Both operator and heat treatment determine the centring ability of Reciproc® files in vitro

Clinical Oral Investigations

Abstract

To determine the shaping ability of reciprocating files without/with post-manufacturing heat treatment (Reciproc®/Reciproc blue®, VDW) when used by six operators of similar level of experience. Plastic training blocs with curved root canals (5 mm radius, 55° angle) were mounted in a dental manikin. Each operator prepared six specimens with each instrument system using the file sizes R25, R40 and R50 consecutively. Specimens were photographed, and deviations from the centre of the canal were measured at intervals of 0.5 mm and averaged for the apical, middle and coronal part of the canal. Data were tested for significance using the Mann-Whitney U test and two-way ANOVA with instrument systems and operators serving as factors. Deviations were observed towards the outer curvature in the apical and coronal and to the inner curvature in the middle segment of the canal. They were larger after using larger size instruments and were smaller when using Reciproc blue® compared to Reciproc®. Significant differences among operators were observed in the middle (all sizes) and coronal part of the canals (only sizes R25 und R40). Coronally, interaction between the main factors was significant as well. Post-manufacturing heat treatment signifi...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
