Background: The aim of the study was to measure the percentage of root canal fillings in long oval canals obturated
with thermoplasticized gutta-percha techniques, Beefill 2in1® and
Thermafil Obturators®.
Material and Methods: Fifty four mandibular incisors were selected after bucco-lingual and mesio-distal radiographs showed at 5 mm from apex an internal long: short diameter ≥2. Teeth were instrumented with Protaper Universal and divided in two groups of 27. Group 1 was obturated with Thermafil Obturators® and group 2 with Beefill
2in1®. Two horizontal sections were cut at 5 and 7 mm from the apex and photographed in a stereo-microscope.
The total area of the canal and filled canal in cross-sections were measured with AutoCad and the percentages of
gutta-percha-sealer and voids in the canal were obtained.
Results: Both systems achieved high percentage of filled canal, Thermafil 96.8% and Beefill 2in1 98.9%. The percentages of voids in both groups were very low. No significant differences were found between the two groups. The
percentage obtained at 5 and 7 mm from the apex in both groups showed no significant dif
ference.
Conclusions: The percentages of filled canal (gutta-percha-sealer) were high and these two thermoplasticized techniques are suitable for long oval canals obturation.
