The document summarizes a study that evaluated the marginal adaptation of three root canal sealers - epoxy resin-based MM-Seal, MTA-based MTA Fillapex, and bioceramic sealer EndoSequence BC - to root canal dentin using scanning electron microscopy. The study found that MM-Seal showed superior adaptation to dentin, while MTA Fillapex showed the poorest adaptation. Apical regions generally showed larger marginal gaps than coronal regions for all sealers. The results suggest that epoxy resin-based sealers may provide better sealing than bioceramic or MTA-based sealers.
The document discusses various root canal obturation techniques and materials. It describes the monoblock concept of creating a continuous solid layer from the dentin wall to the core filling material. Resilon and Epiphany sealer are introduced as alternatives to gutta-percha that form a monoblock unit due to adhesion. Other techniques discussed include EndoREZ points coated with resin, ActivGP which uses glass ionomer to coat gutta-percha, and Smartseal which uses hydrophilic polymer points that expand to fill voids. Mineral trioxide aggregate is also summarized due to its biocompatibility and uses including pulp capping and root repair.
The document discusses the history and development of dental bonding systems. It describes the key differences between first, second, and third generation bonding agents. First generation agents from the 1960s produced weak bonds of 2-3 MPa and had high failure rates. Second generation agents from the 1970s-1980s left the smear layer intact and achieved bonds of 4.5-6 MPa. Third generation "total-etch" systems from the 1990s removed the smear layer prior to bonding and produced stronger bonds of 16-26 MPa approaching that of enamel. The three-step approach of conditioning, priming, and applying adhesive resin was developed to strongly bond to both enamel and dentin.
The document discusses tooth-colored restorative materials and procedures for their use. It describes different types of tooth-colored materials including composite resins, glass ionomer cements, and compomers. It also discusses dental adhesion/bonding systems and the development of dentin bonding agents. Cavity preparation designs for tooth-colored restorations include conventional, beveled conventional, and modified preparations. The clinical procedure for placing a tooth-colored restoration involves local anesthesia, isolation, cavity preparation, acid etching, bonding agent application, composite insertion, and finishing procedures.
microleakage in restorative dentistry/rotary endodontic courses by indian den...Indian dental academy
Microleakage is a major cause of restorative failure and occurs due to microscopic gaps between filling materials and tooth structure. The smear layer, a byproduct of cavity preparation, may provide a pathway for microleakage along its granular constituents or through microchannels in its structure. While some studies found removal of the smear layer decreased microleakage, others found it increased permeability or had no effect. In endodontics, the smear layer's presence impacts the seal of root canal fillings and ability of sealers to adhere, but results are conflicting on whether its removal improves or worsens the seal. Overall, the smear layer's role in microleakage is complex and depends on the materials and techniques
This document discusses factors that affect bonding to intraradicular dentin in endodontics. It covers differences between coronal and radicular dentin, how instrumentation can create a smear layer, and how various endodontic materials and procedures like irrigation, bleaching, and retreatment can impact bonding. Root canal anatomy and the inability to control moisture present unique challenges for achieving effective adhesion. Resin-based sealers and core filling materials that utilize adhesive technology are also discussed as ways to potentially improve bonding and sealing of root canals.

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune DiseaseHealth Advances
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.

Overall life span (LS) was 1671.7±1721.6 days and cumulative 5YS reached 62.4%, 10 years – 50.4%, 20 years – 44.6%. 94 LCP lived more than 5 years without cancer (LS=2958.6±1723.6 days), 22 – more than 10 years (LS=5571±1841.8 days). 67 LCP died because of LC (LS=471.9±344 days). AT significantly improved 5YS (68% vs. 53.7%) (P=0.028 by log-rank test). Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: N0-N12, T3-4, blood cell circuit, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells-CC and blood cells subpopulations), LC cell dynamics, recalcification time, heparin tolerance, prothrombin index, protein, AT, procedure type (P=0.000-0.031). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and N0-12 (rank=1), thrombocytes/CC (rank=2), segmented neutrophils/CC (3), eosinophils/CC (4), erythrocytes/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), stick neutrophils/CC (8), leucocytes/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (error=0.000; area under ROC curve=1.0).

4. INTRODUCTION
The primary objective of root canal
obturation is to obtain a fluid hermetic seal.
According to Strindberg and Allen:
long-term endodontic failure is due to lack of
complete canal seal.
[Dent Res J (Isfahan) 2014;11:599-603.]
5. To overcome these drawbacks new systems
have been introduced to enhance the sealing
ability.

24. In this study, scanning electron microscope
was utilized for marginal gap assessment.
The advantage of using SEM over various
micro leakage methods is, in SEM
defects at the submicron level can be
observed at required magnification.
final evaluation can be done by preserving
microphotographs.
25. The major function of a root canal sealer:
Fill imperfections
Increase adaptation of the root filling material to the canal
walls.
An ideal RC sealer:
Biocompatible.
low surface tension
Better wettability
About 60% of endodontic failures are due to inadequate filling
of root canal space.
[Muliyar et al., J Int Oral Health 2014;6:99-104.]
good penetration into irregularities
fluid tight seal
26. Adhesion of RC sealer to root dentin is a
basic requirement of any root filling material.
In the present study, MM-Seal showed
superior marginal adaptation and MTA
Fillapex showed poor adaptation.
Higher interfacial gaps were observed at the
apical level of all sealer types than at the
coronal level.

Alkalinity of BC bye-products
Hydrophilic nature of polymeric endodontic
points uses residual moisture and expands
radially without expanding axially forming a
self-seal on setting.
30. In spite of better penetration, marginal
gaps were observed with Endosequence BC
sealer.
Decreased wetting ability of the dentin
surface prohibited the adhesion of any
hydrophilic materials like EndoSequence BC
sealer.
31. MTA Fillapex, showed statistically significant difference
compared to MM-Seal and EndoSequence BC sealer groups.
Sarkar et al. suggested that calcium and hydroxyl ions will be
released in the presence of phosphate containing fluids which will
result in the formation of apatite that promotes controlled
mineral nucleation on dentin which can be seen as the formation
of an interface layer with tag-like structures.
[Physicochemical basis of the biologic properties of MTA.
J Endod 2005;31:97-100.]
MTA Fillapex
32. According to a study done by Nagas et al.,
there is better bonding of MTA Fillapex when
the canals are finally rinsed with distilled water
and blot dried with paper points to
achieve moist condition.
[Dentin moisture conditions affect the
adhesion of root canal sealers. J Endod
2012;38:240-4.]
33. However in this study, MTA Fillapex displayed
little or no tags under SEM which may be
attributed to the unpredictable moisture content
in the canal.
The reason for the inferior marginal
adaptation of MTA Fillapex could be the low
adhesion of the material due to poor microtags
formed on setting.
34. Sealer penetration and adaptation in the dentinal
tubules: a scanning electron microscopic study.
Balguerie E et al.
Conclusion:
The tubular penetration and adaptation varies with the
different physical and chemical properties of the sealers used.
AH Plus showed the most optimal tubular penetration and
adaptation to the root canal wall of the sealers tested.
Journal of Endodontics 2011 Nov;37(11)
35. Interfacial adaptation and thickness of bioceramic-
based root canal sealers.
Al-Haddad et al.
Conclusion:
Bioceramic-based sealers exhibited more gap-
containing regions when compared with AH Plus.
EndoSequence BC sealer produced the highest sealer
thickness.
Dental Materials Journal 2015;34:516-21.
36. Dentin moisture conditions affect the adhesion of
root canal sealers.
Nagas et al.
Conclusion:
The degree of residual moisture significantly
affects the adhesion of root canal sealers to
radicular dentin. For the tested sealers, it may be
advantageous to leave canals slightly moist before
filling.
J Endod 2012 Feb;38(2):240-4.
37. Evaluation of Apical Micro-leakage of Different
Endodontic Sealers in the Presence and Absence of
Moisture
Ehsani et al.
Conclusion:
AH26 provided the least apical micro-leakage under dry
conditions while ZOE had the highest micro-leakage under
moist conditions.
MTA Fillapex provided acceptable apical seal regardless
of moisture.
J Dent Res Dent Clin Dent Prospects 2014;8:125-9.
38. Evaluation of the apical sealing ability of bioceramic
sealer, AH plus & epiphany: An in vitrostudy
Pawar et al.
Conclusion:
Newer root canal sealers like Endosequence BC, AH
plus & epiphany seal the root canal better but cannot
totally eliminate leakage.

39. Bacterial leakage in root canals filled with resin-based
and mineral trioxide aggregate-based sealers
Dent Res J 2014 Sep-Oct; 11(5): 599–603.
Razavian et al.
Conclusion:
Both AH26 & Fillapex had bacterial leakage.
Sealing ability of AH26 was significantly higher than
that of Fillapex
40. Push-out bond strength of two new calcium silicate-
based endodontic sealers to root canal dentine.
Sagsen et al.
Conclusion:
MTA Fillapex had the lowest push-out bond values to
root dentine compared with other sealers.
Int Endod J 2011 Dec;44(12):1088-91.
41. Within the limitations of this study apical halves
showed poor adaptation regardless of the material
used than the coronal halves.
Epoxy resin-based MM-Seal showed good
marginal adaptation than the Bioceramic sealer
(EndoSequence BC sealer) and MTA Fillapex.
Further studies are essential to confirm its clinical
superiority.
Editor's Notes
Gutta–percha with sealer is the most often used solid core material in endodontic obturations.[1] However, Gutta–percha does not bond to root dentin. Moreover, over a period microleakage occurs at the sealer-core or sealer-dentin interface resulting in failure of root canal treatment.
It utilizes moisture within the dentinal tubules to initiate and complete setting reaction.
Expand laterally and does not shrink on setting resulting in superior marginal adaptation.

ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid
Samples were randomly divided into three groups based on the sealer used:
EndoSequence verifier that fit the prepared canal space was selected
as the chances of crack formation in the tooth structure as well as the material will be minimal.
The highest marginal gap was seen in Group 2 and
the lowest marginal gap was observed in Group 1
The main goal of obturation is to provide a three dimensional seal, thereby preventing the reinfection of root canal and
preserving the health of periapical tissues.
Gutta–percha along with sealer is considered to be
gold standard in root canal therapy. In spite of its various
advantages,
