Abstract
Obturation of the canal space, efficient disinfection, and thorough canal debridement are essential components of endodontic therapy success. A crucial first step is biomechanical preparation. This study set out to assess various file systems' cleaning efficacy in terms of the thickness of dentin that remained after cleaning. Twenty permanently removed anterior teeth were used in the investigation, and they were split into two groups: Group B used reciprocating WaveOne file systems, and Group A used ProTaper Next (PTN). After obtaining a pre-CBCT scan, the corresponding file groups proceeded with biomechanical preparation. A post-CBCT scan was obtained, and the dentin thickness remaining was compared between the pre- and post-CBCT scans. Statistics were used to analyze the data. Dentin thickness decrease was shown to be minimal for ProTaper Next (PTN) and maximal for WaveOne; nonetheless, the intergroup comparison was deemed to be highly inconsequential. After biomechanical preparation, WaveOne is a highly recommended rotary endodontic device that does not significantly reduce the residual dentin thickness.
