TL;DR: In the nonsolvent groups, less time was needed to achieve satisfactory gutta-percha removal and root canal refinement than in the solvent groups.
Journal ArticleDOI
Completeness of root canal obturations: Epiphany techniques versus gutta-percha techniques.
TL;DR: This project was designed to determine how a new resin based obturation material compared with traditional gutta-percha techniques in its ability to fill the prepared root canal space in terms of surface areas of voids.
Journal ArticleDOI
Incidence of dentinal defects after root canal filling procedures
TL;DR: Dentinal defects were observed in roots filled with gutta-percha and AH26 using the lateral compaction and continuous wave techniques and there was no correlation between the appearance of defects and level of the root or remaining dentine thickness.
Journal ArticleDOI
Aetiology, incidence and morphology of the C-shaped root canal system and its impact on clinical endodontics.
TL;DR: A systematic search was conducted using the MEDLINE, BIOSIS, Cochrane Library, EMBASE, Google Scholar, Web of Science, PLoS and BioMed Central databases, and many rarely cited articles were included to summarize current knowledge regarding C-shaped roots and root canals.
Journal ArticleDOI
A comparison of three gutta-percha obturation techniques to replicate canal irregularities.
TL;DR: A split-tooth model with artificially created intracanal wall defects was used to compare three gutta-percha obturation techniques, cold lateral, warm lateral, and warm vertical, and there was a statistically significantly better result with both warm techniques compared to cold lateral Obturation, while there was no significant difference between the warm obturations.

Endodontic infection: some biologic and treatment factors associated with outcome.
TL;DR: Diseased periapex, level of working length relative to the radiographic apex, and fair/poor density all affect the outcome of endodontic treatment.

Long-term seal provided by some root-end filling materials.
TL;DR: At 3, 6, and 12-month time intervals, both glass ionomer cements and MTA showed less leakage than the conventional amalgam and Super-Eba, of which amalgam leaked more.

Further Investigation of Spreader Loads Required to Cause Vertical Root Fracture During Lateral Condensation
TL;DR: The roots of 54 extracted human mandibular incisors were instrumented, measured, and then filled with gutta-percha by lateral condensation on an Instron testing machine until vertical root fracture occurred.
Journal ArticleDOI
Load and strain during lateral condensation and vertical root fracture.
TL;DR: The results suggest that lateral condensation alone should not be a direct cause of vertical root fracture, and the use of finger spreaders, however, is associated with lower risk.
