Abstract

Objectives: Endodontic retreatment aims to address treatment failure through the removal of root canal filling materials. This in vitro study evaluated the presence of filling material remnants in the mesial root canals, specifically focusing on the isthmuses, of mandibular molars after retreatment.

Methods: One hundred extracted mandibular molar mesial roots with isthmuses were prepared with an R25 file, obturated with one of five calcium silicate-based sealers (BioRoot RCS [Septodont], MTApex [Ultradent Products Inc.], EndoSequence BC Sealer HiFlow [Brasseler USA], Bio-C Sealer [Angelus]) or an epoxy resin-based sealer (AH Plus Jet [Dentsply Maillefer]), all stained with rhodamine B, and stored at 37ºC for 30 days to allow for setting. Retreatment was subsequently performed using R40 and XP-endo Finisher R instruments (FKG Dentaire) with 2.5% sodium hypochlorite irrigation. The presence of remaining filling material was then assessed using confocal microscopy, and setting times were tested per ISO 6876:2012.

Results: AH Plus Jet showed the most remnants at 2 mm and the longest retreatment time. Calcium silicate-based sealers exhibited prolonged setting times under dry conditions, with EndoSequence BC Sealer HiFlow showing a particularly extended setting period.

Conclusions: Despite retreatment, residues remained in all canals and isthmus regions, particularly Bio-C Sealer and AH Plus Jet in apical areas, emphasizing the difficulty of complete removal and the persistence of filling material.

下颌磨牙近中根峡部残余硅酸钙基封口剂:体外评价。
目的:根管再治疗旨在通过移除根管填充材料来解决治疗失败的问题。这项体外研究评估了再治疗后下颌磨牙近中根管中填充物残留物的存在,特别是在峡部。方法:用R25锉制备100例提取的下颌磨牙近中根,用五种硅酸钙基密封剂(BioRoot RCS [septodo], MTApex [Ultradent Products Inc.], EndoSequence BC Sealer HiFlow [Brasseler USA], Bio-C Sealer [Angelus])中的一种或环氧树脂基密封剂(AH Plus Jet [Dentsply Maillefer])中的一种进行封闭,所有密封剂都用罗丹明B进行标记,并在37ºC下保存30天,以便凝固。随后使用R40和XP-endo Finisher R器械(FKG Dentaire)用2.5%次氯酸钠冲洗进行再处理。然后使用共聚焦显微镜评估剩余填充材料的存在,并根据ISO 6876:2012测试凝固时间。结果:AH + Jet在2 mm处残留最多,再处理时间最长。硅酸钙基密封剂在干燥条件下表现出较长的凝固时间,其中EndoSequence BC Sealer HiFlow表现出特别长的凝固时间。结论:尽管再治疗,所有根管和峡部区域仍有残留,尤其是根尖区域的Bio-C Sealer和AH Plus Jet,强调了完全去除的困难和填充材料的持久性。
