الوصف: | Background: The efficiency and safety of root canal preparation are significantly influenced by the surface topographies of rotary files. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) provides high-resolution imaging that can reveal detailed surface characteristics of these instruments. Materials and Methods: In this study, three types of rotary files (File A, File B, and File C) were used to prepare the root canals of extracted human molar teeth. A total of 30 molar teeth were divided into three groups (n = 10) and prepared using one of the three rotary files. After preparation, the rotary files were analyzed using AFM to measure surface roughness parameters including average roughness (Ra), root mean square roughness (Rq), and maximum peak height (Rp). Statistical analysis was performed using ANOVA and post hoc tests to compare the differences between the groups. Results: The AFM analysis revealed significant differences in the surface topographies of the rotary files. File A exhibited a Ra of 150 nm, a root mean Rq of 180 nm, and a maximum peak height Rp of 300 nm. File B showed an average roughness (Ra) of 200 nm, a root mean Rq of 230 nm, and a maximum peak height (Rp) of 350 nm. File C had an average roughness (Ra) of 170 nm, a root mean Rq of 210 nm, and a maximum Rp of 320 nm. Statistical analysis indicated that File B had significantly higher roughness parameters compared to File A and File C (P < 0.05). Conclusion: The surface topographies of rotary files vary significantly, which may impact their performance in root canal preparation. File B, with the highest roughness parameters, may pose a greater risk of canal wall damage and debris retention. These findings underscore the importance of selecting appropriate rotary files to optimize endodontic treatment outcomes. |
