Abstract

Background and Aims: Adequate retention of the post is a prerequisite for the clinical success which might be affected by the type of root canal filling material. The aim of this in vitro study was to compare the effects of gutta-percha and Resilon on retention of quartz fiber posts.

Materials and Methods: In this experimental study, 44 maxillary central incisors were sectioned at the CEJ level and prepared endodontically using ProTaper rotary files. The specimens were then randomly assigned into two experimental groups (n=22): group R, the root canals obturated with Resilon and group G, the root canals obturated with gutta-percha. After preparing the post space and insertion of quartz fiber posts, the coronal 10 mm of the root was sectioned perpendicular to the long axis to produce disks of 2.3 mm thickness.Then the specimens were submitted to the push-out test (1mm/min) using a universal testing machine. The data were analyzed using Mann-Whitney U test.

Results: There was a significant difference between the retention of posts in groups R (7.08±5.1) and G (4.8±3.3) (P=0.04).

Conclusion: Quartz fiber posts showed significantly higher retention in teeth obturated with Resilon compared to those obturated with gutta-percha.

Abstract
Background and Aims: By using the image processing capability in Cone-Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT), obtained information can be improved. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of sharpen image processing filter in determining the external resorption of the root apical region in single-rooted teeth due to the proximity of the impacted tooth using CBCT.
Materials and Methods: In this laboratory study, the lateral surfaces of the apical region of the root of 40 healthy extracted teeth were artificially cut by bur and the teeth were randomly divided into four groups: control, low, moderate, and high resorption. After preparing CBCT of the teeth, the samples were then processed with and without an image sharpening processing filter and examined by two observers. The results of this study were analyzed by SPSS22 and Medcalc Statistical Software version 14. The significance level was considered P≤0.05 for all the statistical tests.
Results: Specificity (100%) and sensitivity (66%>) were either complete or very high for both modes without and with the sharpen filter. The overall accuracy (0.83>) was high in both cases and no significant difference was observed between the two overall accuracies (P>0.05). Statistical analysis of both image observations by two observers showed that the overall sensitivity and accuracy in the medium and high resorption groups was much higher than the low resorption group, but the specificity in all groups was 100%.
Conclusion: The results showed that the images with a sharpening filter did not increase the detection power compared to the unfiltered images. However, as no loss of accuracy was observed with this filter, it could be used as a processing filter.
