Özet
Introduction: The aimed of the study was to evaluate apically extruded debris from teeth that were instrumented with full-sequenced files using a new kinematic technique (optimum glide path [OGP] motion). Materials and Methods: Seventy-two single-rooted lower bicuspid teeth with a single canal were divided into four groups (n = 18) based on the kinematics of rotation motion, 90° OGP motion, 90° clockwise (CW)-90° counter CW (CCW) motion, and 90° CW-120° CCW motion. Preweighed Eppendorf tubes were used to collect debris. The weight of the dry extruded debris was calculated by deducting the initial tube weight from the end weight. The Kruskal-Wallis test and the least significant difference for pairwise comparisons test were used to statistically assess the data (P < 0.05). Results: In comparison to the rotation motion, the 90° OGP motion extruded the least quantity of debris, which was statistically significant (P < 0.05). Conclusions: The findings suggest that a 90° OGP motion delivers the best results regarding extruded debris through the apical foramen.
