Sažetak

The aim of the study was to evaluate the adaptation and quality of root fillings achieved by the lateral condensation, vertical condensation, Thermafil, Ultrafil and Obtura II techniques. Seventy-five straight and curved root canals of extracted human teeth were prepared according to the crown-down / step-back technique using 3% sodium hypochlorite. Apical patency was verified with a size 15 K-file and five groups of 15 root canals were formed for the different obturation techniques. Roekoseal Automix was used as sealer in all cases. Teeth were radiographed for overall material adaptation and filling material extrusion. There were no significant differences in the overall canal obturation and radiographic density and adaptation to canal walls. All thermoplastic obturation techniques demonstrated acceptable root canal filling and sealed well with no statistically significant difference between them and in comparison to lateral condensation. Root canal fillings were radiographically dense and well adapted throughout the entire root canal system.
