Radiographic analysis of the lateral canals filling by four different obturation techniques
Journal Title: RSBO - Year 2005, Vol 2, Issue 2
Abstract
Many obturation techniques have been developed, specifically with the purpose of increasing the quality of the apical sealing with the association gutta percha/sealer. The aim of this study was to evaluate,by means of radiographic exam, the sealing quality of 60 extracted teeth lateral canals, using Grossman sealing and four types of obturation techniques: McSpadden, Tagger’s hybrid technique, Thermafil and lateral condensation. The results were obtained with the analysis of the final radiographs, in which could be observed that Thermafil had superiority in relation to the other techniques when testing the sealing of lateral canals.
