Sažetak
Leakage examination was performed using fluid transport system measuring movement of an air bubble. Tested techniques were cold lateral condensation technique, Touch`n Heat and Thermafil technique. Root canals were obturated with gutta-percha in combination with AH Plus and RoekoSeal sealers. After storing in saline solution, microleakage was measured in intervals of one month, six months and one year. The minimum microleakage values were obtained in all intervals in canals obturated using cold lateral condensation technique, while maximum values were obtained in Thermafil technique (p< 0.05). Significantly more leakage was found for all tested techniques in the interval of 12 months after obturation (p< 0.05). There was no difference between obturation quality between RoekoSeal and AH Plus, no matter what obturation technique was used.
