Change in the pulp chamber temperature with different stripping techniques.

Background: The aim of this study is to evaluate the change in pulp chamber temperature during the stripping technique.

Methods: Seventy-eight proximal surfaces of 39 extracted human teeth were stripped by two techniques: double-sided perforated stripping disk (PSD) and handheld stripper (HS). The teeth were divided into three groups: incisors (group 1), premolars (2), and molars (3).
