Article Synopsis
  • The study compared dentinal microcrack formation in human mandibular incisors using hand K files versus different rotary nickel-titanium file systems.
  • Samples included 40 teeth divided into four groups: hand K files, XP-endo Shaper, Neoendoflex file, and Hero Shaper, with the sections analyzed under a scanning electron microscope.
  • Results showed that while all rotary systems except hand K files caused significant microcracks, the XP-endo Shaper resulted in the least amount of damage, indicating that single-file systems may be less harmful to dentin integrity.
