Analysis Between Shutter Techniques, Side Condensation, Condensation With Single Cone Technique And Condensation With Tagger Hybrid Technique. Literature Review

Abstract

The obturation is part of the endodontic treatment, being responsible for filling the modeled root canal by means of obturator materials. For this process, the professional should choose the method that best fits and has the highest security, always remembering to value the sealing of the apical, middle and coronary thirds. Among the various obturator techniques, three widely used in dentistry were analyzed, each one with its peculiarities, being lateral condensation, currently the most widespread technique in dentistry, single cone obturation, considered a technique of easy work and with good apical sealing., and TAGGER's hybrid technique, due to its thermoplasticization, is considered to have a more homogeneous obturator mass. It is noteworthy that each of these techniques, in addition to advantages, brings with it unique and particular disadvantages, so knowledge becomes indispensable for choosing which technique the professional will use to perform a satisfactory endodontic treatment. Since there is no single method for obturation, and having the anatomical complexities of the elements to be filled as a hindrance, the analysis for the choice of technique should continue to evaluate conduit shape, conduit thickness, presence of accessory channels and ability to use the technique chosen.
