Visual Microscopic Analysis Of The Cleaning Effeciency From The EasyClean And Irrisonic Equipment
ABSTRACT The effectiveness of endodontic treatment is directly correlated with the quality of chemomechanical preparation and root canal obturation. During canal cleaning and shaping, irrigation solution efficacy is critically important, which has led to numerous studies over decades and the development of various protocols to enhance its effectiveness. This study aims to evaluate the cleaning […]
Cyclic and torsional fatigue resistance of thermally treated rotary NiTi instruments with different designs
Introduction: The aim was to evaluate the cyclic and torsional fatigue resistance among thermally treated NiTi rotary instruments with different design features. Materials and methods: Sixty instruments of three systems were used (n=20): TruNatomy 26.04 (TN 26.04), BassiLogic 25.05 (BL 25.05), and Flat File 25.04 (FF 25.04). The cyclic fatigue test (n=10) was made in […]
Mechanical activation with Easy Clean device enhanced organic tissue removal from simulated internal root resorption in a laboratory evaluation
Background: Considering the irregular shape of the root canal, removing inflamed pulp and granulation tissue completely from internal resorption cavities during chemomechanical preparation can be challenging. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of passive ultrasonic irrigation (PUI) compared to mechanical activation with Easy Clean in the removal of organic tissue from simulated areas of internal root […]
Cyclic and torsional fatigue resistance of a new rotary file on a rotary and reciprocating motion
Abstract: This study evaluated the cyclic and torsional fatigue resistance of a new nickeltitanium (Flat File 25.04) instrument on the continuous and reciprocating motion. Sixty instruments of the ProDesign Logic2 25.03 and 25.05 (Easy Equipamentos Odontologicos, Belo Horizonte, Brazil), and MK Flat File 25.04 (n = 20) (MK Life, Porto Alegre, Brazil) were used. For the […]
Apical extrusion of debris produced by the heat treated single-file systems XP-Endo Shaper, Reciproc Blue and ProDesign Logic
Aim: This study evaluated the apical extrusion of debris during root canal preparation produced by the single-file systems XP-Endo Shaper (FKG Dentaire, La Chaux-de- Fonds, Switzerland), Reciproc Blue (VDW GmbH, Munich, Germany), and ProDesign Logic (Easy Equipamentos Odontológicos, Belo Horizonte, MG, Brazil). Methodology: Thirty single straight root canals in mandibular premolar were prepared and randomly assigned to […]
Cyclic and torsional fatigue resistance of three different thermally treated nickel-titanium rotary instruments
Resumo The aim of this study was to evaluate the cyclic fatigue and torsional fatigue resistance of three thermally treated rotary instruments, such as: Logic 2 25.05 (LOG 25.05), Edge Taper Platinum 25.06 (EDT 25.06) and ProTaper Gold 25.08 (PTG 25.08). Methods: A total of 60 rotary instruments of LOG 25.05, EDT 25.06 and PTG […]
Evaluation of the number of canals modeled with files Prodesign M to its fracture, simulated in acrylic resin blocks
The nickel-titanium files with memory control facilitated the preparation of the root canals, due to their main characteristics being the flexibility and safety resulting from the thermal treatment Memory Control (CM). Objective: The present work identified the useful life of the ProDesign M files until their fracture. Material and methods:The instrumentation was performed in the […]
Comparative analysis of the quality of manual file instrumentation in simulated canals: K-flexofile and ProDesign M
Instrumentation is a fundamental step in the success of endodontic treatment. For this success to be significant, there must be quality in the shaping procedure and no procedural errors such as deviations, zips, and instrument fractures, which may disadvantage the prognosis. Therefore, this research aimed to compare two manual systems to assess the quality of […]
Cutting efficiency of ProDesign R, Reciproc Blue and Wave one Gold reciprocating instruments
This study aimed to evaluate, in vitro, the cutting efficiency and time spent for instrumentation of three different heat-treated reciprocating systems in simulated straight canals. Forty-five acrylic blocks with a straight simulated root canal with 21 millimeters in length were initially weighed (P1). After weighing the blocks were divided into three groups (n = 15) […]
Safety and effectiveness of additional apical preparation using a rotary heat-treated nickel titanium file with larger diameter and minimum taper in retreatment of curved root canals.
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of additional apical preparation using the ProDesign Logic (PDL) 50/.01 rotary heat-treated nickel-titanium (NiTi) file with a larger diameter and minimal taper for retreatment of curved root canals. Materials and methods: Mesial curved root canals of 12 mandibular molars were prepared using PDL 25/.06 and filled […]
