Sažetak

Chloroform has been the most widely used solvent in endodontic retreatment, but due to concerns about its safety, alternatives have been sought. The purpose o f this study was to compare the effectiveness of gutta-percha removal and time of retreatment between eucalyptol and chloroform used as solvents. Thirty single root teeth were sterilized, prepared, obturated, and stored in 0.9 % physiological solution (Na- Cl) for seven days, after which they were randomly divided into two groups for retreatment. The teeth were retreated using either eucalyptol or chloroform as the solvent. Retreatment was deemed complete when there was no evidence o f gutta-percha on the files or paper points. Teeth were split longitudinally and photographed. The surfaces of remaining gutta-percha and sealer were measured using computer software. The results showed no significant difference in gutta-percha removal between the two groups.
