To compare different file system in removing root canal debris- An vitro study
Nikita Sood

Background: Debris is the dentin chips, pulp remnants, and particles loosely attached to the root canal wall. The present study was conducted to compare different file system in removing debris. Materials & Methods: The present study was conducted on 60 freshly extracted mandibular premolars. The extracted teeth were divided into 2 groups of 30 teeth each. In group I, teeth were prepared with Protaper next file system and group II, teeth were prepared with hero shaper file system. Scoring for debris was done using Hulsmann criteria. Results: The mean debris score at coronal third in group I was 3.18 and in group II was 3.22, at middle third was 2.88 in group I and 2.99 in group II, at apical third was 2.34 in group I and 3.65 in group II. The difference was significant at apical third (P< 0.05). Conclusion: Authors found that Protaper next file system is better in removing debris as compared to Hero shaper and K3 file system.
