Abstract

Background: The complex morphology of primary root canals presents a major challenge in pediatric endodontics, making effective canal preparation crucial to treatment success. Only a limited number of instruments can achieve thorough three-dimensional canal cleaning.

Aim: The present in vitro, parallel-arm experimental study was designed to assess and compare canal transportation, centering ability, and volumetric changes following instrumentation with Kedo S-Plus and Baby Blue pediatric rotary file systems in primary teeth using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) analysis.

Materials and methods: A total of 104 extracted primary molars with at least 7 mm of root length were randomly allocated into two groups: group A-Kedo S-Plus, and group B-Baby Blue rotary file systems. Pre- and postinstrumentation CBCT scans were obtained for each specimen. Data were analyzed to determine canal transportation, centering ability, and volumetric alterations in the root canal system.

Results: At the apical third, statistically significant differences were observed between the two groups. The Kedo S-Plus system demonstrated superior centering ability and reduced canal transportation compared to the Baby Blue file system. Additionally, greater volumetric changes were associated with Baby Blue instrumentation.

Conclusion: The Kedo S-Plus rotary file system was more effective in preserving the original root canal anatomy and induced fewer volumetric alterations than the Baby Blue rotary file system, suggesting its preferred use in primary root canal preparation.

Kedo S-Plus和Baby Blue儿童旋转文件系统用于初生磨牙的根管运输、根管中心性和体积变化的锥形束计算机断层扫描比较分析。
背景:小儿根管的复杂形态是牙髓学的一大挑战,有效的根管准备是治疗成功的关键。只有有限数量的器械可以实现彻底的管状三维清洁。目的:本研究旨在利用锥形束计算机断层扫描(CBCT)分析,评估和比较Kedo S-Plus和Baby Blue儿童旋转文件系统在乳牙中的根管运输、定心能力和体积变化。材料与方法:将104颗根长≥7mm的拔牙牙随机分为A- kedo S-Plus组和B-Baby Blue旋转锉系统组。对每个标本进行检测前和检测后的CBCT扫描。分析数据以确定根管运输、定心能力和根管系统的体积变化。结果:在根尖三分之一处,两组间差异有统计学意义。与Baby Blue文件系统相比,Kedo S-Plus系统具有优越的定心能力,减少了管道运输。此外,更大的体积变化与婴儿蓝仪器有关。结论:与Baby Blue旋转文件系统相比,Kedo S-Plus旋转文件系统在保留根管原始解剖结构方面更有效,并且引起的体积改变更少,提示其优先用于主根管准备。本文引用方式:Bartakke RR, Bhattad MS, GV B等。Kedo S-Plus和Baby Blue儿童旋转文件系统用于初生磨牙的根管运输、根管中心性和体积变化的锥形束计算机断层扫描比较分析。中华临床儿科杂志,2015;18(6):621-627。
