Abstract

Objectives: The introduction of nickel-titanium alloy endodontic instruments has greatly simplified shaping the root canal systems. However, these new instruments have several unexpected disadvantages. One of these is tendency to screw into the canal. In this study, the influence of taper on the screw-in effect of the Ni-Ti rotary instrument were evaluated. Materials and Methods: A total of 20 simulated root canals with an S-shaped curvature in clear resin blocks were divided into two groups. ProFile .02, .04, .06 (Dentsply-Maillefer) and GT rotary files .08, .10, .12 (Dentsply) were used in Profile group, and K3 .04, .06, .08, .10, and .12 (SybronEndo, Glendora) were used in K3 group. Files were used with a single pecking motion at a constant speed of 300 rpm. A special device was made to measure the force of screw-in effect. A dynamometer of the device recorded the screwin force during simulated canal preparation and the recorded data was stored in computer with designed software. The data were subjected to one-way ANOVA and Tukey's multiple range test for post-hoc test. p value of less than 0.05 was regarded significant. Results: The more tapered instruments generated more screw-in forces in Profile group (p < 0.05). In K3 group, 0.08, 0.10. and 0.12 tapered instruments showed more screw-in force than 0.04 tapered one, and 0.08 and 0.12 tapered instruments showed more screw-in force than 0.06 tapered one (p < 0.05). Conclusions: The more tapered instruments seems to produce more screw-in force. To avoid this screw-in force during instrumentation, more attention may be needed when using more tapered instruments.

연구목적: 니켈-티타늄 금속을 근관치료기구에 도입함으로써 근관형성과정이 매우 단순화되었다. 그러나 이러한 새로운 기구는 단점도 함께 가지고 있는데 그 중 하나가 근관내로 기구가 빨려 들어가는 경향이다. 본 연구에서는 니켈-티타늄 전동파일의 경사도가 screw-in effect에 미치는 영향을 평가하고자 하였다. 연구 재료 및 방법: 총 20개의 S-자형 투명레진블록 (Dentsply-Maillefer) 근관에서 두 군으로 나누어 실험하였는데 Profile군에서는 0.02, 0.04 그리고 0.06 경사도의 Profile (Dentsply-Maillefer)과 0.08, 0.10 그리고 0.12의 경사도의 GT Rotary file (Dentsply-Maillefer)을 사용하였고 K3군에서는 같은 경사도의 K3 file SybronEndo)을 사용하였으며, 분당 300회전의 일정한 속도에서 단일 pecking 동작으로 기구조작을 하였다. 특수한 장치를 고안하였으며 장치내 dynamometer를 이용하여 screw-in effect를 측정하여 one-way ANOVA로 통계처리하고 Tuckey's multiple range test로 사후검정하였다. 결과: Profile 군에서는 큰 경사도의 기구가 더 큰 screw-in force를 나타내었고 (p < 0.05), K3군에서는 0.08, 0.10. 및 0.12 경사도의 기구가 0.04 경사도의 기구에 비해, 0.08 및 0.12 경사도의 기구가 0.06 경사도의 기구에 비해 더 큰 screw-in force를 나타내었다 (p < 0.05). 결론: 기구의 경사도가 클수록 screw-in force가 많이 발생하는 것으로 생각되며, 경사도가 큰 전동화일을 사용시에는 screw-in force를 억제하기 위해 더 많은 주의가 요구될 것으로 생각된다.
