Advances in endodontics have enabled the evolution of file manufacturing processes,
improving performance beyond that of conventional files. In the present study, systems …

The effect of root canal preparation technique on microcrack initiation is a controversial
issue. This systematic review aimed to assess the role of root canal preparation techniques …

Results: No crack was found in the control groups. All rotary systems caused dentinal cracks.
ProTaper, Reciproc, Mtwo and Neolix caused cracks in 92%, 80%, 68% and 48% of …

Results: Micro cracks were seen in all experimental groups (13.3% in ProTaper, 26.7% in
SafeSider and 40% in Neolix). There was a significant difference between Neolix and the …

As a dangerous factor in vertical root fracture, dentinal crack formation is often associated
with root canal instruments. We conducted this meta-analysis to compare the influence of …

Results: Based on the results of the statistical analyses, the two groups were matched
regarding the age and gender, with no significant differences. In addition, except for 4-and …

Results: MC alone did not promote any other defects or VRFs. Experimental groups
presented higher dentinal defects than the control group (P= 0.021). Retreatment groups did …

This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of various nickel–titanium (Ni-Ti) root canal
instrumentation systems in preserving root canal anatomy, focusing on their capacity to limit …

Purpose Pulpectomy can be used for the management of deep dentinal carious lesions in
primary teeth which can be restored. Mechanical preparation of root canals can be …

Statement of the Problem: Employing different instruments may have different impact on the
outcome of root canal treatments. Deviation from the original canal path and defective root …
