BACKGROUND:Obturation with warm gutta-percha can achieve perfect three-dimensional root canal obturation effect. Due to specific structure of oval canal, particularly in the bypass preparation process, excessive cutting of local tooth tissue may lead to tooth tissue thinning and irregular shape. The separation equipment is the metal with good heat conduction, so the heat caused by the bypassing warm gutta-percha obturation would burn periodontal tissue remains controversial. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the changes of root surface temperature produced by two bypassing warm gutta-percha obturation for the separation instrument in oval canalin vitro by using infrared thermography. METHODS:Forty mandibular first premolars were harvested from oval canals, and were separated using stainless steel 15# K file at apical 3 mm, with the length of 3 mm. The root canal bypassing was prepared using TF nickel-titanium file under operating microscope. The teeth were randomly divided into two groups, with 20 teeth in each group, and were obturated with the Thermafil warm gutter-percha and E&Q plus warm gutta-percha vertical compaction, respectively. An infrared thermoviewer was used to measure the external root surface temperature before and after the obturation. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Two warm gutta-percha obturation methods used for separating instruments bypassing in the oval root canal, had both caused the rise of root surface temperature, which was less than 10℃. In the Thermafil group, the temperature changes were 3.2-8.1℃ and the average change was 4.97℃. In the vertical condensation group, the temperature changes were 5.5-9.8℃ and the average change was 7.35℃. There were significant differences in the change of root surface temperature between the two groups (P < 0.05). Thermafil warm gutter-percha obturation would increase the root surface temperature, but cannot damage periodontal tissues. It is more secure than warm gutta-percha vertical condensation.

BACKGROUND:Due to the complexity and irregularity of bypass obturation of oval root canal and the particular stress of the post and core to the tooth, we have not yet found a reasonable post crown for dental restoration after bypass obturation of the oval root canal.
OBJECTIVE:To compare the flexural capacity of the three kinds of post-and-core repair systems (cobalt-chromium cast post and core, zirconium oxide post and core, and CAD/CAM-fabricated glass fiber post and core) after bypass obturation of the oval root canal warm gutta.
METHODS: Ninety mandibular first premolars were selected for bypass obturation of the root canal with Obtura II & System B, and then randomized into three groups that were respectively restored with cobalt-chromium cast post and core, zirconium oxide post and core and CAD/CAM-fabricated glass fiber post and core. After that, cobalt-chromium metal crown was used for ful-crown restoration. Fracture strength and fracture type were recorded in different groups.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The fracture resistance was higher in the cobalt-chromium cast post and core group and zirconium oxide post and core group than the glass fiber post and core group (P < 0.05), and the former two groups had no significant difference. Cobalt-chromium cast post and core was fractured at the root of tooth, and could not be repaired; the zirconium oxide post and core was fractured at the root neck and root of tooth, which was confirmed as reparative fracture; the glass fiber post and core was fractured at the tooth neck, which could be restored. These findings indicate that the cobalt-chromium cast post and core can bear greater occlusal force, but has a higher probability of root fracture; the CAD/CAM-fabricated glass fiber post and core exhibits a lower probability of root fracture
