Item Cyclic fatigue resistance of different continuous rotation and reciprocating endodontic systems.(2016-05) Almeida-Gomes, Fabio de; Matos, Humberto Ramah Menezes de; Nunes, Rodrigo Ferreira Lopes Arrais; Arrais, Ariel Moura; Ferreira-Maniglia, Claudio; Vitoriano, Marcelo de Morais; Gurgel-Filho, Eduardo DiogoObjective: The objective of this study is to compare the cyclic fatigue resistance of nine types of endodontic instruments of nickel–titanium. Materials and Methods: Five files of 25 mm of length of each group: Reciproc (RC) R25; WaveOne (WO) Primary; Unicone (UC) L25 25/0.06; K3XF 25/0.06; ProTaper Universal F2 (PTF2); ProTaper Next X2 (PTX2); Mtwo 25/0.06; BioRaCe 25/0.06; One Shape L25 25/0.06 were subjected to a cyclic fatigue resistance test on a mechanical apparatus. The mean fracture time was analyzed statistically by one-way analysis of variance and Tukey’s honest significant difference post hoc test, with significance set at P < 0.05. Conclusion: It was observed that the groups PTX2, RC, R25, UC L25 25/0.06, and WO Primary presented greater cyclic fracture resistance than the other groups (P < 0.001).Item Ex vivo evaluation of coronal and apical microbial leakage of root canal - Filled with gutta-percha or Resilon/Epiphany root canal filling material.(2010-01) Almeida-Gomes, Fabio de; Maniglia-Ferreira, Claudio; Vitoriano, Marcelo de Morais; Carvalho-Sousa, Bruno; Guimaraes, Nadine Luisa Soares de Lima; Santos, Roberto Alves dos; Gurgel-Filho, Eduardo Diogo; Rocha, Marcia Maria de Negreiros PintoObjective: This ex vivo study compared coronal and apical microleakage of root canals filled with Resilon/Epiphany (RE) or gutta-percha/Grossman sealer (GP), using either lateral condensation (LC) or System B (SB) technique. Materials and Methods: Specimens in eight experimental groups were obturated using the following materials and techniques: Groups 1 and 3 - GP and LC; groups 2 and 4 - GP and SB; groups 5 and 7 - RE and LC; groups 6 and 8 - RE and SB. Apical and coronal leakages were tested using bacterial methods. For coronal analysis, the number of days required for complete contamination of the root canals was recorded according to observation of the brain heart infusion broth turbidity for 15 weeks. For apical analysis, the teeth were cleaved and the leakage was measured at 30 days. Data were collected for each sample and analyzed statistically with the Chi-square and ANOVA tests. Results: Leakage was found in all groups. The difference between filling materials, obturation techniques, and median time of leakage was not statistically significant for coronal ( P=0.847) and apical ( P=0.5789) leakages. Conclusion: There were no differences between the different filling materials (gutta-percha/Grossman sealer and Resilon/Epiphany) and obturation techniques (lateral condensation and system B technique) in coronal or apical leakages.
