Popis: | This study evaluated the ability of three materials--a resinous root canal sealer (Sealer 26) prepared in a thick consistence, a reinforced zinc oxide-eugenol cement (IRM), and a glass-ionomer cement (Fuji IX)--in preventing bacterial leakage. Retrofilled teeth were mounted in an apparatus and then challenged by human saliva. The number of days required for the bacteria from saliva to penetrate the root-end filling materials was determined. Evaluation was conducted for 60 days. Leakage was observed in all teeth of the Fuji IX group, and in 95% (19 of 20 specimens) of the teeth retrofilled with IRM. Sixty-five percent (13 of 20 teeth) of the teeth retrofilled with Sealer 26 showed leakage. No difference was detected between Fuji IX and IRM (p0.05). However Sealer 26 was significantly more effective in preventing bacterial leakage when compared with other materials tested (p0.05). |
