Abstrakt: To evaluate the impact on the quality of filling with of low-fusion and conventional gutta-percha cones. Thirty-six maxillary canines were prepared and divided into three groups: I-conventional cone with Downpack at 200 °C at 4 mm from the WL; II-low-fusion cone with Downpack at 100 °C up to 4 mm from the WL; III-low-fusion cone with Downpack at 100 °C up to 7 mm from the WL. Temperature variations were measured in thirds on the external surface of the root. The bond strength was evaluated using the push-out test. The adhesive interface was analyzed by scanning electron microscopy. The bond strength and the temperature variation data were analyzed using analysis of variance and the failure type using the chi-square test. The low-fusion cone group with 7 mm Downpack showed higher bond strength (4.2 ± 2.7) compared with conventional cones (2.8 ± 1.6) and low-fusion cones with 4 mm Downpack (2.9 ± 1.6) (p < 0.05), with occurrence of a higher number of adhesive failures to the filling material and mixed failures. Relative to temperature variation, there was less temperature change in the apical third, in the low-fusion cone with Downpack 7 mm (1.0 ± 1.0) (p < 0.05). The use of low-fusion cones allowed the continuous wave condensation technique to be performed at a lower depth of Downpack at 100 °C at 7 mm, with less heating in the apical third, without compromising the quality of filling. Using gutta-percha cones with low fusion, which permits a lower condensation temperature and reduced Downpack depth, maintains the quality of filling, in order to minimize possible damage to the periapical tissues.
