Abstract：AIM:To compare the effects of warm vertical technique and cold lateral condensation techniques with iRoot SP on the filling of C-shaped root canals.METHODS:80 mandibular molars with C-shaped root canal were randomly divided into 2 groups (n =40).Root canals in group 1 were filled by warm vertical technique with AHplus,while those of group 2 by cold lateral condensation technique with iRoot SP.The evaluation on the effects of each technique was made according to filling effect and clinical effect.RESULTS:The number of proper apical sealing,over-obturation and under-obturation in group 1 was 36,3 and 1;while that in group 2 was 34,2 and 4,respectively;3 patients complained of pain in group 1,while 2 in group 2 (P ＞ 0.05).At 3 m follow-up,the total effective rate of group 1 was 97.5％ and that of group 2 was 95.0％ (P ＞ 0.05).CONLIUSION:The C-shaped root canals can be effectively filled with warm vertical technique or cold lateral condensation technique.
