Abstract
AbstractThis research was aimed to evaluate push‐out bond strength and apical‐microleakage after application of three different calcium silicate‐based cements with irrigation solutions on simulated immature teeth. 40 maxillary permanent canine teeth were used for push‐out bond strength test, and 120 maxillary permanent incisors were used for microleakage evaluation. 120 root slices were divided into four main groups (EDTA, Chitosan, Phytic acid, and Saline) and immersed these solutiouns according to irrigation procedures. Each irrigation group was divided into 3 subgroups (Biodentine, MTA Repair HP, and NeoPUTTY). The prepared teeth were divided into four groups according to irrigation procedure for microleakage test. EDTA irrigation with Biodentine group showed highest push‐out bond strength value and saline group with Neoputty showed the lowest push‐out bond strength value. The highest microleakage value was seen in saline group with MTA Repair HP, while the lowest microleakage value was observed chitosan with Biodentine group. Chitosan and phytic acid solutions can be recommended as an alternative irrigation solution to 17% EDTA in single‐session apexification treatment, since they are non‐toxic, naturally occurring materials, effectively remove the smear layer, and have a positive effect on bond strength and apical leakage.Research HighlightsOne of the factors affecting the long‐term success of root canal treatment is a hermetic seal. Non‐hermetic or inadequate filling triggers a chronic inflammatory reaction in periapical tissues, causing fluids to enter the spaces and negatively affecting the success of the treatment. Therefore, this study will help clinicians choose the right biomaterial and irrigation solution that will affect the success of root canal treatment.
