Rc. Shakespeare et Jc. Donnelly, AN IN-VITRO COMPARISON OF APICAL MICROLEAKAGE AFTER OBTURATION WITH JS QUICK-FILL OR LATERAL CONDENSATION, Journal of endodontics, 23(5), 1997, pp. 312-314
Thirty extracted human single-root teeth were instrumented to #45 file
size while creating a continuous coronal taper, Canals were obturated
with Roth 801 sealer and either JS Quick-Fill or lateral condensation
of gutta-percha, Mean apical linear microleakage of India Ink was eva
luated in cleared teeth using a stereomicroscope. Significantly less l
eakage (p < 0.1) occurred with lateral condensation than with JS Quick
-Fill.
