Abstract

Objective: To analyze in vitro, using optical and electron microscopy, the effect of different cleaning methods on the dentin of root canals prepared for prosthetic post placement. Materials and Methods: Forty incisors with partial endodontic fillings were selected and prepared for prosthetic post placement to a standardized length of 15 mm using size 2 and 3 drills. The samples were divided according to cleaning method (n = 10 per group). Group 1: distilled water-17% EDTA-distilled water-passive irrigation. Group 2: distilled water-Irrisonic tip-ultrasonic activation. Group 3: distilled water-endobrush-type brush-ultrasonic activation. Group 4: 17% EDTA-endobrush-type brush-ultrasonic activation. The longitudinally fractured specimens were examined under a stereomicroscope and scanning electron microscope, and images were analyzed using image-processing software. The Kruskal-Wallis and Pearson’s chi-square test were applied. Results: Under optical microscopy, Group 4 achieved the highest cleanliness scores, followed by Groups 1, 3, and 2, with statistically significant differences (Chi2 p
