Removal efficacy of two different root canal sealers in retrograde cavities: a micro-CT study
Both AHR and AHB sealers demonstrated effective removability when the retrograde cavity was prepared using ultrasonic tips, and the choice of irrigation solution did not influence cleaning efficiency. However, the extended preparation time for AHB suggests the need for additional caution and effort during its removal in retrograde cavity preparation.
