RESULTS OF ROOT CANAL SHAPING IN SMALL MOLARS USING THE RACE EVO FILE SYSTEM EXPERIMENTALLY
Main Article Content
Abstract
Objective: Evaluate the results of root canal shaping in small molars using the Race Evo file system experimentally. Materials and Methods: The study was conducted on 51 extracted upper first premolars collected at the School of Dentistry - Hanoi Medical University from December 2023 to January 2024. The research method is uncontrolled experimental research, random sample selection according to criteria until enough studies. Results: 51 maxillary first premolars had 107 root canals. Final image creation file: file 30.04 (11.21%), file 40.04 (88.79%). The centering ability of the Race Evo file system is best at a position 8mm from the tip, lowest at a position 3mm from the tip. Change in curvature after shaping: Change (2.23 ± 0.66) in the curvature of the root canal. Results of root canal preparation: 100% good. Conclusion: The Race Evo file system is a file system with good and effective root canal shaping capabilities for endodontic treatment.
