Article Abstract
The surface condition of four Ni-Ti rotary file systems after using them to shape premolar root canals ten times are of interest. Laboratory tests through SEM showed substantial surface deterioration because pitting dramatically increased after ten procedures (p < 0.001). The Twisted File system remained in the best condition with the minimum amount of surface damage and second place went to ProTaper Next and V Taper 2H ranked after them and Mtwo showed the maximum wear. The surface wear observed in Mtwo exceeded that of all the other tested Ni-Ti rotary file systems. The assessment of file surfaces aids in minimizing clinical failures of instruments.

Objective: This study examined how system-matching gutta-percha (GP) cones in conjunction with calcium silicate-based sealers (CSBS) affect the sealing quality of canals prepared with variable taper nickel titanium (NiTi) files, using confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) and micro-computed tomography (micro-CT).
Materials And Methods: Forty-eight extracted human mandibular premolars were instrumented using the ProTaper Ultimate and divided into four groups based on GP cone (system-matching vs. non-matching) and sealer type (PlanB vs.

The objective of the study was to discuss the effect of root canal preparation using files with varying tapers and active cutting parts on stress distribution in mandibular first molars with curved and straight mesial roots via 3-dimensional (3D) finite element analysis (FEA). Mesial root canals of six artificial mandibular molar models were prepared up to ProTaper Universal F2 (size 25/0.08 taper) (Dentsply Sirona Endodontics, Ballaigues, Switzerland), ProTaper Universal F3 (size 30/0.

Background: Dental rotary instruments can be applied under multiple canal conditions. This study assessed the performance of two batches of NiTi dental rotary files-Mani Jizai (Jz) and Dentsply ProTaper Next (PTN)-by evaluating their cutting efficiency.
Methods: A total of 80 files (40 from each type), with 8x digital microscope magnification used for defect inspection, were tested half of which before and the other half after sterilization.

Background/purpose: Treatment of external root resorption is performed by root canal treatment and repair of the resorptive area with biocompatible materials. Our study aimed to compare the fracture strengths of teeth with simulated external resorption repaired with BioMTA or Biodentine.
Materials And Methods: Sixty extracted human maxillary incisors were used in the study.
