AIM: The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of different lengths of time of passive ultrasonic irrigation (PUI) in removing calcium hydroxide (CH) paste from root canal, using scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive spectrometry (SEM/EDS). MATERIAL AND METHODS: Fifty-four human premolars were used. After coronal access, a size #15 K-file was used to obtain apical patency. Root canal preparation was performed using WaveOne 40.08 instruments. CH paste was placed into the root canal. Specimens were stored in a humid environment, and after seven days, they were divided into five groups (n=12) according to the irrigation protocols: Manual– a size #40 K-file; PUI/1– 1 min; PUI/2– 2 min; PUI/3– 3 min; and Control– without CH paste. An elementary chemical microanalysis (SEM/EDS) was performed to quantify the presence of calcium on the dentinal walls. RESULTS: The percentage of calcium was higher in all experimental groups when compared to the control group (P < 0.05); but no differences among them were found (P > 0.05). CONCLUSION: The amount of calcium hydroxide paste on the dentinal walls was not dependent on length of time of ultrasonic activation. SEM/EDS analysis seems to be a reliable method to assess CH paste removal from the root canals.

Summary Introduction Calcium hydroxide (CH) is a medicament widely used in endodontic treatment due to its antibacterial, regenerative and biocompatible properties. Studies have shown that remaining CH on root canal walls and dentinal tubules can compromise sealer penetration, leading to its weak adhesion, volume change and, consequently, apical leakage. The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy of four different techniques in removing calcium hydroxide from the root canal. Material and Methods 32 extracted single-rooted teeth with one canal were used in this study. The canals were prepared using BioRaCe system (FKG Dentaire, Swiss) BR5 40/.04 with sodium hypochlorite irrigation after each instrument. Longitudinal grooves were formed on the proximal root surfaces. All canals (except negative control) were filled with aqueous CH suspension. After seven days of incubation, the teeth were allocated into the four groups (n=7), plus positive and negative control. Four techniques (systems) for CH removal were tested: conventional syringe irrigation (CSI), passive ultrasonic irrigation (PUI), XP-endo Finisher (FKG Dentaire, Swiss) and Canal Brush (Roeko, Coltene) with irrigation of 5 ml 2% NaOCl and 5 ml 10% citric acid. All the roots were then split into the two halves with chisel and observed under the stereomicroscope (Boeco, Germany) at magnification of 20x. The area with remaining CH on the root canal wall surface was then divided with the total root canal surface area (%). The obtained results were statistically processed using One-way ANOVA and Tukey post-hoc test (p<0.05). Results The most efficient system was XP-endo Finisher with 91.33% of clean surface, followed by PUI 88.36%, Canal Brush 87.83%, and CSI with 66.92%. Conclusion None of the systems completely removed the traces of the medicament from the root canal. For optimal clinical success, it is necessary to combine various systems with copious irrigation.

Aim: To compare the effectiveness of two preparation systems and two irrigation techniques in calcium hydroxide removal from straight root canals. Methodology: Forty-four mandibular premolar teeth were included in this study. The teeth were filled with a calcium hydroxide-based paste and randomly divided into two different preparation groups (Reciproc 50 (R50; VDW, Munich, Germany and ProTaper Universal F5 (PTU; Dentsply Maillefer, Ballaigues, Switzerland). Subsequently, the groups were divided into two subgroups and irrigated using EDDY (VDW, Munich, Germany) and CanalBrush (CB; Roeko, Langenau, Germany) irrigation activation systems. The percentage of calcium hydroxide removed from the canal walls was analyzed using a dental operating microscope (DOM) at 25× magnification. An independent samples t-test, a Mann–Whitney U, Wilcoxon’s tests were used for statistical analysis. Results: There was no significant difference in calcium hydroxide removal throughout the root canal using the R50 and PTU F5 preparation systems (P = 0.847). Both activation systems significantly increased the amount of calcium hydroxide removed from the root canal. Conclusions: EDDY and CB significantly improved calcium hydroxide removal. There was no significant difference between the R50 and PTU F5 systems in calcium hydroxide removal. How to cite this article: Keskin NB, İnce Yusufoğlu S.

Many root canal preparation techniques and instruments produce apically extruded materials to a certain extent depending on the preparation system adopted. The extrusion of debris from the apical foramen during chemomechanical preparation may cause postoperative pain and failure of endodontic treatment. Objective: This study evaluates the differences in the apical extrusion of debris and calcium hydroxide (CH) during endodontic instrumentation by using Reciproc Blue (RB), WaveOne Gold (WOG), and F6 Skytaper (F6). Methods: Six experimental study groups (n = 13) were established. The root canal procedures for all groups were prepared with different methods: Group I: One Shape (OS) instrumentation, CH filling for 21 days, removal of CH using RB; Group II: OS instrumentation, CH filling for 21 days, removal of CH using WOG; Group III: OS, CaOH filling for 21 days, removal of CH using F6; Group IV: root canal instrumentation using RB; Group V: root canal instrumentation using WOG; Group VI: root canal instrumentation using F6. Apically extruded debris was collected into preweighed Eppendorf tubes by using the Myers and Montgomery method. Data were statistically analyzed with one-way ANOVA and Kruskal–Wallis tests. Results: All the tested instruments caused the extrusion of debris and irrigant from the apical foramen. The difference among the six groups was not statistically significant (p > 0.05). Conclusions: The tested instruments caused similar apical extrusions of debris and irrigant during CH removal or instrumentation procedures.
