A Case Report on CBCT Analysis of Immediate and Delayed Volumetric Changes of Propoint System
Journal Title: PARIPEX-Indian Journal of Research - Year 2016, Vol 5, Issue 5
Abstract
Aim: To evaluate the immediate and delayed volumetric changes after obturation with ProPoint using CBCT. Summary: An orthodontic patient was selected ,slated for four first premolars extraction. Root canal treatment were performed in all the four premolars using hyflex rotary system and were obturated with ProPoint. The CBCT scans were performed to observe the volumetric changes immediately and after four hours of obturation and compared to the scanned images of unfilled prepared canals. It was found that there was a considerable amount of expansion after four hours of obturation due to the swellable nature of the sealer and the ProPoint. Volumetric expansion of 13-27% approximately was observed. It was concluded that considerable amount of expansion has taken place in the present case with ProPoint system.
