Summary

Evaluation of the impact of clinical experience on the quality of obturation and periapical changes of clinical cases using lateral compaction with bioceramic sealers and matched cone obturation with bioceramic sealers both clinically and radiographically.

Detailed description

The idea of using single cone obturation is not novel historically, silver points were used in conjunction with various sealers. It has the advantages of being simple, is easy to learn, quick and does not require any complicated armamentarium or devices. Furthermore, unlike lateral or vertical compaction no force is used, therefore minimizing the risks of dentinal cracks. Recently single cone obturation in combination with bioceramic sealers has been advocated as an alternative obturation technique and is rapidly gaining popularity among dentists. Some studies have demonstrated that the amount of the overall porosity of the single cone fillings is comparable to other techniques.
