Adhesives in endodontics. Part II: Role of adhesion in root canal obturation

bacOne of the recent trends in endodontics is the development of adhesive obturation materials to improve the seal quality in root canal fillings and to strengthen roots. This review discusses the materials utilising dentine adhesive technology in endodontics in an attempt to provide a monoblock for rehabilitation of the root canal space and to achieve mechanically homogenous units with the root dentine. This article is the second part of a two-part series on adhesives in endodontics. Part I covered the limitations and effects of different materials and can be found in ENDO (Lond Engl) 2009;3:185-204. Palabras clave: adhesion, adhesives, monoblock, obturation, resin-based sealer
