Abstract
AIM: Evaluation of the impact of three different obturation techniques on the penetration depth and adaptation of a bioceramic root canal sealer(BioRoot RCS) to root dentin using scanning electron microscope and confocal laser scanning microscope. MATERIALS AND METHODS: = 15) were used for measuring the adaptation of sealers to radicular dentin using a scanning electron microscope. STATISTICAL ANALYSIS: test. RESULTS: ≤ 0.05) was achieved with warm vertical condensation in comparison to the injectable gutta-percha method and lateral condensation obturating techniques. CONCLUSION: At all three root levels (coronal, middle, and apical), warm vertical condensation technique exhibited more sealer penetration with minimum gaps, whereas lateral condensation technique exhibited more gaps and less sealer penetration.
