Özet

This study compared the amount of apically extruded debris associated with different heat-treated Ni-Ti rotary systems during the preparation of curved root canals of mandibular molars. Sixty extracted human mandibular molars were selected. EdgeFile, K3XF, OneCurve (OC) and ROTATE files were used to prepare both mesial canals of teeth. The initial weight of each Eppendorf tube to be used was calculated using an analytical balance prior to instrumentation. After instrumentation, the tubes were then stored for 5 days in an incubator at 70 degrees C. Each tube was reweighed, and the weight of the dry extruded debris was established by subtracting the pre-instrumentation and post-instrumentation weight of the Eppendorf tubes for each group. All files caused apical extrusion of debris. There was no statistical difference between the ROTATE, EdgeFile, OC and K3XF systems (P 0.05). All the heat-treated Ni-Ti rotary systems led to similar apical debris extrusion during the canal preparation.
