Özet
Objective: the aim of this study was to compare the efficacy of HyFlex EDM (Coltene/Whaledent, Altstatten, Switzerland) and ProTaper Universal Retreatment Nickel-Titanium (NiTi) Systems [The ProTaper Universal Retreatment (PTR), Dentsply Maillefer, Ballaigues, Switzerland] in the removal of the root canal filling materials with or without laser activated irrigation. Materials and methods: the root canals of 60 human mandibular premolars were instrumented with K files up to size 35 at a working length; the step-back procedure was performed in 1mm increments up to size 50. Next, the teeth were obturated using the lateral compaction technique with gutta-percha and resin-based sealer, and they were randomly divided into two groups (n=30) according to the retreatment systems: PTR and HyFlex EDM NiTi rotary files. Then, each group was divided into two subgroups (n=15), laser [photon-induced photo-acoustic streaming (PIPS); Fotona, Ljubljana, Slovenia] activated irrigation and conventional needle irrigation group. Following these procedures, the specimens were evaluated using micro-computed tomography. Results: There was no significant difference between the instrumentation systems regarding the cleaning efficacy (chi(2)=0.754; p=0.86). Additionally, PIPS method did not have a significant effect on the removal of the filling material compared to conventional needle irrigation. Conclusions: Both instrumentation systems were effective in removing the filling material, but neither was able to remove the filling material completely. PIPS method did not show a significant additional effect regarding the removal of filling material.
