Background: The aim of this study was to evaluate the rate of apical microleakage following the fracture of five types of nickel-titanium rotary file systems (ProTaper Universal, Mtwo, RaCe, Revo-s, HeroShaper) in the apical one-third of the canal.
Materials And Methods: In this laboratory experiment, 49 mandibular premolars were collected and randomly divided into seven groups. Root canal treatment was performed by five different rotary file systems with different cross-sections. All files, except in the control groups, were scratched at the 3-mm end by a handpiece. After separation of the apical end of the file in the root canal, the apical seal was measured, using the fluid infiltration technique. Data were analyzed in SPSS, using one-way ANOVA and Tamhane's T2 tests at < 0.05.
Results: The Hero Shaper and RaCe files showed the highest (3.14 μL/min) and the lowest (2.51 µL/min) rates of microleakage over time, respectively. There were significant differences between the Hero Shaper and RaCe files and between Hero Shaper and ProTaper files in terms of microleakage (Tamhane's T2 tests, < 0.05).
Conclusion: The presence of a separated file and its cross-section type affects the apical microleakage.

Statement Of The Problem: Root canal preparation with rotary files causes dentinal cracks in root canals of primary teeth affecting their longevity.
Purpose: Nickel-titanium rotary files have been widely used for root canal preparation in primary teeth. The present study compared occurrence of dentinal microcracks in root canals of extracted primary molar teeth prepared using Hedstrom (H) files, ProTaper Universal rotary files, and ProTaper Next rotary file systems.

Introduction: Adding a compatible chelator to the sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) solution applied during instrumentation may affect shaping efficacy and canal transportation. This was studied in simulated double-curved root canals.
Methods: High-precision computer numerical control milling was used to recreate standardized S-shaped canals from a resin training block in longitudinally sectioned bovine incisor roots.

Objective: The present study aimed to evaluate the effect of heat-treated nickel titanium (NiTi) files TruNatomy and XP- Endo Shaper on the major apical foramen deformation and enlargement in curved root canals using area, circularity, and Feret's diameter ratio.
Methods: Sixty mesio-buccal roots of maxillary and mandibular molars with Vertucci type II root canal were selected. The teeth were decoronated using a carborundum disc.

Objective: This double-blinded randomized clinical trial aimed to compare postoperative pain using 2Shape® (TS) in rotary (TSRot) and adaptive (TSAK) kinematics in the maxillary and mandibular molars in patients with symptomatic irreversible pulpitis and symptomatic apical periodontitis following single-visit endodontic treatment.
Methods: Seventy patients were randomly assigned to two groups (TSRot /TSAK), (n=35 each). The preoperative and postoperative pain intensities at various time intervals up to 72h using a Visual-Analogue Scale was noted.

Background: Root canal shaping is an important phase in endodontic treatment to preserve the integrity of root structures. This clinical study used cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) to assess the shaping ability of Tornado compared to WaveOne (WO), and OneShape (OS) rotary systems.
Material And Methods: MesioBuccal canals of lower molars with curving angles ranging from 15° to 45° were used in 30 patients to evaluate the apical transportation and centering ability of Tornado, WO, and OS.
