Comparison of clinical application of iRoot SP and Gutta Flow2 root canal sealer
Objective To investigate the postoperative emergency response and short-term clinical effect of Gutta Flow2,iRoot SP and conventional root canal sealer(AH-plus)in one-time root canal treatment.Methods Selected 123 af-fected teeth in our hospital from June 2021 to January 2023,and divided them into three groups randomly,among which the Gutta Flow2 group and iRoot SP group are the experimental group,and the AH-plus group is the control group.41 teeth in Gutta Flow2 group were treated with Gutta Flow2 root canal sealer combined with single-cusp method.41 teeth in iRoot SP group were treated with iRoot SP root canal sealer combined with single-cusp method.AH-plus group One-time root canal treatment with AH-plus combined with hot gutta-percha.The root canal filling quality,root canal filling time,postoperative pain VAS score and emergency response were compared among the three groups.The above data were statistically analyzed using SPSS 19.0 statistical software.Results The filling time of the two experiments groups and the Ah-plus group was significantly reduced,and the difference was statistically significant.There was no statistically significant difference in root canal filling quality among the three groups.There was no statistical difference between the Gutta Flow2 group and the iRoot SP group at the four time points(P>0.5),and there were statistical differences between the two groups at 1 day and 3 days after operation compared with the AH-plus group in the control group.The posterior pain index was lower than that of AH-plus group.The pain scores of Gutta Flow2 group and AH-plus group were compared at 1 day after operation,t=4.314,P<0.05,and t=4.080,P<0.05 at 3 days after operation.The pain score of the iRoot sp group and the AH-plus group was t=4.903,P<0.05 at 1 day after operation;the pain score at 3 days after operation was t=4.669,P<0.05.There was no statistical difference between the two groups at 5 days and 7 days after operation compared with the AH-plus group in the control group.Compared with Gutta Flow2 group(9.76%)and Ah-plus group(23.0%)x2=0.734,P=0.391,there was no statistical difference between the two groups.Compared with the iRoot sp group(4.90%)and the Ah-plus group(23%)x2=5.145,P=0.023,there was a statistical difference between the two groups.Conclusion Gutta Flow2 and iRoot SP combined with single-point obturation technology can achieve good clinical effect in one-time root canal treat-ment,and the incidence of postoperative pain is low.
