ABSTRACT
This study evaluated the perceived vibration, noise and discomfort levels associated with two nickel-titanium file systems with different kinetics; reciprocating motion (REC) using WaveOne Gold and continuous rotation motion (CON) using ProTaper NEXT. Forty roots with two canals from maxillary premolar and molar of 40 patients were included. Root canals were instrumented using each system for each canal. Patients were surveyed about the vibration, noise and discomfort experienced using visual analogue scale, and their preference. The responses were statistically analysed using Wilcoxon Signed-Rank test, Mann-Whitney U test and Spearman's rank correlation test at the 95% of significance level. The vibration, noise and discomfort experienced were significantly greater in REC than CON (P < 0.05). In REC, male subjects reported significantly higher vibration than female (P < 0.05). Majority respondents (72.5%) preferred the CON method. The perceived vibration, noise and discomfort were less apparent from the CON than the REC.
