Micro-computed tomography evaluation of dentinal micro-cracks after preparation of curved root canals with ProTaper Gold, WaveOne Gold and ProTaper NEXT instruments

The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of rotary (ProTaper NEXT [PTN] and ProTaper Gold [PTG]) and reciprocating (WaveOne Gold [WOG]) systems in dentinal microcracks generation after preparation of curved root canals using micro-computed tomographic (micro-CT) analysis.
