Comparative analysis of Kedo S-Plus and Baby Blue Pediatric Rotary File Systems in Primary Molars for Canal Transportation, Canal Centricity, and Volumetric Changes using Cone-beam Computed Tomography.
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.
