Resumo

Dental materials should be stable over time. This study investigated volumetric change of the root canal sealers AH Plus, Fill Canal, and Sealapex; and the root-end filling materials Biodentine, IRM, and MTA after different periods of immersion in distilled water. Resin models were manufactured with cavities 3 mm deep. The cavities were filled with the materials and scanned by microcomputed tomography after setting, and after 7 and 30 days immersed in distilled water. Percentages of volumetric changes after 7 and 30 days of immersion were compared by West. ANOVA/Tukey tests were used to compare endodontic materials (5% significance level). All root canal sealers had an increase in their volumetric change after 30 days. Among root-end filling materials, only IRM showed difference between the periods. Biodentine showed more volumetric changes than MIA, but both materials kept their volume from 7 to 30 days. In conclusion, the immersion period of endodontic materials may affect their stability.
