RESUMO
The aim of this study was to evaluate the maximum penetration depth (MPD) and penetration area (PA) of CaOH2 paste agitated by different methods and to measure the pH after performing these methods. Fifty-five mandibular premolars were divided into control, GL and 4 experimental groups, GEC, GXP, GEDDY and GI (n = 11), where the paste was agitated with Easy Clean, XP-endo Finisher, EDDY and Irrisonic, respectively. The canals were instrumented and irrigated with NaOCl. The paste was manipulated with propylene glycol and rhodamine B dye. Root sections were examined using confocal laser scanning microscopy. There was no difference between groups regarding PA (p > 0.05). At 5 mm, MPD was greater in GEC than in GL or GEDDY, and greater in GI than in GL (p < 0.05). At 2 mm, MPD was greater in GEC than in the other groups (p < 0.05). In conclusion, both Easy Clean and Irrisonic promoted deeper paste penetration and were associated with higher pH levels.

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to compare the cyclic fatigue of heat-treated and non-treated instruments. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Twenty instruments with and without heat treatment from Bassi Logic were evaluated (n = 10). All instruments were subjected to dynamic cyclic fatigue through continuous rotations inside a stainless-steel tube (1.4-mm diameter, 9-mm curvature with 6-mm radius, and 90° angle) using a custom-made device, which performed 1 axial oscillation every 2 seconds with an amplitude of 3 mm, powered by a torque-controlled motor (Silver Reciproc, VDW, Germany), with speed adjusting to 950 rpm and torque to 4 N, according to manufacturer's guidance. The groups were compared using the Mann-Whitney test. RESULT: The fracture time of the heat-treated instruments (97.20 ± 39.94 second and non-treated instruments (14.30 ± 6.78 seconds had statistical differences [p < 0.05]). Heat-treated instruments were 6.8 times more resistant to fatigue than non-treated instruments (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION: Heat treatment provides increased fatigue resistance of NiTi alloy with the same design.
RESUMO
INTRODUCTION: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the impact of different sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) irrigation protocols on organic tissue dissolution in the periapical region of simulated immature permanent teeth. METHODS: Eight single-rooted premolars and 48 samples of porcine palatal mucosa were used. Acrylic resin prototypes were constructed, placing the tissue in close contact with the dental apices. Specimens were then divided into 6 groups (n = 8): 2 control groups of normal saline irrigation with (NS/WA) or without (NS/NA) ultrasonic activation and 4 experimental groups of 1.5% and 2.5% NaOCl irrigation with (NaOCl 1.5%/WA and NaOCl 2.5%/WA) or without (NaOCl 1.5%/NA and NaOCl 2.5%/NA) activation. Root canals were irrigated with 20 mL of the solution for 5 minutes distributed over 4 irrigation cycles. In each cycle, after irrigation, the solution was either kept stagnant or activated for 30 seconds and then replaced. Specimens were weighed on a precision balance before and after the irrigation protocols. Tissue dissolution was measured by the difference between the initial and final weights. One-way analysis of variance was applied followed by the Tukey honestly significant difference test (α = 0.05). RESULTS: The NS/NA and NS/WA groups had mean weight reductions similar to the 1.5% NaOCl/NA group (P > .05) and lower than the others (P < .05). The 2.5% NaOCl/NA and 2.5% NaOCl/WA groups had the highest mean weight loss (P < .05), whereas the 1.5% NaOCl/WA group had intermediate values (P < .05). CONCLUSIONS: Periapical tissue dissolution occurred in all groups, with a greater impact observed with 2.5% NaOCl with or without ultrasonic activation.

Os instrumentos PDL2 obtiveram maior resistência à fratura nas condições em H2O e em NaOCl 2,5% comparados aos instrumentos TRU. Na análise de grupos de instrumentos nas soluções de NaOCl e H2O, foi observado que o NaOCl 2,5% diminuiu o NCF. Conclusão: A resistência à fadiga cíclica dos instrumentos TRU e PDL2 diminuiu com NaOCl 2,5%. Os instrumentos PDL2 foram mais resistentes à fratura em relação aos instrumentos TRU.
Introduction: It is important to know whether sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) influences the cyclic fatigue resistance of nickel-titanium (NiTi) files. Objective: To evaluate the influence of NaOCl 2.5% on the cyclic fatigue resistance of two NiTi systems. Material and method: Forty rotary instruments - 20 TruNatomy® (TRU, Dentsply Sirona, Maillefer, Ballaigues, Switzerland) and 20 Prodesign Logic2® (PDL2, Bassi, Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais, Brazil) - were distributed randomly across four experimental groups (n=10) and submerged in distilled water (H2O) or 2.5% NaOCl at 37°C according to allocation. Cyclic fatigue testing was then performed, measuring the number of cycles to fracture (NCF), and post-test surfaces were analysed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Statistical Analysis: Analysis of variance (ANOVA) was applied for between-group analysis, followed by Tukey's post-hoc test. Result: A significant difference was observed in all groups (P<0.05). PDL2 instruments showed higher fracture resistance under H2O and 2.5% NaOCl conditions compared to TRU. Analysis of all instrument groups showed that exposure to 2.5% NaOCl decreased the NCF compared to H2O. Conclusion: Cyclic fatigue resistance of the TRU and PDL2 instruments was decreased by exposure to 2.5% NaOCl. PDL2 instruments were more resistant to fracture than TRU instruments.

INTRODUCTION: Cleaning and shaping without making procedural errors have always been a challenge in endodontics, particularly when the root canals are curved. Several rotary instruments have been developed to minimize such errors. The purpose of this study was to compare the shaping ability of 2 rotary file systems, BioRace (BR; FKG, La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland) and ProTaper Next (PTN; Dentsply Maillefer, Ballaigues, Switzerland), during the preparation of curved root canals in extracted teeth using micro-computed tomographic imaging. METHODS: A total of 20 first and second human mandibular molars with 2 separate mesial canals were scanned before and after root canal preparations using the SkyScan 1176 X-ray microtomograph (Bruker microCT, Kontich, Belgium) at a resolution of 17.42 µm. Canals were prepared using the BR and PTN systems. The percentage of dentin removed after preparation, root canal volume increase, untreated canal walls, structure model index, degree of canal transportation, and centering ability were also measured. RESULTS: There were no significant differences between the 2 groups in the removed dentin after preparation and determination of the root canal volume, percentage of untreated canal walls, structure model index, degree of canal transportation, and centering ability (P > .05). CONCLUSIONS: In conclusion, within the limitations of this ex vivo study, instrumentation of moderately curved mesial roots with 2 independent root canals and foramina using the BR and PTN rotary file systems were equally effective. Both instrumentation systems caused negligible procedural errors with minimal apical transportation.

OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to determine the ideal concentration of bismuth oxide in white Portland cement to provide it with sufficient radiopacity for use as an endodontic material (ADA specification #57). STUDY DESIGN: 2-mm thick standardized test specimens of white MTA and of white Portland cement, as controls, and of white Portland cement with the experimental addition of 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25% or 30% of bismuth oxide were radiographed and compared with various thicknesses of pure aluminum, using optic density to determine the observed grayscale levels of radiopacity in a scale ranging from 0 to 255. The data was submitted to ANOVA (p<0.05) and the Ryan-Einot-Gabriel-Welch and Quiot test (REGWQ) for multiple comparison of the means. RESULTS: White Portland cement with 0%, 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25% and 30% of bismuth oxide presented mean readings of 63.3, 95.7, 110.7, 142.7, 151.3, 161.0 and 180.0 respectively. MTA presented a mean reading of 157.3. The readings of MTA and white Portland cement with 15% bismuth oxide did not differ significantly from the reading observed for a thickness of 4 mm of aluminum (145.3), which is considered ideal for a test specimen by ADA specification #57 (2 mm above the thickness of the test specimen). CONCLUSION: White MTA and white Portland cement with 15% bismuth oxide presented the radiopacity required for an endodontic cement.

Com o advento da magnificação visual e o aumento da luminosidade proporcionada pela Microscopia Operatória, o clínico vem relatando cada vez mais a incidência de canais que antes acabavam passando desapercebidos e, muitas vezes, levando ao insucesso a terapia endodôntica. Um dos casos que vem despertando a atenção é o de molares inferiores: em sua raiz mesial, entre os habituais canais mésio-vestibular e mésio-lingual, um canal denominado mésio-central vem sendo observado. Este trabalho relata um caso clínico da presença desse canal e faz uma breve revisão de literatura que mostra a incidência do canal mésio-central.
