Original Title:
Comparative study on cleaning efficacy of two single file systems in oval canals: waveone and self-adjusting file

Συγκριτική μελέτη της καθαρότητας ωοειδών ριζικών σωλήνων μετά από επεξεργασία με δύο συστήματα ενός εργαλείου: WaveOne και Self-Adjusting File
Summary:
The purpose of this study was to examine the cleaning efficacy of the WaveOne
system and compare it with the SAF system in terms of debris and smear layer
removal under optical microscopy.Twenty four single rooted, intact permanent
human premolars with one main apical foramen and mature apices were selected.
All teeth were checked for single-canal anatomy and for the presence of an oval
canal. They were divided into two homogenous groups. Group A was subjected to
chemo-mechanical preparation with the SAF system, whereas Group B was processed
using the WaveOne system.Following, specimens were split longitudinally and
examined under an optical microscope. The obtained pictures were evaluated for
the presence of debris and smear layer at the cervical, middle and apical
levelsThe recordings of the two groups were statistically analyzed.In the
cervical root third the SAF-group exhibited statistically significant better
cleaning efficacy compared to the WaveOne-group. In the middle and apical third
the difference was not statistically significant though a tendency was noted,
with lower scores for SAF-group.Under the conditions of this study, the SAF
system showed better cleaning efficacy in the cervical root third compared to
the WaveOne system. No significant differences were detected in the middle and
apical third.
