Abstract

The purpose of the present study was to determine the dislodgement resistance of AH Plus, MTA Fillapex, and Total Fill BC sealer to root canal dentin walls following placement of calcium hydroxide (CH) or double antibiotic paste (DAP) medicaments. Root canals of 90 single-rooted human mandibular premolar teeth were instrumented with Reciproc rotary instruments to a size R50. The teeth were randomly divided into two experimental groups: those receiving an intracanal medicament with either CH or DAP and a control group (n = 30). After 3 weeks, the medicaments were removed by irrigation with 5 mL of 2.5 % NaOCl, 5 mL 17 % EDTA, and 5 mL distilled water under sonic agitation. Each group was then subdivided into three subgroups (n = 10), and the canals were filled with either AH Plus, MTA Fillapex, or Total Fill BC sealer. After 1 week, a push-out test was applied to the specimens and the results were analyzed using one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) and post hoc Tamhane's tests. Regardless of the type of intracanal medicament used, Total Fill BC Sealer and MTA Fillapex showed the highest and lowest bond strength, respectively (P < 0.05). The use or absence of medicaments did not significantly affect the dislodgment resistance of root canal fillings (P > 0.05). Prior CH placement improved dislodgement resistance of all sealers without statistical difference (P > 0.05). Adhesive failure between core and sealer was the most frequent failure mode. Prior application of CH or DAP did not significantly affect the adhesion of the AH Plus, MTA Fillapex, and Total Fill BC Sealers. There is a little information about the influence of antibiotic medicaments on the bond strength of root canal sealer. These findings suggest that the use of DAP does not affect the adhesion strength of AH Plus, MTA Fillapex, and Total Fill BC Sealers.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 12 June 2016.
All research outputs
#20,333,181
of 22,877,793 outputs
Outputs from Clinical Oral Investigations
#1,020
of 1,410 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#297,733
of 345,197 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Clinical Oral Investigations
#19
of 27 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,877,793 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,410 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.6. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 345,197 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 27 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
