Outcome of Endodontic Treatment in Patient Treated With a Hydraulic Sealer

January 29, 2020 updated by: Giulia Bardini, Cittadella Universitaria
The objective of the study is to evaluate and compare, clinically and radiographically, the outcome of non surgical primary/secondary root canal treatment using a hydraulic sealer or a zinc oxide-eugenol sealer.

  • Allocation: Randomized
  • Interventional Model: Parallel Assignment
  • Masking: Single

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Hydraulic Sealer Group

The single-cone obturation technique is based on a master cone of gutta-percha in conjunction with a hydraulic sealer.

Hydraulic endodontic cements exhibit excellent hydraulic properties, biocompatibility and bioactivity.

Active Comparator: Zinc oxide-eugenol Sealer Group
The continuous wave of condensation of gutta-percha and a zinc oxide-eugenol (ZOE) sealer is a gold standard in endodontic obturation.
