Abstract

Abstract: PURPOSE: To compare the shaping ability and dental cracks of Twisted File and S3 in severely curved molar root canal preparation. METHODS: Sixty extracted mandibular molars with mesiobuccal canals (canal curvature angles beyond 25°) were selected and divided randomly into 2 groups with 30 canals in each group. The canals were scanned by cone-beam CT(CBCT) before and after root canal preparation.The canal transportation was recorded at 3 points (3, 5, 7 mm to root tip). After root canal preparation,all the roots were horizontally sectioned 3,5 and 7mm from the apex. The slices were observed under optical stereomicroscope. SPSS 19.0 software package was used for statistical analysis. RESULTS: Transportations occurred in all groups. No significant difference was found between the two groups of canal transportation at the two points (5 mm and 7 mm to root tip) (P>0.05); at the point of 3 mm to the root tip,the transportation of canals prepared by S3 was obviously lesser than the canals prepared by TF. There was no significant difference in the incidence of dentinal cracks between the two groups (P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Under the conditions of severely curved molar root canal in extracted teeth, cracks were found in both groups, S3 was found to be better in maintaining original canal shape than TF system.
