AI Article Synopsis

  • A randomized clinical trial was conducted to assess postoperative pain and periapical healing after root canal treatment using three types of sealers: eugenol, resin-based, and calcium silicate-based.
  • Sixty-three patients with apical periodontitis were included, with pain assessment taking place at 24 hours, 48 hours, and 7 days after the procedure, while healing was evaluated at 3 and 6 months.
  • Results showed no significant differences in pain scores or periapical healing among the different sealer types, indicating that all three options are similarly effective post-treatment.

Article Abstract

Aims: A randomized controlled clinical trial to evaluate postoperative pain and investigate periapical healing after root canal treatment using eugenol, resin-based, and calcium silicate-based sealers (CSBSs) sealers.

Materials And Methods: Sixty-three individuals diagnosed with apical periodontitis confirmed using cold test and electronic pulp tester, periapical pathology with periapical index score of 2 or more, previous endodontic treatment failure exhibiting a visual analog scale pain score of 3 or above, were enrolled in this investigation. The patients were randomly allocated into three groups and following biomechanical preparation, the canals were obturated using Meta CeraSeal, AH plus, and eugenol-based sealers. Postprocedural pain intensity was assessed at 24 h, 48 h, and 7 days, while periapical healing was evaluated at 3- and 6-month follow-ups. Statistical analysis was done using the Chi-square and Friedman's test.

Results: The mean of periapical lesions for Meta CeraSeal (4.7, 1.6), AH Plus (4.68, 3.19), 24 and eugenol-based (2.66, 1.75) at 3 months and 6 months, respectively. The mean & std. deviation of pain scores at 24 h for Meta CeraSeal (0.62 ± 1.857), AH Plus (1.62 ± 1.962), and eugenol-based (0.48 ± 1.250). At 48 h for Meta CeraSeal (0.33 ± 1.528), AH Plus (1.33 ± 1.798). On the 7 day, Meta CeraSeal (0.24 ± 1.091) and AH Plus (0.71 ± 1.384) for eugenol-based at 48 h, and on the 7 day, none of the patients had pain. Evaluation of the apical sealer puff displayed no suggestive variations ( = 0.634). Notably, no analgesics were taken.

Conclusions: No suggestive dissimilarity was noted between eugenol, resin-based, and CSBSs sealers.

Introduction: Obturation of the root canal is the most critical step in endodontic treatment, which aims to provide a hermetic seal and prevent regrowth and entry of bacteria into the canal. To achieve this, many sealers are used in endodontics.

Aim: To evaluate the effectiveness of the apical seal obtained by different sealers used in conjunction with the single cone obturation technique using gutta-percha under the stereomicroscope.

Introduction: This study evaluated the microtensile bond strength of calcium silicate-based sealers and epoxy resin-based sealer, depending on the use of phosphoric acid (PA) etching before immediate resin restoration.

Methods: Exposed dentin surfaces of extracted human third molars were randomly assigned to 3 groups depending on sealer type (AH Plus [Dentsply DeTrey], CeraSeal [Meta Biomed Co.], and EndoSeal MTA [Maruchi]).

Introduction: The effectiveness of root canal therapy in endodontic practice is largely determined by providing a compact fluid-tight closure at the apex of the root canal, which inhibits irritant entry and buildup, which leads to a biological breakdown of the attachment mechanism and failure. During obturation, along with gutta-percha, root canal sealers are employed to fill voids and seal root canals. Root canal sealers come in a variety of shapes and sizes, each with its own set.
