Abstract
The sealing ability of retrograde root fillings of amalgam plus cavity varnish, EBA cement, glass ionomer cement, light-cured composite resin, dentine bonding agent, and light-cured composite resin plus dentine bonding agent were compared with laterally condensed conventional root fillings. A dye penetration technique was used to assess microleakage and it was concluded that none of the materials produced a perfect seal but that glass ionomer cement, light-cured composite resin, light-cured composite resin plus dentine bonding agent and dentine bonding agent alone produced better seals than conventional laterally condensed gutta-percha, amalgam plus cavity varnish and EBA cement.
