Development of Novel Root Canal Obturation Techniques Using Prototype Obturators in Conjunction With a Resin-Based Hybrid Root SEAL (MetaSEAL) Soft Paste Sealer

These results highlight the prototype obturator's superior sealing and void reduction. Canal size influenced sealing efficacy, emphasizing the need for appropriate instrument size selection. Further studies should assess performance in complex root anatomies and human teeth.
