Abstract

Aim

This study aims to produce and evaluate the sealing ability of a novel endodontic sealer with conventional AH Plus sealer.

Material and Methods

Some materials in powder form were mixed in different percentages by spatulating method in 5 separate groups (A, B, C, D, E). The study of sealing ability was performed on 60 human extracted teeth. The mass of the Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) was found in the space adjacent to the filler using the adsorption and calibration curve coefficient.

Results

Group C showed the best sealing properties compared with other groups, and its sealing effect was similar to AH Plus as a commercial sealer (p<0.05).

Conclusion

The suitable sealing ability of group C can be due to the simultaneous presence of two polycaprolactones (P767 and P787) in its composition.
