Micro-CT Evaluation of EndoSequence BC Sealer HiFlow Performance by Technique

Abstract

Objective: Bioceramic sealers have demonstrated many qualities requisite of an ideal sealeroutlined by Grossman. Biocompatibility, radiopacity, and antimicrobial properties are some of thequalities that have increased the sealers widespread demand and use. EndoSequence BC SealerHiFlowTM is advocated for use in both the single cone (SC) and warm vertical compaction (WVC)techniques. The aim of this study was to compare the obturation quality of the two techniqueswith EndoSequence BC Sealer HiFlowTM in the apical 6 mm of obturated root canals, usingmicro-CT evaluation of the relationship between the sealer, gutta-percha, and canal wall.
