Aim: The objective of the study was to assess and compare the dentinal microcracks produced by TruNatomy, Neoendo Flex, and Neoendo Neohybrid files during root canal preparation.
Material And Methods: In this in vitro investigation, four groups of 25 samples each were assembled from 100 mandibular premolar teeth. Using TruNatomy, Neoendo Flex, and Neoendo Neohybrid files, or leaving the teeth unprepared (control), the teeth underwent root canal preparation. Horizontal sections were taken at different distances from the apex to analyze dentinal cracks. A stereomicroscope was used to assess the existence or lack of cracks, and chi-square tests were performed on the data.
Results: In the control group, there were no cracks. TruNatomy files created fewer cracks compared to Neoendo Flex and Neoendo Neohybrid files.
Conclusions: This in vitro investigation demonstrates that the root surface might acquire dentinal cracks as a result of nickel-titanium instruments. Compared to Neoendo Flex and Neoendo Neohybrid files, TruNatomy showed a decreased incidence of cracks. However, it is important to note that these conclusions are limited to the scope of this study.

Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to evaluate the amount of debris expelled from root canals during retreatment using different file systems and to see how taper affects this extrusion.
- Seventy extracted mandibular premolars were prepared and retreated using various file systems, with debris collected and measured before and after the process.
- Results showed that Hyflex CM and Flexicon files resulted in the least amount of apical extrusion of debris, while Mtwo files produced the highest levels of extrusion.

Context: Root canal instrumentation is one of the important procedures for successful endodontic therapy. Unexpected fracture of files occurs during root canal instrumentation without any visible signs of deformation compromising the success of root canal treatment.
Aims: The aim of the study was to evaluate and compare cyclic fatigue resistance (CFR) of rotary and reciprocating files in simulated canals with 45°, 60°, and 90° angle of curvature.

Background: This study aimed to compare the effect of heat treatment on the cyclic fatigue resistance of three different nickel-titanium rotary file systems: TruNatomy, HyFlex CM, and NeoEndo flex in simulated curved canals at two different radii of curvatures.
Materials And Methods: A total of 60 NiTi rotary files of three types were used, and the samples were divided into three groups TruNatomy, HyFlex CM, and NeoEndo flex. All the instruments were subjected to cyclic fatigue testing using a stainless steel custom-made canal model with a 60° angle of curvature and two radii of curvature 5 mm and 3 mm; the number of cycles to fracture and length of the fractured segment was measured.
Assessment of Stress Distribution with 3 Taper Design Preparation of Root Canal Using Finite Element Analysis.

Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to evaluate how stress is distributed across different taper designs in root canal preparations using finite element analysis.
- Lower incisor teeth were shaped with varying taper designs (4%, 6%, and 8%) and analyzed using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) to assess stress levels.
- Results showed that greater canal tapering led to increased stress, with the highest stress occurring at the coronal region of the enamel compared to other areas.
Comparative Evaluation of the Incidence of Dentin Microcracks Following Biomechanical Preparation Using Four Different Nickel-Titanium Rotary File Systems: An In Vitro Study.

Introduction: Biomechanical preparation has gotten easier over time with the development of nickel-titanium (NiTi) rotary instruments. Despite their benefits, research has shown that these files frequently result in microcracks in the root canal dentin, which can fracture the roots. Such mishaps should be prevented, as they compromise the integrity of the root and reduce the long-term survival of endodontically treated teeth.
