Abstract
This study evaluated the glass fibre post (GFP) removal using three different protocols with ultrasonic tips. Thirty-six extracted single-rooted teeth were endodontically treated and cemented with a 10-mm GFP. Three protocols were used for GFP removal: 20 s activated with cooling, 20 s activated without cooling and 40 s activated without cooling. The removal time and temperature increase on the external root surface were recorded. The amount of residual material and the volume of dentin loss were assessed using micro-computed tomography. Data were analysed using ANOVA with a 5% significance level. The removal time and the amount of residual material were not affected by the protocol. There was no difference in temperature increase between the 20-s groups. The 40s activated without cooling produced the highest temperatures, especially in the apical region, and greater dentin loss. It is not advisable to use the ultrasonic insert continuously for more than 20 s.
期刊介绍:
The Australian Endodontic Journal provides a forum for communication in the different fields that encompass endodontics for all specialists and dentists with an interest in the morphology, physiology, and pathology of the human tooth, in particular the dental pulp, root and peri-radicular tissues.
The Journal features regular clinical updates, research reports and case reports from authors worldwide, and also publishes meeting abstracts, society news and historical endodontic glimpses.
The Australian Endodontic Journal is a publication for dentists in general and specialist practice devoted solely to endodontics. It aims to promote communication in the different fields that encompass endodontics for those dentists who have a special interest in endodontics.
