Apical Sealing Ability of Two Calcium Silicate-Based Sealers Using a Radioactive Isotope Method: An In Vitro Apexification Model

The aim of this study was to evaluate and compare the sealing ability of two calcium silicate-based sealers (TotalFill BC RRM Fast Set Putty and White ProRoot MTA) when used as apical plugs in immature teeth through nuclear medicine. Single-rooted extracted teeth (n = 34) had their crowns and root t...

Single-rooted extracted teeth (n = 34) had their crowns and root tip sectioned to obtain 14 mm long root segments to simulate an in vitro apexification model.

On the 4th day after placing the respective apical plug, the apical portions of the teeth were submerged in a solution of sodium pertechnetate (<sup>99m</sup>TcNaO<sub>4</sub>) for 3 h. Statistical analysis showed a significant difference between the MTA group and the controls (<i>p</i> < 0.05). The BC group had a significant difference regarding the negative control (<i>p</i> < 0.001) but showed no statistical significance regarding the positive control (<i>p</i> = 0.168). There was a statistically significant difference (<i>p</i> = 0.009) between the BC group (7335.8 ± 2755.5) and the MTA group (4059.1 ± 1231.1), where the last showed less infiltration.
