A mathematical model for root canal preparation using Endodontic file

Aim: To develop the mathematical model for root canal preparation using Endodontic file. Method: The process of obturation consist of the filling of the root canal cavity using heated and softened gutta-percha to get the fluid tight seal in between the canal wall and filled gutta-percha. Any obturat...

description Aim: To develop the mathematical model for root canal preparation using Endodontic file. Method: The process of obturation consist of the filling of the root canal cavity using heated and softened gutta-percha to get the fluid tight seal in between the canal wall and filled gutta-percha. Any obturation process to perform before it requires the preparation of the root canal which involves the removing dead tissue, substrates and debris from the decayed root canal. The various geometric parameters viz. Taper, relative angle for orientation of cross-section between two planes, pitch and polar symmetry constant of the Endodontic file etc. Geometric parameters are derived. The various performance parameters like Endodontic file life assessment, cutting force components (tangential and normal), substrate removal rate, torque exerted by Endodontic file etc are also derived successfully. The Endodontic file life is estimated based on two approaches viz. speed and volumetric wear approach. Conclusion: The mathematical model described is helpful for the Endodontic experts, researchers, design engineers etc. However the applicability of the described mathematical model limited to assumption of study. The gap between root canal to be prepared and Endodontic file is zero while preparation. The Endodontic file weight, speed of rotation and substrate removal rate is assumed to be constant. The mathematical model for Endodontic file discussed above proved to be efficient tool for studying the root canal preparation. The various geometric parameters and the various performance parameters are derived.
