ABSTRACT The aim of the present study was to compare sealing abilities of Resilon/Epiphany (R/E) with those of gut- tapercha and Kerr Pulp Canal Sealer EWT (GP/PCS). 50 single rooted teeth were randomly divided into 2 groups (n = 22) (R/E; GP/PCS), and 2 control groups (n = 3) (Positive, Negative). Fluid flow rate through the filled roots was measured using a fluid filtration device. The same specimens were immersed in a 2% Methylen Blue Solution. Roots were embedded in clear epoxy resin and cross sectionet at 1 mm inter- vals along the length of the root. Circumferential dye penetration was evaluated at 40× magnification. Fluid filtration of teeth obturated with the R/E system (0.085 [0.057, 0.113] μL·min−1), and dye penetration test showed no statistically significant difference com- pared to those obturated with GP/PCS (0.113 [0.057, 0.141] μL·min−1). Within the limits of the present study, there is no statistically significant difference between R/E and GP/PCS sealing abilities.

Abstract

ABSTRACT The aim of the present study was to compare sealing abilities of Resilon/Epiphany (R/E) with those of gut- tapercha and Kerr Pulp Canal Sealer EWT (GP/PCS). 50 single rooted teeth were randomly divided into 2 groups (n = 22) (R/E; GP/PCS), and 2 control groups (n = 3) (Positive, Negative). Fluid flow rate through the filled roots was measured using a fluid filtration device. The same specimens were immersed in a 2% Methylen Blue Solution. Roots were embedded in clear epoxy resin and cross sectionet at 1 mm inter- vals along the length of the root. Circumferential dye penetration was evaluated at 40× magnification. Fluid filtration of teeth obturated with the R/E system (0.085 [0.057, 0.113] μL·min−1), and dye penetration test showed no statistically significant difference com- pared to those obturated with GP/PCS (0.113 [0.057, 0.141] μL·min−1). Within the limits of the present study, there is no statistically significant difference between R/E and GP/PCS sealing abilities.
