Abstract

The aim of this study is to compare three bioceramic materials in retrograde seals, evaluating their
microfiltration using transparent ink on diaphanized parts through a stereomicroscope. Forty freshly extracted
single-rooted teeth were used, which were standardized to 16 mm. Root canal treatment was performed
on them, and 3 mm were cut from their root tip, and were prepared with ultrasound. They were randomly
divided into three groups and were filled with Biodentine®, MTA®, and Root Repair Material®. After applying
Staedtler® ink for 72 hours, we proceeded to transparent and measure them. The results showed that the MTA®
was the material presenting less microfiltration followed by Biodentine® and, finally, Root Repair Material.
Differences between them were not statistically significant, with an error rate of 95%.
