Abstract

The aim of this study was to evaluate the sealing ability of materials filled in the orifice after root canal treatment. A total of 100 root canal-treated teeth were divided into six experimental groups: 1, Protect Liner F (PL); 2, Panavia F (PF); 3, DC core-Light cured (DCL); 4, DC core-Chemically cured (DCC); 5, Super-EBA (SE); 6, Ketac (KC). The materials were filled--to a depth of 4 mm--in the coronal part of the root canals, and evaluated for microleakage. The number of teeth that failed to stop dye penetration in the filled materials differed statistically between PL and DCL or SE or KC, PF and SE or KC, DCC and KC, DCL and KC. The mean distance of dye penetration differed significantly between PL and SE or DCC, PF and SE or DCC. Hence, these results indicated the advantageous sealing ability of adhesive and flowable materials.
