RESUMO

The aim of the present studywas to evaluate the effectiveness of the Reciproc #25 instrument in reaching the apical foramen of mandibular molars root canals without any manual glide path. For this, a general sample of 300 mandibular molars was radiographed and graded accordantly the degree of curvature (Schneiders criteria) classes I and II. After applying the inclusion and exclusion criteria, a total of 502 root canals were included to form the two experimental groups: 253 canals in the class Igroupand 249 in the class II group. All canals were instrumented directly with R25 file, without any manual glide path, carefully following the manufactures guidelines. The pooled results of two experimental groups showed that the R25 instrument was able to reach the apical foramen without glide path in 93.4% of the cases. In 6.4%, the instrument R25 was unable to reach the apical foramen and in only 0.2% of the cases occurredinstrument fracture (one fracture in the class I group andnone in the class II group). The chi-square test was accomplished to verify that a certain class of channels is more associated with or without the need for glide path when the Reciproc system is used. . In the group of class II molar higher number of channels (23) that the instrument was not able to go to the apical foramen than in the molar class I (9), and this difference was statistically significant (Chi-square test, p = 0.020, X2 = 5.452) Within the experimental conditions of this study, it can be concluded that the file R 25 showed to be a highly effective instrument in the instrumentation of the entire length of the canals of mandibular molars class I and II without prior glide path. In addition, the instrumentation system was shown to be highly safe in the rate of fracture.
