OBJECTIVE To compare the shaping ability of WaveOne, Reciproc and OneShape single-file systems in severely curved root canals in extracted human molar teeth. METHODS Sixty mandibular molars with mesio-buccal canals with curvatures ranging between 25° and 35° and radii of curvature ranging between 4 and 9 mm were divided into three groups of 20 teeth each: group W (WaveOne), group R (Reciproc) and group O (OneShape). Using standardized pre- and post-instrumentation radiographs, straightening of canal curvatures was determined using the NIH Image J software. A double-digital standardized radiographic technique was used to determine apical transportation at 0.5 mm from the working length (1.5 mm coronal to the major foramen). Preparation time and instrument failures were also recorded. Data were analysed using one-way analysis of variance (anova) and post-hoc Tukey-test. RESULTS During root canal preparation, no instruments fractured but all OneShape instruments were deformed after preparation of four canals. The use of OneShape resulted in significantly greater canal straightening and apical transportation than WaveOne and Reciproc (P < 0.05), with no significant differences between WaveOne and Reciproc (P > 0.05). Instrumentation with OneShape was significantly faster than with WaveOne and Reciproc (P < 0.05), whilst Reciproc was significantly faster than WaveOne (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS All instruments were safe to use. Reciproc and WaveOne instruments respected the original canal curvature better than OneShape files. The use of OneShape instruments required less time to prepare the curved canals compared with Reciproc and WaveOne.

D008963 Molar The most posterior teeth on either side of the jaw, totaling eight in the deciduous dentition (2 on each side, upper and lower), and usually 12 in the permanent dentition (three on each side, upper and lower). They are grinding teeth, having large crowns and broad chewing surfaces. (Jablonski, Dictionary of Dentistry, 1992, p821) Molars
D003786 Dental Pulp Cavity The space in a tooth bounded by the dentin and containing the dental pulp. The portion of the cavity within the crown of the tooth is the pulp chamber; the portion within the root is the pulp canal or root canal.

D019252 Radiography, Dental, Digital A rapid, low-dose, digital imaging system using a small intraoral sensor instead of radiographic film, an intensifying screen, and a charge-coupled device. It presents the possibility of reduced patient exposure and minimal distortion, although resolution and latitude are inferior to standard dental radiography. A receiver is placed in the mouth, routing signals to a computer which images the signals on a screen or in print. It includes digitizing from x-ray film or any other detector.
