Abstract

Numerous factors including root canal preparation, obturation, post space preparation and retreatment impose a direct or indirect impact on the fracture resistance of teeth. The present in-vitro study was undertaken to compare the fracture resistance of teeth following canal preparation by differently designed file systems.
