Abstract

Introduction: This study compared the cyclic fatigue and the canal transportation promoted by Twisted File (TF) Adaptive and Navigator EVO systems when used with 2 different motions. Methods: Forty mesiobuccal roots of maxillary molars were scanned by using micro computed tomography imaging before and after root canal preparation with the 2 instrument systems used with 2 motions (adaptive and continuous rotation). Samples were divided into 4 groups: TFA, TF Adaptive instruments under adaptive motion; TFC, TF Adaptive instruments under continuous motion; NA, Navigator instruments under adaptive motion; and NC, Navigator instruments under continuous motion. Root canals were prepared until 35.04 instruments. Apical transportation was analyzed by using micro computed tomography at 3 levels: 3, 6, and 9 mm from the apex. The cyclic fatigue tests were performed by using a custom-made device. Ten instruments of each brand were activated by using a 6:1 reduction handpiece powered by a torque-controlled motor using the preset programs ``custom mode{''} and ``TF Adaptive{''} to activate 25.06 and 35.04 instruments. Kruskal-Wallis and Dunn tests were used to assess canal transportation, centering ability, and canal volume. The Student t test was used to evaluate cyclic fatigue (P = .05). Results: At 3 and 9 mm, the canal transportation and centering ability were similar in all groups (P > .05). At 6 mm, TFC presented higher canal transportation toward furcal region than NA and NC (P < .05). After canal preparation, TFA promoted great dentinal excision, presenting higher canal volume than NA and NC (P < .05). Higher cyclic fatigue resistance was observed under continuous than adaptive motion (AU)
