Sealing root canal system is necessary to maintain the disinfection attained by the preparation. Several root filling techniques and sealers have been presented to reach this requisite. The aim of this study was to evaluate the apical sealing in teeth filled using Lateral Condensation, Tagger's Hibrid and Thermafil techniques analyzing quantitatively the leakage of the Methylene Blue dye. The canals of 40 extracted teeth were endodontically prepared and separated into three experimental groups according to the filling technique used, and into two control groups. There was no statistically significant difference among the three root canal filling techniques evaluated.Downloads
