Physicochemical properties and interfacial adaptation of root canal sealers.

This study compared the physicochemical properties and interfacial adaptation to canal walls of Endo-CPM-Sealer, Sealapex and Activ GP with the well-established AH Plus sealer. The following analyses were performed: radiopacity, pH variation and solubility using samples of each material and scanning electron microscopy of root-filled bovine incisors to evaluate the interfacial adaptation. Data were analyzed by the parametric and no-parametric tests (α=0.

Sealapex Xpress and RealSeal XT feature tissue compatibility in vivo.

Objective: This study evaluated the response of apical and periapical tissues of dogs' teeth with pulp vitality after root canal filling with the endodontic sealers Sealapex Xpress and Real Seal XT.

Methods: Thirty-eight root canals with vital pulp from dogs' premolars were used. After instrumentation, the canals were filled with Sealapex Xpress and gutta-percha (group SX/GP, n = 16) or Real Seal XT and Resilon cones (group RS/R, n = 22).
