Abstract

The purposes of this study were to compare the apical terminus width of simulated curved root canal prepared with three NiTi file systems used by undergraduates for evaluation the effects of flute angle and pitch or radial land on reducing screw-in effect and to determine more safe NiTi file system for inexperienced operators. Fifty inexperienced undergraduate students prepared 150 simulated curved root canals in resin blocks with three NiTi file systems ; ProFile$^{(R)}$, Hero Shaper$^{(R)}$, K3$^{TM}$. The electric motor set at a speed of 300 rpm and torque of 30 in a 16 : 1 reduction handpiece was used. The simulated root canal was prepared to ISO #25 sizes with each file system. The scanned images of pre- and post-instrumented canal of resin block were superimposed. To evaluate the screw-in effect of three NiTi file systems, apical terminus width of root canal was measured from superimposed images and statistical analysis was performed. There were significant differences in three NiTi flle systems. ProFile$^{(R)}$ had significantly smaller width than Hero Shaper$^{(R)}$ and K3$^{TM}$"" (P < 0.05), but no significant difference was observed between K3$^{TM}$ and Hero Shaper$^{(R)}$. Under the condition of this study, active file system (Hero SHaper$^{(R)}$, K3$^{TM}$) with variable pitch and helical angle had more screw-in effect than passive file system (ProFile$^{(R)}$) with constant pitch and helical angle. It seems that the radial lands play more important role in reducing screw-in effect.

학생들이 사용한 세 가지 NiTi file systems (ProFile$^{(R)}$, Hero Shaper$^{(R)}$, K3$^{TM}$)을 사용하여 성형한 모형 근관의 apical terminus width를 비교하여 flute angle 및 pitch 혹은 radial land가 screw-in effect에 미치는 효과를 알아보고자 하였다. NiTi file의 사용 경험이 없는 부산대학교 치과대학 4학년 학생 50명이 세 종류의 NiTi file systems- Pro File$^{(R)}$ (Dentsply Maillefer, Ballaigues, Switzerland), K3$^{TM}$ (SybronEndo, Glendora, France), Hero Shaper$^{\circledR}$(Micromega, Besancon, France)-을 사용하여 각 system으로 하나의 근관씩, 모두 150 개의 레진 블락 근관모형 (Endo Training Bloc; Dentsply Maillefer, Ballaigues, Switzerland)을 16 : 1 감속 handpiece를 장착한 electric motor (Tecnika ATR, Pistola, Italy)를 사용하여 300 rpm의 속도에서 torque는 30 (Tecnikamotor setting value)으로 성형하였다. 스캐너로 근관 성형 전 후 이미지를 채득하여 중첩한 후 근단부의 최종 폭경을 측정하였다. 통계분석은 one-way ANOVA와 95% 신뢰도의 Scheffe's multiple range test로 사후 검증하였다. ProFile$^{(R)}$의 근관 성형 후 근단부의 폭이 Hero Shaper$^{(R)}$ and K3$^{TM}$에 비해 통계학적으로 유의하게 작았다. 본 연구의 결과에서 근단부의 과도한 확대가 variable pitch와 helical angle를 가진active file에 비해 con-stant pitch와 helical angle을 가짐에도 불구하고 radial land를 가진passive file에서 적게 나타났다. 이 결과로 추정해 볼 때, variable pitch와 helical angle보다는 근본적으로 radial land가 screw-in effect의 예방에 더 큰 역할을 하는 것으로 추정될 수 있다 따라서 NiTi file의 사용 경험이 없는 초심자의 경우 근단부 폭경의 유지능력이 좋은 ProFile$^{(R)}$의 사용이 추천된다.
