    The influence of irrigating solutions on the accuracy of the electronic apex locator facility in the Tri Auto ZX handpiece
    (Blackwell Publishing, 2007) Erdemir, A.; Eldeniz, A. U.; Ari, H.; Belli, S.; Esener, T.
    Aim To determine the influence of various irrigating solutions on the accuracy of the electronic apex locator facility in the Tri Auto ZX handpiece. Methodology One hundred and forty teeth with single canals and mature apices, scheduled for extraction for either periodontal or prosthetic reasons in 76 patients were used. Following informed written consent local anaesthesia was administered, access cavities were prepared and pulp tissue removed. The teeth were then randomly divided into seven groups according to the irrigating solutions used. The root canal length measurements were completed using the Tri Auto ZX handpiece with automatic reverse function in the presence of one or other of the following solutions: 0.9% saline, 2.5% NaOCl, 3% H2O2, 0.2% chlorhexidine, 17% EDTA, Ultracaine((R)) D-S or in the absence of an irrigating solution (control). Files were immobilized in the access cavity with composite resin. After extraction, the apical regions of the teeth were exposed and the file tips examined under a stereomicroscope. Distances between the file tips and the apical constriction were measured (mm) and analysed using a one-way ANOVA and post hoc Tukey test. Results Mean distances from the apical constriction to the file tip were longer in the 0.9% saline group (P < 0.05). There was no statistically significant difference on file tip position between the other solutions. Conclusions Tri Auto ZX gave reliable results with all irrigating solutions apart from in the presence of 0.9% saline.

    Reinforcement effect of polyethylene fibre in root-filled teeth: comparison of two restoration techniques
    (Wiley, 2006) Belli, S.; Erdemir, A.; Yiıdırım, C.
    To compare in vitro two different fibre placement techniques on reinforcement of root-filled molar teeth with mesio-occluso-distal (MOD) cavities. Fifty sound extracted human mandibular molars were used (n = 10). Group 1 served as control. From group 2-5, endodontic access and standard MOD cavities were prepared. Following root canal treatment, group 2 was kept unrestored. In groups 3 and 4, the teeth were restored with composite resin (AP-X; Kuraray, Japan). A groove was prepared on occlusal surface of the finished restorations in group 4 from buccal to lingual direction. Polyethylene woven fibre (Ribbond; Seattle, WA, USA) was inserted in the groove in combination with flowable resin that was cured for 20 s and covered with composite resin. Cavity surfaces were covered with flowable resin in group 5, and polyethylene fibre was placed into the bed of resin in a buccal to lingual direction before the composite restoration was placed. All specimens were stored in 100% humidity at 37 degrees C for 24 h. Compressive loading of the teeth was performed by a universal testing machine at a crosshead speed of 0.5 mm min(-1) until failure. The data were recorded in Newton and submitted to ANOVA and Tukey post hoc test. The mean load necessary to fracture the samples in each group was: G1: 1671.57 +/- 131.54(a); G2: 375.21 +/- 34.30(b); G3: 749.47 +/- 124.54(c); G4: 1224.36 +/- 132.17(d); G5: 926.88 +/- 118.28(e). Different superscript letters demonstrate significant difference between groups. Polyethylene fibre use over or under MOD composite restorations significantly increased fracture strength. However, when the fibre was placed on the occlusal surface of the restoration in buccal to lingual direction, significantly higher fracture resistance was observed.
