dc.description.abstract | Aim To assess the effect of spreader size used during cold lateral compaction of gutta-percha on fracture resistance of roots in maxillary incisor teeth. Methodology The crowns of 50 human maxillary incisor teeth having no carious lesions, no fracture or crazing were resected 2 mm coronal to the cemento-enamel junction. The root canals of the teeth were prepared as follows: Group 1: No canal preparation. Group 2: Preparation using the stepback technique to a size 40 master apical file. Group 3: Canal preparation to size 40 and filling with laterally compacted gutta-percha; the first spreader used was equal to size 40. Group 4: Same as group 3 except the first spreader was equal to size 35. Group 5: Same as group 3 except the first spreader was equal to size 25. For each root, a simulated periodontal ligament was prepared. The roots were than mounted in polyester resin and fractured vertically on a universal testing machine (Shimadzu, Tokyo, Japan). The fracture values of teeth were analysed using Kruskal-Wallis and Mann-Whitney U-tests (P = 0.05). Results The uninstrumented group had the highest fracture resistance; instrumented, but unfilled roots, demonstrated the lowest resistance values (P = 0.009). There were no differences between the uninstrumented group and group 5 in which a size 25 spreader was used during filling. Use of spreaders larger than size 25 caused a significant reduction in fracture resistance of roots (P < 0.05). Conclusions Spreader size used during lateral compaction of gutta-percha can affect the fracture resistance of roots in extracted teeth. | en_US |
