Evaluation of Visibility in Imaging Devices of Materials Used in Furcation Perforation
Abstract
Background:Two-dimensional radiographic techniques are difficult to diagnose in the diagnosis of furcation perforations because of the projection geometry and the anatomical structures’superposition problems. Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) is more accurate diagnostic modality than conventional imaging methods due to the lack of superposition and lack of magnification.
Methods:In this study, 114 lower molar teeth were selected. Biodentin, BioAggregate, BioCeramix, MTA and Endosequence were placed to repair the perforation zone. Periapical radiographs were obtained with Sorodex Digora Optime with phosphorous plaques, other radiographic images were obtained using Planmeca Dixi 3 CCD, while KIBT images were obtained using Morita Veraviewepocs 3D R100. An endodontist and two dentomaxillofacial radiology specialists examined the CBCT images and periapical radiographs.
Results:MTA and Biodentine were found to have low image quality, Bioaggregate and Endosequence high image quality. Morita Veraviewepocs 3D R100 showed the highest sharpness, but no difference was observed between Sorodex Digora Optime and Planmeca Dixi 3 devices.
Conclusions:Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) imaging is a superior method in the diagnosis of endodontic furcation perforations compared to two-dimensional methods.
