| Abstract | ||
| The aim of this study was to evaluate the apical sealing ability of GuttaFlow2 obturation material using dye penetration method. Palatal roots of forty five extracted maxillary first molars were instrumented with ProTaper rotary files to size F4. The teeth were divided into three experimental groups according to type of sealer used, group1: root obturated with AH Plus sealer and single cone technique, group2: root obturated with GuttaFlow2 sealer and single cone technique, group3: root obturated with GuttaFlow2 sealer only. Results: Data was subjected to statistical analysis. P-Value<0.05 was considered as significant. The results of this study showed that Gutta-Percha/AH Plus showed the lowest mean of leakage with no statistically significant difference with group2 and statistically difference between Gutta-Percha/AH Plus and group3. Conclusion: The use of GuttaFlow2 with a single gutta-percha master cone creates an apical seal that is equivalent to that produced with gutta-percha/AH Plus sealer using single cone technique, GuttaFlow2 when used as only creates a poorer sealing than when used with single cone techniques. | ||
