Micro-Computed Tomography Assessment of the Quality of Obturation (Voids) of Single-Canal Maxillary Second Premolars by the Lateral Compaction versus Continuous Warm Vertical Condensation Techniques.
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Statement of the Problem: One of the most important stages of root canal treatment is obturation for the root canal, an obturation with less voids will have fewer treatment complications in the future. Purpose: This study was conducted to compare the quality of obturation of single-canal maxillary second premolars by the cold lateral compaction (CLC) versus continuous warm vertical condensation (CWVC) techniques using micro-CT. Materials and Method: Value<0.05). Results: < 0.05). Conclusion: None of the obturation techniques could provide a void-free root filling. Two techniques showed no significant difference regarding the mean volume and VP of voids in obturation of single-canal maxillary second premolars.
