title: [Physico-chemical properties of 4 endodontic sealing cements].
abstract: Four endodontic sealers were compared with two series of tests, in thin layer and in 10 mm long and 5 mm diameter rods. Under these conditions, the Pulp Canal Sealer showed the best ability to present a thin layer and the same flow than the Cortisomol. Its setting time was 15 minutes. Forty-eight hours later, the Sealite showed a very good tightness compared to the other sealers. At 30 days, the Pulp Canal Sealer and the OZn-Eugénol were the tightest ones. Less water was absorbed with the Cortisomal and the Sealite. Is there, for these sealers, any correlation between water-absorbtion and tightness?
