Aim: To evaluate and compare the formation of dentinal defects using hand Hedstrom files, XP-Shaper, TruNatomy, and Reciproc Blue file systems when used for oval shaped root canals.
Materials And Methods: One hundred and five extracted human mandibular premolars with single root and oval canals were selected for the study. Twenty-one teeth were unprepared (control), and the remaining teeth were divided into the prepared groups (n = 21), that is, Group H-Files, Group XP-Shaper, Group TruNatomy, and Group Reciproc Blue.
Aim: The aim of the study is to evaluate and compare the clinical and radiographic outcome of partial pulpotomy and full pulpotomy in mature permanent molars with symptomatic irreversible pulpitis using biodentine.
Materials And Methods: A total of 66 vital mature permanent molars with irreversible pulpitis were randomly allocated to a partial pulpotomy ( = 33) and full pulpotomy group ( = 33). Biodentine was used as a pulp capping material which was covered with resin-modified glass ionomer cement (RMGIC) followed by composite restoration.
Aim: The aim of the study was to evaluate and compare the retreatability of BioRoot RCS and AH Plus sealer with two different retreatment file systems using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) for assessing the filling remnants.
Materials And Methods: A total of sixty mandibular premolars with single and oval root canals were prepared till size F3 and obturated with GP/AH Plus (Group 1) and GP/BioRoot RCS (Group 2). Canals were then retreated using two different retreatment file systems - ProTaper Universal Retreatment (PTUR) system and NeoEndo Retreatment system.
