Abstract:
This research examines canal transportation and centering ability of single-file systems when operated in continuous rotation or reciprocation. Sixty J-shaped resin blocks were used. The specimens were divided into two main groups (n = 30). Then, based on the motion used to operate the instruments, each group was subdivided into two subgroups (n = 15). Group A1: One Curve/rotation, Group A2: One Curve/clockwise reciprocation, Group B1: WaveOne Gold/Reciprocation, Group B2: WaveOne Gold/counter-clockwise rotation. Pre- and post-instrumentation images were obtained using digital microscope. Canal transportation was measured at five levels. A non-significant difference (p > 0.05) resulted between two motions at all levels. However, group A1 showed significantly less transportation at levels 3 and 4 (p ≤ 0.05), also more centered preparation at level 4 (p ≤ 0.05) than group B1. Within the limitations of this study, the apical transportation and centering ability of single-file systems are unaffected by different kinematics.
