Micro –Computed Tomography Assessment of Dentinal Micro-cracks after Root Canal Preparation with TRUShape and Self-Adjusting File Systems

The aim of the present study was to evaluate the percentage frequency of dentinal micro-cracks observed after root canal preparation with TRUShape and Self-Adjusting File (SAF) systems by means of micro –computed tomography imaging analysis. A conventional full-sequence rotary system (BioRace) and a single-file reciprocation system (Reciproc) were used as reference techniques for comparison because of their known assertive cutting efficiency.
