Resilon as a filling material
Introduction
Optimal root canal filling material must achieve the following characteristic :-
-Prevent leakage -dimensionally stable . -noncarcinogenic -biocompatible . -radiopaque .
This essay seek to illustrate the comparison between resilon and other filling material from ; the point of long-term , fracture resistance , Microleakage and Antimicrobial Activity . A-long term :-
at Texas A&M university college of dentistry one hundred tooth has been treated , 50 teeth treated by resilon and 50 with gutta-percha . all cases had no radiolucencies at the radiograph . other risk factor has been evaluated '' age , sex , location of the tooth '' , the result was 65% of resilon obturated teeth were successful …show more content…
Group c and Group d 12 roots were used as control groups (positive and negative). The final results resilon has less microleakage compared to get gutta-percha .
D&E-relation with anti-microbial activity :-
Measuring the doxycycline stability with gutta-percha compared resilon , elimination of microorganisms in the root canal is a must to achieve an optimal root canal treatment , the study showed that the amount of remaining doxycycline with gutta-percha higher than resilon .
Measuring the MTAD stability with gutta-percha compared resilon , 90 tooth divided to 3 groups according to the obturation material , the activity of MTAD with with gutta-percha was higher the teeth obturated resilon .
Conclusion:-
-resilon had higher chance of failure compared with gutta-percha .
-resilon had Hight fracture resistance and it could be an alternative to with gutta-percha .
-reslion achieved less microleakage than with gutta-percha .
-remaining amount of anti-bacterial with reslion is less compared to with
