| Abstract | ||
| Aim: The aim of this study was to evaluate the apical sealing ability of three different endodontic sealers using dye penetration method. Materials and Methods: Palatal roots of forty five extracted maxillary first molars were instrumented with ProTaper rotary files to size F4. The teeth were divided into three experimental groups according to type of sealer used, group1: root obturated with AH Plus sealer and single cone technique, group2: root obturated with ActiV GP sealer and single cone technique, group3: root obturated with GuttaFlow2 sealer and single cone technique. Data was subjected to statistical analysis. P-Value<0.05 was considered as significant. Results: The results of this study showed that Gutta-Percha/AHPlus showed the lowest mean of leakage. There was statistically difference between Gutta-Percha/AHPlus and the two contemporary single cone techniques ActiV GP and GuttaFlow2 Conclusion: AH Plus showed the least leakage compared to ActiV GP and GuttaFlow2. | ||
