Methods One hundred five mandibular central incisor teeth were selected. Fifteen teeth were left unprepared (control group), and the remaining 90 teeth were assigned to the 5 root canal shaping groups as follows (n = 15): adaptive motion, 90° CW-30° CCW, 150° CW-30° CCW, 210° CW-30° CCW, continuous rotation, and hand file. All the roots were sectioned horizontally at 3, 6, and 9 mm from the apex with a low-speed saw under water cooling, and the slices were then viewed through a stereomicroscope at 25× magnification. Digital images of each slice were captured using a camera to determine the presence of dentinal cracks. Results No cracks were observed in the control group, and the continuous rotation group had more cracks than the reciprocation groups (90° CW-30° CCW, 150° CW-30° CCW, and 210° CW-30° CCW) (P <.05). Both the continuous rotation and adaptive motion groups had significantly more dentinal cracks than the hand file group (P <.05). Regarding the different sections (3, 6, and 9 mm), there was a significant difference between the experimental groups at the 9-mm level (P <.05). Conclusions The incidence of dentinal cracks is less with TF Adaptive instruments working in 210° CW-30° CCW reciprocating motion compared with working in continuous rotation and adaptive motion.
