Abstract:This study evaluated the effect of filling technique and rotational speed on the efficacy of sealer cement placement using the Lentulo spiral filler. Cadaveric maxillary and mandibular canine teeth (n = 74) from age and breed matched fresh-frozen adult canine cadaver heads were utilized. Following routine mechano-chemical preparation, teeth were randomly divided into 8 treatment groups with varying rotational speeds [250–2,000 revolutions per minute (RPM)] and fill techniques (backfill technique versus pumping… Show more
