    Aim: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the adequacy of three different obturation techniques namely, the conventional lateral compaction, warm vertical compaction (SybronEndo, System B) and a core carrier obturation technique (DENTSPLY, GuttaCore) using three-dimensional Cone beam computed tomography (Care Stream CS 9000 3D CBCT) to measure the pulp space volume. Materials and Methods: The study sample comprised of 30 freshly extracted human mandibular and maxillary single-root premolars which were randomly divided into three groups of 10 teeth each. Biomechanical preparation was done in all teeth using WaveOne primary reciprocating files. All three sets of teeth were imaged in Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) scanner before and after obturation. Volume of the pulp space before and after obturation were calculated using OnDemand3D software and adequacy of the obturation t.. View More»
