Abstract
Coronal leakage of bacteria through unsealed, apically obturated canals is investigated using a new in vitro model system.
Coronal leakage of bacteria from saliva into root canal filling materials is a potential cause of failure. This problem may be more pronounced when only a small volume of obturating material remains in the canal, such as after post preparation. In this study, coronal leakage of bacteria through unsealed, apically obturated canals was investigated using a new in vitro model system.
