Popis: Objective: The removal of the root canal sealer is an important factor in nonsurgical retreatment. The aim of this study was to compare the removal of AH Plus, Well Root ST, and AH Plus Bioceramic Sealer using Protaper Universal retreatment files. Methods: The curved mesio-buccal canals of extracted mandibular molars were prepared with the Protaper Gold file system (up to F2). Specimens were randomly divided into 3 groups and filled with the single cone technique using AH Plus, Well-Root ST, and AH Plus Bioceramic Sealer, respectively. After two weeks, the root canal filling of all specimens was removed using Protaper Universal retreatment files. All specimens were scanned using micro-CT. The remaining volume of the root canal filling was recorded in total and the coronal, middle, and apical third of each specimen. Results: Well-Root ST and AH Plus Bioceramic Sealer groups had a higher percentage of total remaining filling material than the AH Plus group (P
