Summary

In vitro study to compare the sealing ability of bioceramic-coated gutta-percha with bioceramic sealer against conventional gutta-percha with bioceramic sealer in root canal obturation. A total of 60 extracted human single-canal teeth will be prepared and obturated according to standardized protocols, then evaluated for microleakage. Data will be analyzed using SPSS (version 25) with appropriate non-parametric tests at a significance level of p\<0.05. The outcomes are expected to identify the more effective obturation material combination in achieving a fluid-tight seal, thereby contributing to improved success rates in endodontic therapy.

Conditions

  • Leakage Testing

Interventions

PROCEDURE

bioceramic coated gutta percha

Experimental Arm (Bioceramic-coated GP + Bioceramic Sealer): Specimens will be obturated using bioceramic-coated gutta-percha cones in combination with bioceramic sealer after canal preparation with ProTaper NEXT files up to size F3.

PROCEDURE

conventional(non-coated) gutta percha

Active Comparator Arm (Conventional GP + Bioceramic Sealer): Specimens will be obturated using conventional (non-coated) gutta-percha cones in combination with the same bioceramic sealer after canal preparation with ProTaper NEXT files up to size F3.
