Comparative Evaluation of Sealing Ability of Different Type of MTA as Root-End Filling Materials Using Dye Penetration Technique - An In Vitro Study.
Journal of Pharmacy & Bioallied Sciences 2024 Februrary
INTRODUCTION: The main goal of the root-end filling material is to create a hermetic seal to protect against microbes and their by-products. Excellent biocompatibility and sealing ability are characteristics of MTA developed by Torabinejad et al . This study aimed to compare the sealing ability of different type MTA as root-end filling material using dye penetration technique.
MATERIAL AND METHOD: One-twenty (N = 120) extracted human maxillary anterior teeth were decontaminated, cleaned, and decoronated. Endodontic treatment and root-end resection were done. Then root-end cavity was prepared and filled with tested materials (N = 30). A calibrated stereomicroscope was used to evaluate linear measurement. All data were tabulated and statistically analyzed with a level of significance set at P < .05.
RESULT: This order of increasing microleaks was observed: MTA Angelus < MTA Plus < PRO-Root MTA < Control group. There was a statistically significant difference in mean microleakage in MTA Angelus and MTA Plus groups ( P = 0.040). MTA Angelus shows the least microleakage among all the bioceramic material groups.
CONCLUSION: Although the sealing ability of MTA Angelus is superior to MTA Plus, PRO-Root MTA. MTA Plus, PRO-Root MTA could be considered an acceptable alternative to MTA Angelus in peri-radicular surgeries.
