Objective: Effective tools and methods are applied during root canal retreatment to eliminate root canal obturation materials and preserve the initial root canal anatomy. The present study compared the efficacy of Reciproc, Neoniti, ProTaper, and Hedstrom files in the retreatment of curved root canals. Material and methods: In the present in vitro study, 100 root canals with 25‒45ºcurvatures were used. After the samples were initially prepared and examined by CBCT, the root canals were obturated with gutta-percha and randomly assigned to four groups (n=25). A retreatment was carried out in each group with NeoNiTi, ProTaper, Reciproc, and Hedstrom files. CBCT examinations were carried out again under the same conditions. The samples were evaluated at 3-, 6-, and 9-mm distances from the apex on the first and the second CBCT image for root canal transportation and remaining gutta-percha in the root canals. The time required for retreating each canal in each sample was recorded. One-way ANOVA and corresponding non-parametric tests were applied for data analysis. Results: The root canal transportation in the NeoNiTi group was lower than that in the other groups and significantly different from the ProTaper group (P<0.05). There was a remaining gutta-percha after re-treatments in all the four groups, which was not statistically significant (P>0.05). Conclusion: Despite the fact that the NeoNiTi file produced less transportation than other file systems evaluated in the retreatment of curved root canals, all the files were very effective at the clinically acceptable levels.

Abstract

Objective: Effective tools and methods are applied during root canal retreatment to eliminate root canal obturation materials and preserve the initial root canal anatomy. The present study compared the efficacy of Reciproc, Neoniti, ProTaper, and Hedstrom files in the retreatment of curved root canals. Material and methods: In the present in vitro study, 100 root canals with 25‒45ºcurvatures were used. After the samples were initially prepared and examined by CBCT, the root canals were obturated with gutta-percha and randomly assigned to four groups (n=25). A retreatment was carried out in each group with NeoNiTi, ProTaper, Reciproc, and Hedstrom files. CBCT examinations were carried out again under the same conditions. The samples were evaluated at 3-, 6-, and 9-mm distances from the apex on the first and the second CBCT image for root canal transportation and remaining gutta-percha in the root canals. The time required for retreating each canal in each sample was recorded. One-way ANOVA and corresponding non-parametric tests were applied for data analysis. Results: The root canal transportation in the NeoNiTi group was lower than that in the other groups and significantly different from the ProTaper group (P<0.05). There was a remaining gutta-percha after re-treatments in all the four groups, which was not statistically significant (P>0.05). Conclusion: Despite the fact that the NeoNiTi file produced less transportation than other file systems evaluated in the retreatment of curved root canals, all the files were very effective at the clinically acceptable levels.
