Abstract
INTRODUCTION To evaluate the push-out bond strength (POBS) of AH Plus sealer to root dentin and the adhesive interface quality after calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)2) intracanal dressing removal with different final irrigation protocols. METHOD After root canal instrumentation and irrigation, 40 root canals were filled with Ca(OH)2 and sealed. After 14 days, the specimens were randomly distributed according to the irrigation protocols for Ca(OH)2 removal (n = 10): GH2O (control) - distilled water; GNaOCl - 1% NaOCl; GEDTA - 17% EDTA; GEDTA + NaOCl - 17% EDTA + 1% NaOCl. The root canals were filled with AH Plus sealer and gutta-percha. After 7 days, the roots were sectioned into dentin slices and submitted to POBS test and analysis of the adhesive interface under scanning electron microscope. The POBS data were statistically evaluated (analysis of variance and Tukey test). The Kruskal-Wallis and Mann-Whitney tests were used to analyze the adhesive interface (α = 0.05). RESULTS GH2O, GNaOCl, and GEDTA + NaOCl had similar POBS values, with higher values on the apical third, in comparison with other thirds (P < .05). A homogeneous and free-of-gaps adhesive interface was observed for GH2O, GNaOCl, and GEDTA + NaOCl, with difference between GH2O and GEDTA (P < .05). GH2O and GEDTA + NaOCl presented higher sealer tags formation (P < .05). CONCLUSION The final rinse with EDTA for Ca(OH)2 dressing removal had a negative effect on the POBS of the filling material to root dentin. The use of EDTA followed by NaOCl had results similar to the distilled water, providing uniform and free-of-gaps adhesive interface, and a higher number of sealer tags.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION This study assessed the effect of intentional foraminal enlargement on the foramen and the apical root canal morphology. METHOD Sixty mesial roots of mandibular molars were scanned by micro-computed tomography. Their apical foramina were photographed with a stereomicroscope before and after preparation. Three groups were formed (n = 20) according to the working length (WL). G-1: foramen - 1 mm; G0: foramen; and G+1: foramen + 1 mm. Each group originated 2 subgroups (n = 10): G-1: Buchanan's patency (size 10 K-type file) and foraminal debridement (sizes 20, 25 and 30 K-type files); G0 and G+1: rotary foraminal enlargement (ProDesign S size 25/.08) or reciprocating foraminal enlargement (R25). The area, perimeter, transportation, and noninstrumented walls of the foramen were evaluated. The root canal transportation and the centering index of preparation at 1, 3 and 5 mm from the foramen were also assessed. Data were compared statistically (α = 5%). RESULTS The instruments used at the foramen and 1 mm beyond promoted foraminal enlargement and transportation. Regarding NIW, there was no difference between mechanized foraminal enlargements performed at the foramen or 1 mm beyond, similar to the manual foraminal debridement group (P > .05). There was no difference in transportation and centralization at 1-, 3-, and 5-mm apical levels, regardless of the instrumentation systems. CONCLUSION Mechanical preparation at the foramen, or 1 mm beyond, resulted in foraminal enlargement, transportation and were not able to touch all root canal walls that delimit the foramen.

Abstract
This study investigated the effect of the timing of primary endodontic treatment and dosage of radiotherapy on the remaining filling material (RFM) during endodontic reintervention. 60 single-rooted human mandibular premolars were distributed into five groups (n = 12), according to the timing and dosage of radiation (55Gy or 70Gy): NegativeCG-non-irradiated teeth; Endo-pre-RT55/70-obturation before irradiation (55Gy or 70Gy); Endo-post-RT55/70-obturation and reintervention after irradiation (55Gy or 70Gy). Roots were cleaved and analysed under stereomicroscope and Scanning Electron Microscope to quantify (%) the RFM. Experimental groups had a significantly greater amount (p < 0.05) of RFM in the middle and apical thirds than the control group, except for Endo-pre-RT55 in the middle third (p < 0.0001). The apical third had greater amount of RFM (p < 0.05). Radiation therapy, before and after primary endodontic treatment, increased the amount of RFM, regardless of the dose delivered. When necessary, reintervention preferably must be performed before radiation therapy.

Abstract
This study evaluated changes in the root canal length (RCL) and the accuracy of the electronic apex locator (EAL) during the different stages of endodontic treatment and retreatment. Fifty-six mesial root canals of mandibular molars were selected. The actual root canal length (AL) of the canals was obtained by inserting a size 15 hand file up to the apical foramen, under magnification. The electronic lengths were obtained at the "APEX" mark of Root ZX II, using an alginate model. Both measurements were performed at three different stages of the initial root canal treatment-unflared, flared, and concluded-and at two stages of retreatment, after achieving patency and repreparation. Data were statistically analyzed and the significance level established was 5%. All stages produced a significant reduction in the AL (p < 0.05). The greatest variation was observed between the unflared-flared stages (0.2 mm) and between concluded-patency stages (0.09 mm), with no difference between them (p > 0.05). The accuracy of Root ZX II was negatively affected after achieving patency, presenting statistically significant difference compared to the other stages (p < 0.05). A significant reduction in the RCL was observed along the different stages of endodontic treatment and retreatment. The EAL was accurate to measure the root canals in most stages, except after achieving patency for endodontic retreatment. Determining and monitoring the RCL is an essential step towards a favorable prognosis, since it reduced along the different stages evaluated. Root ZX II was not accurate for endodontic retreatment.

Abstract
The interaction of sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) and chlorhexidine gluconate (CHX) produces an orange-brown precipitate. The present study evaluated the influence of distilled water (H2 O) in different irrigation protocols designed to prevent the formation of precipitate with NaOCl and CHX. Fifty canine teeth were instrumented and split longitudinally. The canal was examined with a stereomicroscope and photographed by canal-thirds. The tooth halves were repositioned and distributed randomly into five groups, according to the final irrigation protocol (n = 10): G1 (control)-Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) + NaOCl + CHX, conventional irrigation (CI); G2-EDTA + NaOCl + CHX, activated with passive ultrasonic irrigation (PUI); G3-EDTA (PUI) + NaOCl (PUI) + H2 O (CI) + CHX (PUI); G4-EDTA + NaOCl + H2 O + CHX (PUI); G5-EDTA (PUI) + NaOCl (PUI) + H2 O (continuous ultrasonic irrigation [CUI]) + CHX (PUI). The specimens were evaluated with a stereomicroscope and scanning electron microscope (SEM). Energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy analysis was performed to identify the elemental profile of the irrigated canal walls. The images were scored according to the extensiveness of precipitate. Data were analyzed (Kruskal-Wallis test, α = 5%). Under the stereomicroscope, G1 had significantly higher scores than all the other groups in all canal-thirds (p < .05). All four experimental groups showed similar scores (p > .05). There were no significant differences in precipitate formation among root-thirds in intragroup analysis (p > .05). Upon SEM examination, overall, only G5 had lower scores than G1 (p < .05). Analysis by canal-thirds showed no significant difference among groups and among canal-thirds in the intragroup analysis (p > .05). G1 showed high Cl peaks. In-between irrigation with H2 O activated by CUI is effective in preventing precipitate formation during canal debridement with NaOCl and CHX. RESEARCH HIGHLIGHTS: Continuous ultrasonic irrigation with distilled water was capable to prevent the precipitate formation. The precipitate can be classified as a chemical smear layer.

Abstract
To evaluate the effect of ultrasonic activation of the endodontic sealer on its intratubular penetration and bond strength to irradiated root dentin. Forty human teeth were distributed into 4 groups (n = 10), according to the radiation therapy (RT) exposure-70 Gy-and ultrasonic activation (UA) of the endodontic sealer: RT/UA-irradiated teeth and sealer UA; RT/no-UA-irradiated teeth and no sealer UA; no-RT/UA-non-irradiated teeth and sealer UA and no-RT/no-UA-non-irradiated teeth and no sealer UA. Push-out bond strength test was performed in a Universal Testing Machine. Failure modes and adhesive interface were analyzed under Scanning Electron Microscopy. The data were statistically compared (two-way-ANOVA and posthoc Games-Howell test; Fisher's exact test - α = 5%). The different experimental conditions (radiation and UA) and the root third had a significant effect on push-out bond strength, and the interaction of these factors was significant (p < 0.05). UA of the sealer significantly increased its bond strength to both irradiated and non-irradiated dentin (p < 0.05). The irradiated groups mostly presented adhesive-type failure of the sealer (p < 0.01). Regardless of the irradiation, the ultrasonically activated groups showed a more homogeneous adhesive interface, with the presence of sealer tags in greater density and depth. Ultrasonic activation enhanced the intratubular penetration and the bond strength of the endodontic sealer to irradiated dentin. The impact of ultrasonic activation of the endodontic sealer on teeth undergoing radiotherapy is a gap in the scientific literature that needs to be bridged.

Abstract
Introduction The present study aimed to investigate the capacity of different irrigation protocols using heated distilled water at 65°C (HDW), in preventing the formation of the brown-orange precipitate observed after the interaction between sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) and chlorhexidine (CHX). Methods Forty human canines were selected, prepared, and cleaved in two halves. Images of delimited areas in each root canal thirds were obtained through a stereomicroscope (16x and 40x). After reassembly, the teeth were distributed into four groups (n = 10) according to the final irrigation protocol: G1 (no HDW): EDTA + NaOCl + CHX with conventional irrigation (CI); G2 (HDW + CI): EDTA with passive ultrasonic irrigation (PUI) + NaOCl (PUI) + HDW (CI) + CHX (PUI); G3 (HDW + PUI): EDTA + NaOCl + HDW + CHX with PUI; G4 (HDW + CUI): EDTA (PUI) + NaOCl (PUI) + HDW with continuous ultrasonic irrigation (CUI) + CHX (PUI). After irrigation, the teeth were re-separated and images of the same delimited areas were obtained again. Scores were assigned according to the amount of precipitate observed, comparing the initial and final images. The data were submitted to Kruskal-Wallis, Dunn and Friedman statistical tests (α = 5%). Results G1(no HDW) showed the highest scores in the analysis between groups (p < 0.001), with a greater amount of precipitate in the cervical and medium thirds (p < 0.001). The thirds of the other experimental groups did not differ from each other (p > 0.05). Conclusion The intermediate irrigation with heated distilled water at 65°C prevented the formation of brown-orange precipitate, regardless of the use of ultrasonic activation (PUI or CUI).

Abstract
The aim of this study was to perform an integrative review to identify the most effective supplementary protocols used after filling material (FM) removal and root canal reinstrumentation, during endodontic reintervention. The literature search was performed on the electronic databases PubMed and Latin American and Caribbean Health Sciences Literature (LILACS), using a combination of specific scientific descriptors. Selection criteria accepted articles published in English, Spanish and Portuguese languages, up to August 2021, involving in vitro and ex vivo studies. After applying the eligibility criteria, 46 articles were included for qualitative analysis. The tool for qualitative analysis of quasi-experimental studies of the Joanna Briggs Institute was used to determine the risk of bias of the included articles. The selected articles provided important data regarding the following supplementary protocols: sonic and ultrasonic activation of the irrigating solution; the use of ultrasonic inserts, XP-endo system instruments, and photon-induced photoacoustic streaming for mechanical debridement; and new devices as GentleWave system, and the self-adjusting file. Overall, all supplementary protocols demonstrated efficacy in removing the remaining FM. The implementation of various supplementary protocols can effectively remove the remaining FM from the root canal walls, although complete removal is not always achieved. However, it was not possible to determine the most effective protocol. Conversely, their association can enhance remaining FM removal. Remaining FM attached to root canal walls hinders proper chemical-mechanical preparation during endodontic reintervention. Supplementary protocols optimize the remaining FM removal, enhancing cleaning and disinfection of root canal.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The literature is scanty regarding the effect of radiation therapy (RT) on the mechanical properties of immature permanent teeth. AIM To evaluate the effect of RT on the fracture resistance of simulated immature teeth submitted to different types of root reinforcement. DESIGN Sixty-four human teeth simulating the Cvek stage 3 of root development were distributed into eight groups (n = 8), according to exposure or not to RT (70 Gy) and the root reinforcement method: Group NR (control)-no reinforcement/no RT; Group NR + RT (control)-no reinforcement/RT; Group PO-tricalcium silicate-based cement (TS) apical plug/canal obturation/no RT; Group PO + RT-TS apical plug/canal obturation/RT; Group TS-canal filling with TS/no RT; Group TS + RT-canal filling with TS/RT; Group FP-TS apical plug/fibreglass post/no RT; and Group FP + RT-TS apical plug/fibreglass post/RT. Fracture resistance was determined using a universal testing machine (0.5 mm/min). RESULTS In the intergroup comparison, nonirradiated teeth had higher fracture resistance (p < .05). Groups FP and FP + RT had higher fracture resistance (p < .001). CONCLUSION Radiotherapy affected the fracture resistance of simulated immature teeth. Reinforcement with fibreglass posts increased the fracture resistance, regardless of the radiation.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION This study aimed to assess the influence of the e-vol DX BAR filter on the diagnostic accuracy of complete and incomplete vertical root fractures (VRFs). METHODS Twenty single-rooted teeth were selected. The tooth crowns were removed, and the root canals were prepared up to a 40/.06 instrument (ProTaper Next). Each specimen was scanned in a Prexion 3D cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) device, in a dry human skull, in 4 different situations: no root canal filling, gutta-percha, fiberglass post, and metal post. The specimens were fractured in a universal testing machine by using a customized wedge. Each specimen was reinspected to confirm the presence of incomplete VRFs. Another set of CBCT scans was performed. Then, the fractures were completed in the universal testing machine, the teeth were reinspected, and the CBCT images were acquired again. Images were assessed by using the e-Vol DX software system, with the BAR filter and with the original images, for the diagnosis of VRFs. Statistical analysis was performed by using the DeLong and McNemar tests for the comparison of the area under the receiver operating characteristic curves (AUC), accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity values. RESULTS The use of the BAR filter did not improve the diagnostic values of AUC, accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity in both fracture patterns (P > .05). Incomplete VRFs presented significantly lower AUC, accuracy, and sensitivity compared with complete VRFs (P < .0001). CONCLUSIONS The BAR filter did not improve the diagnostic accuracy of VRFs. The intracanal materials also did not influence the diagnosis. Incomplete VRFs were highly associated with a decrease in sensitivity.

Abstract
This study investigated the effect of radiation timing on the bond strength of resin cement to intraradicular dentine. Fifty human teeth were distributed into 5 groups (n = 10): Control (nonirradiated teeth), Before-RCT (teeth irradiated before root canal treatment), After-CH (teeth irradiated after canal preparation and placement of calcium hydroxide intracanal dressing), After-RCT (teeth irradiated after completion of root canal treatment) and After-FPL (teeth irradiated after luting of a glass fibre post). Each tooth received 70 Gy irradiation. The roots were sectioned for push-out strength testing. After-RCT and After-FPL groups had significantly lower push-out strength than the control at the middle third (p < 0.05). Control and After-CH groups had a higher percentage of cohesive dentine failure. Radiotherapy after root canal obturation and post luting adversely affected the adhesiveness of resin cement to intraradicular dentine. Teeth irradiated before root canal treatment and after placement of calcium hydroxide had the best performance.

Abstract
Objectives This study was conducted to evaluate and compare the tip and taper compatibility of accessory gutta-percha points (AGPs) with various rotary and reciprocating instruments. Materials and Methods Using a profile analyzer, tip and taper measurements were taken of 10 AGPs of each of the 14 models available from Odous de Deus and the 4 models available from Dentsply-Maillefer. Diameter measurements were taken at 1-mm intervals, from 3 mm from the tip (D3) to 16 mm. Results Based on the mean values obtained, 3-dimensional (3D) models of the AGPs were drawn in Autodesk Fusion 360 and superimposed on 3D models of each instrument selected (Mtwo, Reciproc, RaCe, K3, and ProDesign Logic) to determine the compatibility between the instrument and the AGP. Data corresponding to the tips and tapers of the various AGPs, as well as the tip and taper differences between the AGPs and the instruments, were analyzed using descriptive statistics. The tapers of the AGPs were subject to the American National Standards Institute/American Dental Association No. 57 standard. The Odous de Deus extra-long medium and extra-long extra-medium AGPs were shown to be compatible with Mtwo, K3, and ProDesign Logic instruments with taper 0.06 and tip sizes 25 and 30, while the Dentsply fine and fine medium cones were compatible with Mtwo, RaCe, and K3 instruments with conicity of 0.04 and tip sizes 35 and 40. Conclusions Both the Odous de Deus and Dentsply commercial brands included 2 AGP models with tip (D3) and taper compatibility with Mtwo, RaCe, K3, and/or Prodesign Logic instruments.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To determine the prevalence of postoperative pain after endodontic treatment using low (LC) and high (HC) concentrations of sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl). MATERIALS AND METHODS Six databases and the grey literature were searched to identify randomized clinical trials that evaluated postoperative pain after endodontic treatment using NaOCl. NaOCl concentrations were dichotomized into 'LC' (0.5% to 3%) and 'HC' (≥ 5%) and a proportion meta-analysis was applied to determine the postoperative pain prevalence: overall and according to pain intensity and postoperative time. The prevalence of patients using pain control medication was also determined. A significance level of 5% and a random effect model were applied for data analysis. Between-study heterogeneity was assessed by I2 index. Risk of bias (RoB) was assessed using the Cochrane Risk-of-Bias 2.0 tool. The certainty of evidence was assessed using the GRADE approach. RESULTS Ten studies were included in the review and eight in the meta-analysis. The overall prevalence of postoperative pain was 45% in LC and 39% in HC. The prevalence of pain in LC and HC after 24 h was 25% and 40%, respectively. After 48 h, the prevalence decreased to 10% in LC and 25% in HC. 'Absent pain' was the most prevalent score. The prevalence of patients who used medication was 9% in LC and 15% in HC. Three studies were classified as 'high RoB', five as 'low RoB', and two as 'some concerns'. The certainty of evidence was very low. CONCLUSIONS The overall prevalence of postoperative pain after endodontic treatment using LC and HC of NaOCl was 45% and 39%, respectively. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Postoperative pain is common after endodontic treatment using NaOCl, but tends to decrease over time.

Abstract
This study evaluated the effect of heating on the physicochemical properties and surface changes of tricalcium silicate sealers. Three tricalcium silicate root canal sealers (Bio-C Sealer, BioRoot-RCS, EndoSequence BC Sealer), and one epoxy resin-based sealer (AH Plus; control) were tested. The effect of heating on setting time (ST) and flowability were assessed according to ANSI/ADA 57 and ISO 6876 standards. Solubility and dimensional change (DC) of the set sealers were evaluated at 24 hours and after 30 days; the pH of the water used in the DC testing was also measured. Tests were repeated with heated sealers in an oven at 100 °C for 1 min. SEM and EDS analysis were performed. Data were analyzed using One-Way ANOVA and Tukey post-hoc tests (α=5%). Heating decreased the ST for AH Plus and EndoSequence (p<0.05). Heating reduced flowability (p<0.05) and increased pH for AH Plus (p<0.05). The solubility of Bio-C (dried specimens) was not in accordance with the ANSI/ADA standard. The solubility of EndoSequence was significantly higher (p<0.05) when it was heated and dried after 30 days. DC of Bio-C (24 h and 30 days), BioRoot-RCS (30 days) and AH Plus (24 h and 30 days) were not in accordance with the standards. SEM and EDS analysis showed significant changes in sealer microstructure after heating. In conclusion, heating decreased the ST and increased the solubility of EndoSequence BC sealer. No significant changes in flowability, DC, and pH were identified for all three tricalcium silicate sealers after heat application. However, all sealers had significant surface changes.

Abstract
The use of fluorescent dyes in microscopy studies is frequent. Therefore, it is important to investigate whether these compounds may alter the physicochemical properties of materials in which they are incorporated to avoid methodological biases. This study evaluated the physicochemical properties of two endodontic sealers containing dry or diluted rhodamine B. Six groups were evaluated: AH Plus and MTA Fillapex in their original composition and mixed with 0.1% dry or diluted rhodamine. Push-out test was applied to assess the bond strength to root dentin. ANSI-ADA No. 57 and ISO No. 6876:2012 specifications were followed to evaluate flowability, setting time, and solubility of the sealers. pH changes were assessed after 24 h, 7, and 30 days. Intergroup comparisons were analyzed by ANOVA complemented by Tukey's post-hoc test; comparisons among periods were analyzed by Wilcoxon and Friedman tests. The incorporation of dry rhodamine decreased the bond strength and prolonged the setting time of AH Plus. The incorporation of diluted rhodamine decreased the setting time and increased the flowability of MTA Fillapex. Diluted rhodamine promoted pH reduction of AH Plus after 24 h and dry rhodamine after 7 days. Rhodamine incorporation promoted pH reduction after 30 days for MTA Fillapex. Solubility was not affected. In conclusion, the incorporation of diluted rhodamine changed the properties of MTA Fillapex, and the incorporation of dry rhodamine changed the properties of AH Plus. Previous dilution of rhodamine did not severely compromise the physicochemical properties of AH Plus and may be suggested to assess its penetrability.

Abstract
Objectives This study evaluated the effect of different nanoparticulated zinc oxide (nano-ZnO) and conventional-ZnO ratios on the physicochemical properties of calcium aluminate cement (CAC). Materials and Methods The conventional-ZnO and nano-ZnO were added to the cement powder in the following proportions: G1 (20% conventional-ZnO), G2 (15% conventional-ZnO + 5% nano-ZnO), G3 (12% conventional-ZnO + 3% nano-ZnO) and G4 (10% conventional-ZnO + 5% nano-ZnO). The radiopacity (Rad), setting time (Set), dimensional change (Dc), solubility (Sol), compressive strength (Cst), and pH were evaluated. The nano-ZnO and CAC containing conventional-ZnO were also assessed using scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. Radiopacity data were analyzed by the 1-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Bonferroni tests (p < 0.05). The data of the other properties were analyzed by the ANOVA, Tukey, and Fisher tests (p < 0.05). Results The nano-ZnO and CAC containing conventional-ZnO powders presented particles with few impurities and nanometric and micrometric sizes, respectively. G1 had the highest Rad mean value (p < 0.05). When compared to G1, groups containing nano-ZnO had a significant reduction in the Set (p < 0.05) and lower values of Dc at 24 hours (p < 0.05). The Cst was higher for G4, with a significant difference for the other groups (p < 0.05). The Sol did not present significant differences among groups (p > 0.05). Conclusions The addition of nano-ZnO to CAC improved its dimensional change, setting time, and compressive strength, which may be promising for the clinical performance of this cement.

Abstract
The present study reported a method for inducing incomplete root fracture in human extracted teeth for the purpose of evaluating the merits of different diagnostic imaging techniques. Thirty-five single-rooted teeth were inspected under magnification and transillumination to exclude previously fractured teeth. Tooth crowns were removed, and the root canals were prepared up to the ProTaper Next X4 (40.06) file. Each root was lined with wax and embedded in a polystyrene resin block. The setup was attached to a universal testing machine for pressing a customized conical wedge (diameter at tip: 0.6 mm; taper: 0.2 mm/mm) into the instrumented canal with a 2 kN load at 5 mm/min. The machine was programmed to stop after a sudden 10% drop in loading force. Each specimen was removed from the resin block and inspected under × 20 magnification and transillumination to identify the fracture characteristics (pattern, surfaces and root-third affected). The gap width of each specimen was measured at different locations along the fracture line. The protocol induced incomplete vertical root fractures in all specimens. Fracture widths were < 100 μm in all specimens (mean gap width: 34.9 μm). The proposed methodology was successful in inducing incomplete vertical root fractures with characteristics that resemble the clinical presentation of these conditions. The method is easy to execute, highly reproducible and helps to minimize bias in laboratory studies that aims to mimic vertical root fractures.

Abstract
Background This study aimed to evaluate the pH and calcium ions (Ca2+) release from two tricalcium silicate-based sealers (Sealer Plus BC and Bio-C Pulpecto) through roots of primary teeth. Methods Forty root canals of primary incisors were prepared and distributed into four groups according to the filling material: GPlusBC (Sealer Plus BC); GBioC (Bio-C Pulpecto); GUltra (Ultracal); and GC (no filled). pH measurement was performed with a digital pH meter, and the Ca2+ release was measured in an atomic absorption spectrophotometer at baseline, 24 h and 1, 2, 3, and 4 weeks later. The data were analyzed using two-way ANOVA and Tukey's post hoc tests. Results The results did not reveal significant differences between the groups in terms of pH in 24 h, 1-, and 2-weeks' periods. After 4 weeks, there was a significant difference, with the highest mean pH values in GUltra, followed, respectively, by GPlusBC and GBioC. Regarding the Ca2+ release, the GUltra showed greatest mean values at all evaluated times, and the other groups showed no difference between them. Conclusion Both sealers were able to promote the elevation of the pH and Ca2+ release through roots of primary teeth, which brings favorable properties for their use as a filling material.

Abstract
Few long-term studies assess the discoloration induced by hydraulic calcium silicate-based cement on dental structures. In addition, as far as we know, no long-term study has assessed the discoloration induced by these cement on composite resin. This in vitro study aimed to assess, during a period of two years, the discoloration potential of different hydraulic calcium silicate-based cements (hCSCs) on the enamel/dentin structure and composite resin restoration. A total of 40 enamel/dentin discs were obtained from bovine incisors, and 40 composite resin discs (10 mm in diameter × 2 mm thick) were fabricated. A 0.8 mm-deep cavity was made in the center of each disc and filled with the following hCSCs (n=10): Original MTA (Angelus); MTA Repair HP (Angelus); NeoMTA Plus (Avalon); and Biodentine (Septodont). An initial color measurement was performed (T0 - baseline). After 7, 15, 30, 45, 90, 300 days, and two years, new color measurements were performed to determine the color (ΔE00), lightness (ΔL'), chroma (ΔC'), hue differences (ΔH'), and whiteness index (WID). For enamel/dentin, the ΔE00 was significant among groups and periods (p<0.05). NeoMTA Plus had the greatest ΔE00. The NeoMTA Plus group had the greatest ΔE00 after two years for composite resin. Significant reduction in lightness was observed for all groups after two years (p<0.05). The most significant WID values were observed after 30 days for Biodentine (enamel/dentin) and MTA Repair HP groups (composite resin) (p<0.05). The hCSCs changed the colorimetric behavior of both substrates, leading to greater darkening over time. The Bi2O3 in the Original MTA seems relevant in the short periods of color change assessment.

Abstract
Abstract This study aimed to evaluate the influence of different dental tissue thickness on the measurement of oxygen saturation (SpO2) levels in high (HP) and low (LP) blood perfusion by comparing the values obtained from two different pulse oximeters (POs) - BCI and Sense 10. Thirty freshly extracted human teeth had their crowns interposed between the POs and an optical simulator, which emulated the SpO2 and heart beats per minute (bpm) at HP (100% SpO2/75 bpm) and LP (86% SpO2/75 bpm) modes. Afterwards, the palatine/lingual surfaces of the dental crowns were worn with diamond drills. The reading of SpO2 was performed again using the POs alternately through the buccal surface of each dental crown. Data were analyzed by the Wilcoxon, Mann-Whitney and Kendall Tau-b tests (α=5%). The results showed significant difference at the HP and LP modes in the SpO2 readouts through the different dental thicknesses with the use of BCI, and at the LP mode with the use of Sense 10, which had a significant linear correlation (p<0.0001) and lower SpO2 readout values in relation to the increase of the dental thickness. Irrespective of tooth thickness, Sense 10 had significantly higher readout values (p<0.0001) than BCI at both perfusion modes. The interposition of different thicknesses of enamel and dentin influenced the POs measurement of SpO2, specially at the low perfusion mode. The POs were more accurate in SpO2 measurement when simulated perfusion levels were higher.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The lack of a well-defined apical constriction in primary teeth raises concerns regarding the accuracy of electronic apex locators (EALs) for measuring working length. OBJECTIVES To evaluate the accuracy of EALs in determining working length in primary teeth pulpectomies. METHODS Two reviewers searched ten databases up to September 2021. Clinical studies evaluating the accuracy of the electronic measurement of working length in primary teeth pulpectomies were included. Studies without a comparison group, with samples smaller than ten root canals, and that did not use a multiple frequency EAL were excluded. A meta-analysis was conducted to assess the paired differences in mean lengths between measurements obtained by electronic and comparative methods. In addition, a meta-analysis of proportion was applied according to the level of difference between the measures. The risk of bias and applicability of the studies were assessed using the QUADAS-2 tool. The certainty of evidence was assessed with the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) approach. RESULTS Twenty-nine studies were included in the qualitative analysis and twenty-three in the quantitative analysis. The methods of comparison for the electronic measurement were the radiographic method, radiovisiographic, scanning electron microscopy, and direct visualization. The meta-analysis showed that the electronic measurement tends to be shorter than radiographic measurement, while the other methods showed no difference. The proportion analysis showed a higher pooled proportion of difference values between electronic and comparative measurements within -0.5 to +0.5 mm (69.31%). The certainty of the evidence suggested very low confidence in estimating the outcome. DISCUSSION The results of this review denote a good performance of the EALs in determining working length in primary teeth pulpectomies. However, these results are based on clinical studies with low methodological quality and high heterogeneity, which require careful interpretation for clinical practice. CONCLUSIONS Although the results suggest acceptable accuracy of EALs in determining working length in primary teeth pulpectomies, the low quality of the included studies and the very low certainty of the evidence require clinicians to interpret these results with caution. More robust evidence is required to support that these devices are accurate for primary teeth.

Abstract
This article reported two clinical cases in which the guided endodontics was used to perform the access to the root canals. The first case presents a 40-year-old female with a history of pain related to the left maxillary canine. After radiographic examination, the presence of severe calcification up to the apical third of the root canal, associated with a periapical radiolucency, was noted. In the second case, an 85-year-old male was referred to our service with pain upon palpation, at the right mandibular first molar. The radiographic images revealed the presence of endodontic treatment and a fiberglass post in the distal root canal, which was associated with extrusion of the filling material and a periapical lesion. The 3D-guides were planned based on cone beam computed tomography and intraoral digital scanning, which were aligned using a specific software. Therefore, implant drills could be guided up to the root canal length required for each case. In the first case, a surgical root canal was created and the patient was free of signs and symptoms after the treatment was completed. In the second case, it was observed that the fiber post was worn by the drill, allowing free access to the filling material. It was possible to perform the endodontic reintervention in a more predictable way and in less time. In both cases, the use of the guided endodontics allowed the preservation of a large part of the dental structure. The procedures were performed faster, without the occurrence of fractures and perforations.

Abstract
This study assessed the fracture resistance of simulated immature teeth reinforced with calcium aluminate cement (CAC) or mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) containing calcium carbonate nanoparticles (nano-CaCO3). The microstructural arrangement of the cements and their chemical constitution were also evaluated. Forty-eight canines simulating immature teeth were distributed into 6 groups (n=8): Negative control - no apical plug or root canal filling; CAC - apical plug with CAC; CAC/nano-CaCO3 - apical plug with CAC+5% nano-CaCO3; MTA - apical plug with MTA; MTA/nano-CaCO3 - apical plug with MTA+5% nano-CaCO3; and Positive control - root canal filling with MTA. The fracture resistance was evaluated in a universal testing machine. Samples of the cements were analyzed under Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) to determine their microstructural arrangement. Chemical analysis of the cements was performed by Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (EDS). The fracture resistance of CAC/nano-CaCO3 was significantly higher than the negative control (p<0.05). There was no significant difference among the other groups (p>0.05). Both cements had a more regular microstructure with the addition of nano-CaCO3. MTA samples had more calcium available in soluble forms than CAC. The addition of nano-CaCO3 to CAC increased the fracture resistance of teeth in comparison with the non-reinforced teeth. The microstructure of both cements containing nano-CaCO3 was similar, with a more homogeneous distribution of lamellar- and prismatic-shaped crystals. MTA had more calcium available in soluble forms than CAC.

Abstract
The aim of this in vitro study was to evaluate the effect of different periods of intracanal calcium hydroxide (Ca[OH]2) dressing application on the compressive strength of root dentin. The roots of 80 human mandibular premolars were prepared via the crown-down technique and randomly distributed into 1 control group (Gc) and 4 experimental groups (n = 16). The experimental groups were based on the length of intracanal Ca(OH)2 dressing use: 7 (G7d), 14 (G14d), 30 (G30d), or 90 (G90d) days. The prepared roots in the control group were left unfilled. The root canals in the experimental groups were dried, filled with the Ca(OH)2 dressing, and radiographed, and then the root canal entrance was sealed. All of the specimens were stored in saline solution at 37°C for the duration of their experimental period. After storage, the roots were sectioned with 2 cuts. The first cut was 1 mm below the cementoenamel junction, and the second was 6 mm apical to the first cut, creating 6-mm-long × 3-mm-diameter cylinders. At each test period, 4 specimens from Gc and all 16 specimens from the appropriate experimental group were submitted to compressive strength testing (1 mm/min). The groups demonstrated the following mean (SD) values of compressive strength: Gc, 174.41 (56.10) MPa; G7d, 161.29 (39.10) MPa; G14d, 130.27 (57.53) MPa; G30d, 167.88 (34.24) MPa; and G90d, 129.62 (31.46) MPa. Statistically significant differences among the groups were found (P = 0.007; analysis of variance and Tukey test, α = 5%), with a significant difference between Gc and both G14d and G90d (P < 0.05). There were no statistically significant differences (P > 0.05) among the mean compressive strength values of the experimental groups (7, 14, 30, and 90 days). The results indicated that the use of Ca(OH)2 as an intracanal medication for periods of 14 and 90 days reduced the fracture resistance of root dentin.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To assess the discoloration of teeth treated with the different phases of calcium aluminate cement (CAC), in comparison with the conventional CAC and mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA). MATERIALS AND METHODS Fifty bovine incisors were prepared and filled. Two millimeters of the filling was removed to fabricate a cervical plug with the following cements (n=10): CA(CaO.Al2 O3 ); CA2 (CaO.2Al2 O3 ); C12 A7 (12CaO.7Al2 O3 ); CAC and MTA. The initial color measurement was performed and after 7, 15, 30, 45, 90, 180, and 365 days new color measurements were performed to determine the color (ΔE00 ), lightness (ΔL'), chroma (ΔC'), hue differences (ΔH'), and the whiteness index (WID ). RESULTS ΔE00 was significant for groups (p = 0.036) and periods (p < 0.05). The greater ΔE00 was observed after 365 days for CAC (12.8). C12 A7 (7.2) had the smallest ΔE00 . ΔL' and ΔC' were significant for groups and periods (p < 0.05). ΔH' was significant for periods (p < 0.05). After 365 days, significant reduction in lightness was observed for all groups. For CA, CA2 , CAC, and MTA groups, the WID values decreased over time (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS The tested cements changed the color behavior of the samples, resulting in greater teeth darkening over time. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE There is no long-term study assessing the discoloration induced by the different phases of CAC.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate the tissue reaction stimulated by BaSO4 - and Bi2 O3 -containing White MTA Angelus, in comparison with Bi2 O3 -containing white Portland cement, and white ProRoot MTA. Thirty-six adult male Wistar rats (Rattus norvegicus), weighing between 250 and 300 g, were distributed into three groups (n = 12) in accordance with the period of sacrifice (15, 30, and 60 days). Four polyethylene tubes filled with the tested cements were implanted into the dorsum of each rat. Lateral wall of the tubes served as the negative control. After the experimental periods, the animals were euthanized by overdose of pentobarbital anesthetic solution, and the specimens were prepared for microscopic analysis under ×50, ×100, and ×400 magnifications. Inflammatory scores (0-3) were used to grade the tissue reaction. Data were analyzed by the Kruskal-Wallis test and Dunn's test for individual comparisons (p < .05). A mild to moderate inflammatory tissue reaction was observed at the 15-day period, which decreased over the course of the periods for all cements, except for Portland cement. There was no significant difference among the tissue responses for ProRoot MTA, BaSO4 - and Bi2 O3 -containing White MTA Angelus at the 60-day period (p > .05). The Portland group had moderate inflammatory reaction at the final period of analysis, which was statistically different when compared to the other groups (p < .05). The microscopic findings of this animal study suggest that the addition of BaSO4 to White MTA Angelus does not hampers the biocompatibility of the cement.

Abstract
Context: Knowledge about dentin microstructure is essential for execution of clinical procedures which require adhesion of materials to dentin. Aims: To evaluate by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) the dentin ultrastructure after demineralization with 6 M and 12 M hydrochloric acid (HCl). Subjects and Methods: Twenty dentin segments were immersed in fixative solution and dehydrated in ethanol. After 24 h, segments were randomly divided into 2 groups (n = 10), demineralized with 6 M HCl (G6M) and 12 M HCl (G12M), and prepared for SEM analysis. Statistical Analysis Used: Based on photomicrographs and chemical composition (energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy) of dentin, a descriptive analysis was conducted. Results: G6M samples revealed a demineralized surface with peritubular dentin exposure and small magnification of the dentinal tubules openings. The intertubular dentin was partially demineralized. Demineralization of G12M samples was more aggressive and at different depths, promoting erosion and “detachment” of dentin layers. Peritubular dentin was observed on the dentin surface. There was a large magnification of the dentinal tubules openings. In both groups, tubular structures showed a similar chemical composition to the intertubular dentin. Lamina limitans was not observed. Conclusions: Dentin demineralization is dependent on the HCl molarity and promotes exposure of peritubular dentin.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate if the ultrasonic activation of sealer hinders the root canal retreatment. MATERIALS AND METHODS Thirty mandibular premolars were prepared using the ProTaper Universal system (Dentsply) until the instrument F3 (0.30/0.09). The canals were distributed into 2 groups (n = 15), according to the filling technique: NUact group - sealer without ultrasonic activation + gutta-percha cones and Uact group - sealer with ultrasonic activation + gutta-percha cones. The canals were re-instrumented with Largo burs, followed by the instrument R50 (0.50/0.05) of the Reciproc system. The time required to perform re-instrumentation was recorded (s). The roots were longitudinally cleaved, and the total area of root canal and remaining filling material were quantified (%). The ANOVA test was applied to the data and complemented by Student's t test (P < 0.05). RESULTS Uact group had higher percentage of remaining filling material than NUact group (P < 0.05). When the root thirds were considered, there was statistically significant difference only for Uact group at the apical third (P < 0.05). There was no difference between groups regarding the time required to perform re-instrumentation (P > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Ultrasonic activation of sealer leads to a higher percentage of remaining filling material attached to the root canal walls. However, it did not affect the retreatment time. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE Ultrasonic activation increases sealer penetration into dentinal tubules, improving its resistance to dislodgement. However, there is no scientific evidence to prove if ultrasonic activation of sealer hinders its removal when root canal retreatment is necessary.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of Cone-Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) in measuring radicular dentin thickness focused on intraradicular post placement planning treatment. Ten single-rooted human premolars were selected. The teeth were divided into three segments (cervical, middle and apical). The coronal face of the apical and middle sections was selected for the dentin thickness assessment; which was measured from the external root surface to the root canal wall, on the buccal, lingual, mesial, and distal surfaces of each tooth. In situ anatomical measurement was the reference standard, and the corresponding axial CBCT imaging were evaluated by the i-CAT software. The one-way ANOVA test and the Bonferroni post hoc test were applied to compare the groups (p>0.05). CBCT imaging measurements (p=0.003) overestimated the radicular dentin thickness compared to the reference standard. Descriptive analysis showed that the greatest difference between the reference standard and the tomographic measurement means were 0.20 mm. One-way ANOVA test found the statistical significant difference among group's measurements. Bonferroni correction demonstrated statistically significant difference only related lingual surface for the CBCT imaging measurements. CBCT imaging measurements overestimated the radicular dentin thickness. However, the measurement difference was clinically acceptable.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The present study evaluated the effect of passive ultrasonic activation (PUI) of EDTA solution followed by conventional irrigation with 2 concentrations of sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) on smear layer removal. METHODS Fifty single-root mandibular premolars were chemomechanically prepared with ProTaper Universal (Dentsply Maillefer, Ballaigues, Switzerland) nickel-titanium rotary instruments and 1% NaOCl. The roots were cleaved, and the dentin surfaces were analyzed with scanning electron microscopy operated at a low vacuum. Images were obtained from previously demarcated areas in each root canal third. The teeth were reassembled and distributed into 5 groups according to the final irrigation protocols (n = 10): group 1, EDTA/PUI + 1% NaOCl; group 2, EDTA/PUI + 5% NaOCl; group 3, EDTA/CI + 1% NaOCl; group 4, EDTA/CI + 5% NaOCl; and group 5 (negative control), saline solution/PUI. After irrigation, the teeth were reseparated and prepared for conventional high-vacuum scanning electron microscopy of the same dentin surface that was previously analyzed. The amount of debris was classified using a 4-point scoring system. Data were analyzed with Kruskal-Wallis and Dunn tests at α = 0.05. RESULTS Groups 1 and 2, which used PUI and different concentrations of NaOCl, were not significantly different; however, they differed significantly from group 3 (P < .05). With respect to canal cleanliness at different root thirds, all groups showed the worst cleaning at the apical third. CONCLUSIONS PUI activation of the EDTA irrigant is required when canal debridement is performed with EDTA and a lower concentration of NaOCl.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The present study evaluated the effects of using heated distilled water (HDW), with or without continuous ultrasonic irrigation (CUI), on smear layer removal and deterioration of root dentine microstructure. MATERIALS AND METHODS After chemomechanical preparation, 60 human teeth were longitudinally cleaved into two halves for smear layer quantification at the cervical-third, middle-third and apical root-third of the canal space. After reassembly, the root canals were irrigated with 17 % EDTA, followed by one of the six final irrigation protocols (n = 10) - G1: conventional irrigation (CI)+NaOCl at 25 °C; G2: NaOCl at 25 °C + CUI; G3: CI with DW at 25 °C; G4: DW at 25 °C + CUI; G5: CI + HDW at 65 °C; G6: HDW at 65 °C + CUI. Tooth-halves were processed and examined by scanning electron microscopy. The percentage of opened dentinal tubules in the irrigated areas of the canal space was expressed as a percentage of the total surface area. Dentine erosion was classified by numeric scores. Smear layer removal was analysed with ANOVA and Student-Newman-Keuls tests; dentine erosion was analysed with Cohran-Mantel-Haenstel statistic (α = 0.05). RESULTS The cervical-third had a higher percentage of open dentinal tubules for all groups (p < 0.05). In G2, the middle-third had a lower percentage of open tubules, which was significantly different from the other groups (p < 0.05). Groups that utilised NaOCl as the final irrigant had more extensive erosion when CUI was used. CONCLUSION Heated distilled water, with or without CUI, was as efficient as 1 % NaOCl in the final cleaning of the instrumented canal space. The use of HDW produces less extensive dentine erosion. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE Heated distilled water removes smear layers with less deleterious effects on dentine microstructure and may be considered a final irrigant after mechanical preparation and EDTA chelation.

Abstract
The addition of calcium carbonate nanoparticles (nano-CaCO3 ) accelerates the hydration of Portland cement improving its mechanical properties. Conversely, nano-CaCO3 addition leads to reduction in the water required during initial PC hydration. Therefore, the use of a correct water-to-powder ratio is fundamental for manipulating this hydraulic cement. This study evaluated the effect of nano-CaCO3 addition and different water-to-powder ratios on the physicochemical properties of white Portland cement (WPC). WPC was associated to different concentrations of nano-CaCO3 , and the following experimental groups were created: G1a (no nano-CaCO3 ); G2a (0.5% nano-CaCO3 ), G3a (1% nano-CaCO3 ), G4a (2% nano-CaCO3 ), and G5a (5% nano-CaCO3 ). The setting-time (ST), compressive strength (CS), dimensional change (DC), solubility (S), and pH were assessed (24 hr and 30 days). Next, WPC + 5% nano-CaCO3 was manipulated varying the water-to-powder ratio: G1b (WPC/0.33 ml); G2b (WPC/nano-CaCO3 /0.33 ml); G3b (WPC/0.29 ml); G4b (WPC/nano-CaCO3 /0.29 ml); G5b (WPC/0.26 ml); and G6b (WPC/nano-CaCO3 /0.26 ml). The tests were repeated. The data analysis (2-way ANOVA and Tukey test, α = 5%) demonstrated that ST was shorter for samples containing nano-CaCO3 (p < .05). Reduction in CS was observed for all groups at 30 days, except G5a, G2b, and G6b (p < .05). DC and S had no statistical difference among groups (p > .05) independently of nano-CaCO3 water-to-powder ratio. After 30 days, there was significant reduction in pH for G3a and G6b (p < .05). The different concentrations of nano-CaCO3 and water-to-powder ratios affected the physicochemical properties of WPC, especially the setting-time and compressive strength.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate and to compare the physical-mechanical properties of a resin-modified calcium silicate material (TheraCal LC), used for pulp-capping, to MTA (Angelus) and a calcium hydroxide cement (Dycal). Specimens of each material (n=12) were prepared in Teflon molds (3.58 mm x 3 mm) and measured before and after immersion in distilled water for 24 h and 30 days to evaluate the dimensional change. The same specimens were submitted to compressive strength test on a Universal Testing Machine (Instron) (1 mm/min). Root canals were filled with the cements (n=8), and after 24 h, the bond strength (push-out test) to dentin was also assessed on a Universal Testing Machine (1 mm/min). Eight additional specimens of TheraCal LC were prepared to evaluate the bond strength immediately after light curing. Data were analyzed using One-Way ANOVA, and Tukey or Bonferroni post hoc tests (p<0.05). Percentage expansion of TheraCal LC was above the Specification No. 57 of ANSI/ADA, in both periods. The dimensional change for TheraCal LC was higher than MTA in 24 h and 30 days; and Dycal in 30 days (p<0.05). TheraCal LC had higher compressive and bond strength to dentin in comparison with MTA and Dycal (p<0.05). Although TheraCal LC expanded more than the ANSI/ADA recommendation, its compressive and push-out bond strength to dentin were satisfactory and superior to MTA and Dycal.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Traumatic dental injuries often affect the dental hard tissues, periodontal tissues, and dental pulp. Root resorption (RR) is a significantly concerning phenomenon that could lead to loss of the traumatized tooth. The purpose of this systematic review was to analyze the incidences of different types of RR after concussion, subluxation, lateral luxation, intrusive luxation, and extrusive luxation. MATERIAL AND METHODS Seven databases were electronically and manually searched for the identification of observational studies that evaluated the incidence of RR after luxation injuries. Following study selection, data extraction, and risk of bias assessment through MAStARI checklist, the GRADE quality of available evidence was assessed. RESULTS In total, 14 studies were included in the present systematic review. Ten and four studies presented a moderate and low RoB, respectively, and the overall GRADE quality of evidence was "very low" for all outcomes. The highest incidence rates of RR were observed for teeth with intrusive luxation, followed by those with extrusive luxation, lateral luxation, subluxation, and concussion. In general, the most common type of RR documented for all injuries was inflammatory RR, followed by replacement RR, surface RR, and internal RR. CONCLUSIONS Our findings suggest that RR most commonly occurs in association with intrusive luxation and by inflammatory RR. Awareness regarding the incidence of RR after injuries is useful for clinicians to minimize the risk and severity of its occurrence, because a late diagnosis of RR may limit treatment alternatives and result in tooth loss. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Knowledge about the incidence of RR in teeth with concussion and different types of luxation injuries can ensure appropriate follow-up protocols and favorable outcomes.

Abstract
AbstractNon-surgical endodontic retreatment should always be the first option for reintervention when the initial endodontic treatment fails. The surgical treatment, called periradicular surgery, will be the procedure of choice when there is no success after the conventional endodontic retreatment. The purpose of this article is to describe clinical case of endodontic surgery, associated with guided tissue regeneration (GTR). A male patient, 24 years old, was referred for endodontic surgery on tooth 12 after two unsuccessful endodontic interventions. During the surgery, osteotomy, lesion curettage, apicectomy, retrograde obturation with Mineral Trioxide Aggregate (MTA), and filling of the bone failure with lyophilized bone and reabsorbable collagen membrane were performed. After six months of follow-up, the patient did not present any type of painful symptomatology. The endodontic surgery, associated with a technique of guided tissue regeneration, was efficient to solve this clinical case. Keywords: Endodontics. Apicoectomy. Guided Tissue Regeneration. Resumo O retratamento endodôntico não cirúrgico deve sempre ser a primeira opção de reintervenção quando o tratamento endodôntico inicial falha. Já o tratamento cirúrgico, ou cirurgia parendodôntica, será o procedimento de escolha quando não há sucesso após o retratamento endodôntico convencional. O objetivo deste artigo é descrever um caso clínico de cirurgia parendodôntica, associada à regeneração tecidual guiada (RTG). O paciente, gênero masculino, 24 anos, foi encaminhado para cirurgia parendodôntica no dente 12 após duas intervenções endodônticas sem sucesso. Durante a cirurgia foram realizadas manobras de osteotomia, curetagem da lesão, apicectomia, obturação retrógrada com Mineral Trióxido Agregado (MTA), além de preenchimento da falha óssea com osso liofilizado e membrana de colágeno reabsorvível. Após seis meses de acompanhamento do caso, o paciente não apresentou nenhum tipo de sintomatologia dolorosa. A cirurgia parendodôntica, associada à técnica de regeneração tecidual guiada, foi eficiente para solucionar este caso clínico. Palavras-chave: Endodontia. Apicectomia. Regeneração Tecidual Guiada.

Abstract
This study correlated the bond strength (BS) and dentin penetration of different sealers by push-out test and Confocal Laser Scanning Microscopy (CLSM) analysis. Forty-five root canals were prepared according to the crown-down technique and filled with gutta-percha associated to the following sealers (n=15): Endofill, AH Plus and MTA Fillapex. Five canals of each group were filled with the sealers added with 0.1% Rhodamine B dye. Next, the specimens were transversely sectioned and submitted to the push-out test (n=10) and CLSM analysis (n=5). The BS data showed the following means (MPa) and standard deviation: AH Plus (4.17±1.86); MTA Fillapex (3.13±1.96) and Endofill (2.10±1.03). Statistical analysis (two-way ANOVA, α=0.05) showed significant difference among sealers (p<0.001) and root canal thirds (p<0.001). The BS results of Endofill and MTA Fillapex were statistically similar (p>0.05), however, they were statistically different from AH Plus (p<0.001). The regional analysis of BS showed similarity between middle and apical thirds (p>0.05), and both were different from coronal portion (p<0.001). CLSM analysis verified tags formation in all groups and higher penetration of the specimens filled with AH Plus (p<0.05). The Kendall test (correlation between BS to dentin and sealer penetration into dentinal tubules) and the Pearson test (between failures pattern and sealer penetration into dentinal tubules) did not show correlation between the variables evaluated for all the tested sealers (p>0.05). AH Plus group had higher BS to dentin, and deeper tags formation than the other sealers. There was no significant correlation between BS and intratubular penetration of the tested sealers.

Abstract
Objective
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of the intracoronary bleaching and calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)
2
) dressing use, on the bond strength (BS) of fiberglass posts to root dentine.
Materials and Methods
After root canal filling of 40 bovine incisors, a 2-mm thick cervical plug was fabricated 2 mm below the cementum–enamel junction. Seven days later, teeth were randomly distributed into four groups (
n
= 10), as follows: G1 no bleaching, followed by immediate post cementation; G2 bleaching and immediate post cementation; G3 bleaching, dressing with Ca(OH)
2
for 7 days, and post cementation; and G4 bleaching, no dressing, and post cementation after 7 days. The roots were transversally cut into 1-mm thick slices to perform the push-out test (0.5 mm/min). Failure modes were assessed under scanning electron microscopy.
Statistical Analysis
The analysis of variance (two-way ANOVA) was performed, followed by the supplementary Tukey multiple comparison test (
a
= 5%).
Results
No significant difference for BS was observed among groups. Considering the different root thirds, G1 had higher BS values for the cervical third in comparison with the apical one (
p
< 0.05). The most frequent failure modes were adhesive between cement/dentine (G1); cohesive at the post (G2 and G3), and mixed (G4).
Conclusions
The BS of the fiberglass posts to root dentine was not affected by the intracoronary bleaching and the use of Ca(OH)
2
dressing.

on the dimensional stability and compressive strength of Portland cement and
Mineral Trioxide Aggregate (MTA). Materials and methods: Five different volumes of distilled water (0.26; 0.28; 0.30; 0.33 and 0.35 mL) were used
for every 1 g of the cements. Twelve samples (12 mm long x 6 mm in diameter) were
prepared in Teflon molds. After measuring the initial length, the specimens were
stored in distilled water for 24 hours or 30 days. At the end of these time intervals,
the specimens were measured again, and the dimensional change was calculated.
The same samples used in the previous test were submitted to compression in a
universal test machine (1 mm/min-1). Results: Analysis of the dimensional stability results showed no statistical difference
between the cements, proportions and time intervals tested, or between their
interactions. After 24 hours, MTA was more resistant than Portland cement (p<0.05).
At 30 day-period, both cements had similar, and significantly higher resistance than
they did at 24 hours (p<0.05). Conclusion: The powder/water ratio had no influence on the dimensional stability of cements.
Compressive strength of Portland cement was affected at the proportions of 0.30 and 0.35 mL/g.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION An avulsion injury is a serious trauma to pulp and periodontal tissues. After avulsion and replantation, teeth are at risk of infection and root resorption, which may affect treatment outcome and survival rate. Thus, the purpose of this systematic review was to evaluate the incidence of root resorption after the replantation of avulsed teeth. METHODS Two reviewers searched 7 electronic databases for observational studies involving human subjects that evaluated the incidence of root resorption after tooth avulsion. Risk of bias (RoB) was evaluated using the Meta-Analysis of Statistics Assessment and Review Instrument, and the quality of available evidence was assessed using the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation tool. RESULTS Of the 1507 articles, 23 met the inclusion criteria. A meta-analysis was conducted and showed that the incidence of internal root resorption was 1.2% (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.02-5.50). Regarding external root resorption, the incidence of surface root resorption was 13.3% (95% CI, 6.21-22.62), that of inflammatory root resorption was 23.2% (95% CI, 13.94-34.19), and that of replacement root resorption was 51.0% (95% CI, 40.10-62.00). Two studies presented a high RoB, 16 had a moderate RoB, and 11 had a low RoB. The overall level of evidence identified was very low. CONCLUSIONS The incidence of root resorption after avulsion and replantation in descending order was replacement root resorption > inflammatory root resorption > surface root resorption > internal root resorption.

Abstract
Abstract The aim of this study was to assess the effects of intracanal irrigation with sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) and ethylenediaminetetracetic acid (EDTA) prior to calcium hydroxide medication on the compressive strength of root dentin. Forty-eight roots with single and straight canals were instrumented with a crown-down technique using Flexofile files and Gates Glidden burs, under 0.9% sodium chloride (NaCl) irrigation. Root canals were randomly separated into 4 groups (n=12), according to the irrigating solution: Control Group, 0.9% NaCl; GroupNaOCl, 1% NaOCl; GroupEDTA, 17% EDTA; and GroupEDTA+NaOCl, 17% EDTA and 1% NaOCl. Solutions remained for 40 min, renewed every 10 min, except for GroupEDTA+NaOCl, where the solutions were alternated every 10 min. Canals were dried and filled with calcium hydroxide paste, and radiographed. Each canal was sealed and stored at 37 °C for 30 days. After this period, the roots were cut 1 mm below the cementoenamel junction and 6 mm apically from this point in order to obtain 6 mm-long cylinders. The compressive test was conducted with a crosshead speed of 1 mm/min. The means (±SD) (MPa) of compressive strength were: Control Group, 151.23±94.36; GroupNaOCl, 167.50±57.25; GroupEDTA, 108.79±99.88; GroupEDTA+NaOCl, 60.12±92.10. Significant statistical differences among groups were found (ANOVA and Tukey, a=5%, p=0.02). Control Group and GroupNaOCl showed higher means of compressive strength than GroupEDTA+NaOCl. Intracanal irrigation with 17% EDTA and 1% NaOCl produced a significant reduction of dentin compressive strength 30 days after medication with calcium hydroxide.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the fracture resistance of simulated immature teeth after different intra-radicular treatments. Crowns and roots of bovine incisors were cut transversally and removed to simulate immature teeth. Root canal preparation and flaring were performed using a bur in crown-apex and apex-crown direction. The samples were distributed into 5 groups (n=10): Positive control (PoC) - no root canal flaring or filling; Negative control (NeC) - teeth were sectioned and their root canals were flared; Direct anatomical glass fiber post (RaP) - #2 Reforpost main glass fiber post relined with composite resin; Double tapered conical glass fiber posts (ExP) - #3 Exacto glass fiber post; and #2 Reforpost main glass fiber + Reforpin accessory glass fiber posts (RrP). In RaP, ExP and RrP, 4.0-mm apical plugs were done with MTA Angelus. The specimens were embedded in polystyrene resin inside cylinders and the periodontal ligament was simulated with a polyether-based impression material. The specimens were submitted to compressive fracture strength test (0.5 mm/min at 135° relative to the long axis of the tooth) in a servo-hydraulic mechanical testing machine MTS 810. Data were subjected to one-way ANOVA and Dunnett's C or Tukey's tests (α=0.05). The control groups (PoC and NeC) showed lower fracture strength than the experimental groups. NeC presented the lowest resistance and ExP presented the highest resistance among the experimental groups. The flaring procedures produced a detrimental effect on the fracture resistance of the bovine teeth. Glass fiber intra-radicular posts increased significantly the fracture resistance of simulated immature teeth.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study investigated the effect of passive ultrasonic irrigation (PUI) on diffusion of hydroxyl ions through radicular dentine. MATERIALS AND METHODS After chemomechanical preparation of root canals in 60 human teeth, the cementoenamel junction and the apical 3 mm of each root were covered with fast-setting adhesive. Four final irrigation protocols were applied (n = 10): group (G)1: irrigation with EDTA + NaOCl; G2: EDTA + PUI + NaOCl; G3: EDTA+(NaOCl + PUI); G4: (EDTA + PUI) + (NaOCl + PUI). Ten teeth irrigated with distilled water followed by PUI (G5) served as the negative control. After drying, the canals were filled with calcium hydroxide paste (CH), sealed and kept in individual vials containing 10 mL of distilled water with known pH values. At 7, 14, and 21 days, the pH of the water in the vials was measured. The pH values in various groups were analyzed with two-way ANOVA (irrigation protocol and time period as factors) and Holm-Sidak multiple comparison test (α = 0.05). RESULTS Changes in pH was not significantly different among groups (P = 0.651) but was significant different among different time periods (P < 0.0001). For all groups, ion diffusion was higher at 14 and 21 days than at 7 days. CONCLUSIONS PUI has no effect on diffusion of hydroxyl ions through radicular dentine. When CH is used as temporary filling material, a waiting period of at least 14 days is required to create an alkaline environment within the radicular dentine. CLINICAL RELEVANCE The use of PUI during final irrigation phase does not improve the action of CH when it is used as temporary filling material.

Abstract
This study evaluated the bond strength (BS) and the adhesive interface of four endodontic sealers to root canal dentine, before, and after immersion in phosphate buffered saline (PBS) to simulate an in vivo environment. Eighty roots were instrumented using ProTaper rotatory files, under irrigation with 17% EDTA and 1% NaOCl. Posteriorly were divided into four groups (n = 20) according to the sealer used: Endofill, AH Plus, Sealapex, and MTA Fillapex. Each group was divided into two subgroups (n = 10) and stored at 37°C immersed in water for 7 days and in PBS for 60 days. From each subgroup, 1 mm thick sections were obtained. One section of each region (coronal, middle, and apical) was submitted to the push-out test and failures were observed. Twelve sections of each subgroup (four from each region) were evaluated under SEM. Three-way ANOVA evaluation for BS showed significant differences between groups and regions (P < 0.0001), but not between subgroups (P > 0.05). AH Plus had significantly higher BS than the others sealers, regardless of the analyzed subgroup (Tukey's test, P < 0.5). The most common failures were adhesive to dentine and cohesive of the sealer. The SEM evaluation (Kruskal-Wallis, Mann-Whitney) showed homogeneous adhesive interface formed and sealer tags in all groups with significant statistical differences with AH Plus, regardless of PBS immersion. AH Plus was superior to the other sealers for both BS and quality of interface formation. Immersion in PBS did not interfere on BS or adhesive interface of the sealers tested.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of exposure of the mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) - with and without calcium chloride (CaCl2) - to phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) on the apical microleakage using a glucose leakage system. MATERIAL AND METHODS Sixty root segments were randomly divided into 4 experimental groups (n=15). After resecting the apical segments and enlarging the canals with Gates-Glidden drills, the apical cavities were filled with MTA with or without CaCl2 and the root canals were dressed with a moistened cotton pellet or PBS, as follows: 1) MTA/cotton pellet; 2) MTA/PBS; 3) MTA+10%CaCl2/cotton pellet; 4) MTA+10%CaCl2/PBS. All root segments were introduced in floral foams moistened with PBS. After 2 months, all root segments were prepared to evaluate the glucose leakage along the apical plugs. The amount of glucose leakage was measured following an enzymatic reaction and quantified by a spectrophotometer. Four roots were used as controls. The data were analyzed using Kruskal-Wallis and Mann-Whitney tests (p<0.05). RESULTS There were no differences between groups 1 and 2 (p>0.05), and 3 and 4 (p>0.05). The addition of CaCl2 to the MTA significantly decreased its sealing ability (p<0.05). CONCLUSION The interaction with PBS did not improve the MTA sealing ability. The addition of CaCl2 to the MTA negatively influenced the apical seal.
