Aim:
The aim is to investigate and compare the amount of apically extruded debris after root canal preparation using single rotary and reciprocating file system.
Materials And Methods:
Forty single-rooted human mandibular premolars with straight canals were randomly assigned to four groups (n = 10). The root canals were instrumented according to the manufacturers' instructions using single-rotary file systems Hyflex EDM (HEDM), One Shape (OS) and single-reciprocating file systems Wave OneGold (WOG) and OneRECI (OR). The apically extruded debris was collected in preweighed glass vials using the Myers and Montgomery method. After drying, the mean weight of the extruded debris was assessed using a microbalance.
Results And Conclusions:
Multiple comparison between groups demonstrated that the mean weight of apically extruded debris in the HEDM group was significantly less compared to all other study groups, and the differences were statistically significant (P < 0.001). Under the condition of this study, all file systems caused apical debris extrusion. The mean apically extruded debris was significantly least in HEDM, followed by WOG, OneRECI and highest in the OS group.
