This study compared the coronal microleakage of three restorative materials used to seal the access cavity in root treated teeth. Thirty six teeth were prepared and three experimental groups were obturated and the access cavity filled with different materials; Group A--Intermediate Restorative Material, Group B--Fuji II and Group C--Dyract AP. Microleakage was assessed by Indian ink penetration. The mean coronal dye leakage for Group A was 0.895 mm, for Group B 1.914 mm and for Group C 3.245 mm. There was significantly (p < 0.05) more dye leakage in teeth restored with Dyract AP compared to those with Fuji II or IRM.
