| Summary: | The aims of this study were (a) to evaluate the effectiveness of two warm vertical obturation techniques and the auxiliary action of two irrigation methods by measuring the percentage gutta-percha penetration (PGP) into the simulated lateral canals: (b) to compare the cleaning efficiency of two irrigation methods through the assessment of smear layer using SEM examination. A total of 140 mandibular second premolars were used in this study. Three simulated lateral canals were crated at distal root surface; coronal, middle and apical third. The teeth were then divided into four groups (G1, G2, G3 and G4) (n= 35). Root canal preparation was done using K3 rotary file in crown-down technique. |
