Objective: The aim of this study was the profilometric evaluation of the changes in root surface roughness created by different types of ultrasonic tips and mechanism of action.
Methods: Thirty root dentine samples obtained from 15 maxillary premolars, extracted for orthodontic reasons, were included in the study. The sample surfaces were embedded into acrylic blocks, polished, and divided into 3 study groups as linear oscillating device (LOD) with straight tip (ST); LOD with perio-curette tip (PCT); conventional ultrasonic scaler tip (CUST). A calibrated clinician instrumented all surfaces in each group. The root surfaces were evaluated before and after instrumentations with a profilometer device.
Results: There were no statistical differences between the initial roughness values of the groups (p<0.05). Multiple comparisons of after- treatment values and differences before and after instrumentations revealed statistical significances (p=0.041; p=0.016, respectively). CUST group showed the highest surface roughness in comparison with the LOD groups. LOD with ST revealed the smoothest surface followed by LOD with PCT and CUST.
Conclusion: Within the limits of this study, it may be concluded that fine and delicate tips with linear oscillating movement may be considered as the choice of insert for subgingival instrumentation due to the gentler mechanism of action than the conventional ultrasonic scalers.
