15)18,(22)(23)(24). However, to the best of our knowledge, there is no study evaluating the cytotoxicity of the debris apically extruded during the endodontic retreatment.…”

“…No retreatment method removes the root fillings completely (4)(5)(6)13,18,21,22). It is virtually impossible to obtain a completely clean canal space regardless of the technique used.…”

“…However, it is known that filling removal can lead to extrusion of debris and cause periapical inflammation, flare-ups or failure of apical healing (5). Different amounts of extruded debris have been reported, depending on the instrumentation technique and the design of instruments (5)(6)(7)(8)(9)(10)(11)(12).…”
