In vitro study evaluates fracture resistance in teeth filled with three bioceramic sealers, indicating differing strengths.

The study aims to compare the fracture resistance of root canals filled with three types of bioceramic sealers after endodontic treatment.
Forty mandibular premolars were divided into five groups based on obturation methods.
Group 1 used BioActive RCS, Group 2 used CeraSeal, and Group 3 used Cerafill RCS, alongside positive and negative controls.
Fracture resistance was measured with a universal testing machine following a 7-day incubation period.
CeraSeal had the highest fracture resistance at 804.02 N (p < 0.05).
Cerafill RCS showed 701.16 N, and BioActive RCS demonstrated 643.39 N.
Significant differences were found between experimental and control groups.

Pratheeba et al. (2026) studied this question.
