Study Compares Calcium Silicate vs. Epoxy Resin-Based Root Canal Sealers in Endodontic Treatments

Posted: January 1, 2025
A retrospective cohort study compared the outcomes of root canal treatment using calcium silicate-based sealer with cold hydraulic condensation vs. epoxy resin-based sealer with warm vertical compaction. Both techniques showed similar success rates (91.5% and 94.9% respectively). Sealer extrusion rates were comparable (27.6% vs. 36.2%) with no resorption observed. No significant prognostic factors influencing treatment outcomes were identified. The study highlights the comparable success of both sealers and emphasizes the importance of proper obturation techniques in achieving favorable endodontic results.
