Abstract

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to compare the radiopacities of four different root canal sealers and gutta-percha.

MATERIALS AND METHOD: AH Plus, iRootSP, MTA Fillapex and Sealapex as root canal sealers and gutta-percha cones were tested. Standardized discs of the root canal sealers and the gutta-percha were prepared. Digital radiographs of the discs and an aluminum penetrometer were obtained by using a phosphor plate. The radiographic density of the sealers and the gutta-percha were measured by using the digital radiographic system’s own measurement tool, and equivalent aluminum thicknesses were determined by using an image editing software. Differences among radiopacities of the root canal sealers and the gutta-percha were analyzed using One-way ANOVA and Tukey post-hoc tests.

RESULTS: Aluminum thickness equivalents of the radiopacity values of the samples, in descending order, were: AH Plus, Sealapex, iRootSP, MTA Fillapex and gutta-percha. No significant difference was found between the radiopacity values of AH Plus and Sealapex (p>0.05). There were statistically significant differences between these two groups (AH Plus and Sealapex) and all other experimental groups (p<0.05).

CONCLUSION: AH Plus and Sealapex exhibited the highest radiopacity values among tested groups. In addition, all tested materials fulfilled the minimum standard value requirements suggested by International Standardization Organization and American National Standards Institute.

Abstract

AMAÇ: Bu çalışmanın amacı dört farklı kök kanalı dolgu patının ve güta-perkanın radyoopasitelerinin karşılaştırmalı olarak değerlendirilmesidir.

GEREÇ VE YÖNTEM: Çalışmada kök kanal dolgu patı olarak AH Plus, iRoot SP, MTA Fillapex, Sealapex ve güta-perka kon kullanıldı. Kök kanal dolgu patlarından ve güta-perkadan hazırlanan disk şeklindeki standart örneklerin ve aluminyum penetrometrenin dijital radyografileri fosfor plak kullanılarak elde edildi. Kök kanal dolgu patları ile güta-perkanın radyografik densitesi dijital radyografinin kendi yazılımı ile ölçüldü ve eşdeğer aluminyum kalınlığını bulmak amacı ile bir resim düzenleme yazılımı kullanıldı. Kök kanal dolgu patları ve güta-perkanın radyoopasiteleri One-way ANOVA ve post-hoc Tukey analizi kullanılarak karşılaştırıldı.

BULGULAR: Değerlendirilen örneklerin radyoopasite değerlerinin aluminyum değerleri milimetre cinsinden büyükten küçüğe doğru AH Plus, Sealapex, iRoot SP, MTA Fillapex ve güta-perka şeklinde belirlendi. Yapılan istatiksel analiz sonucunda AH Plus ve Sealapex arasında istatiksel olarak anlamlı bir fark bulunamadı (p>0.05). Bu gruplar (AH Plus ve Sealapex) ile diğer tüm gruplar arasındaki fark istatiksel olarak anlamlı bulundu (p<0.05).

SONUÇ: Radyoopasite değeri en fazla olan kanal dolgu materyalleri AH Plus ve Sealapex kök kanal dolgu patlarıdır. Bununla birlikte, çalışmada kullanılan tüm materyallerin radyoopasite değeri, Uluslararası Standartlar Teşkilatı ve Amerikan Ulusal Standartlar Enstitüsü tarafından tavsiye edilen minimum standart değerlerini karşılamıştır.
