Abstract

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the apical leakage amount of the root canals filled with Thermafil technique, thermoplasticized injectable gutta-percha technique and lateral condensation technique by dye penetration method. In the study, 45 extracted human maxillary incisor teeth were used. After root canal cleaning and shaping, the teeth were divided into three groups of 15 teeth in each according to the technique of root canal filling: Group 1; lateral condensation technique, Group 2; Thermafil technique and Group 3; thermoplasticised injectable gutta-percha technique. After filling the roots, the root surfaces were coated with a double layer of nail varnish, except for the 2 mm part of the apical area, and immersed in Indian ink for 15 days. Dye penetration at the apical level was assessed with the clearing technique. Results of the study were evaluated statistically by using Kruskal-Wallis and Mann-Whitney U tests. There were no statistically significant differences between Group 1 and Group 3, and Group 2 and Group 3 (p>0.05), while a statistically significant difference was found between Group 1 and Group 2 (p<0.05). The mean apical leakage values were, from lower to higher, Group 2, Group 3 and Group 1, respectively. In conclusion the least leakage was observed with Thermafil technique with the use of dye penetration method. Therefore Thermafil technique can be regarded as an efficient filling system in achieving a successful endodontic therapy.

Özet

Bu çalışmanın amacı, Thermafil teknik, termoplastik gutta-perkanın enjeksiyonu tekniği ve lateral kondensasyon tekniği ile doldurulan kök kanallarının boya penetrasyon yöntemiyle apikal sızıntı miktarlarının incelenmesidir. Çalışmada 45 adet çekilmiş insan üst keser dişi kullanıldı. Kök kanallarının temizlenmesi ve şekillendirilmesinden sonra dişler kök kanal dolum tekniğine göre her grupta 15 diş olacak şekilde 3 gruba ayrıldı: Grup 1; lateral kondensasyon tekniği, Grup 2; Thermafil teknik ve Grup 3; termoplastik gutta- perkanın enjeksiyonu tekniği. Kanalların dolumu sonrası, kök yüzeyleri apikal 2 mm’lik alan dışında 2 kat tırnak cilasıyla kaplandı ve 15 gün çini mürekkebinde bekletildi. Apikal bölgedeki boya penetrasyonu şeffaflaştırma yöntemiyle belirlendi. Elde edilen verilerin istatistiksel olarak değerlendirilmesinde Kruskal-Wallis ve Mann-Whitney U testleri kullanıldı. Grup 1 ile Grup 2 arasındaki farklılık istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bulunurken (p 0.05). Ortalama apikal sızıntı değerleri ise azdan çoka doğru sırasıyla, Grup 2, Grup 3 ve Grup 1 olarak bulundu. Sonuç olarak, boya penetrasyon yöntemi kullanıldığında en az sızıntının Thermafil teknik ile meydana geldiği görüldü. Bu yüzden, Thermafil tekniğin endodontik tedavinin başarısı için etkili bir dolum sistemi olduğu söylenebilir.
