Aim: The aim of this study was to evaluate the apical extrusion of irrigants in simulated immature teeh, comparing convencional irrigation with other negative pressure irrigation devices. Materials and methods: 48 samples of simulated immature teeth were set up in an adapted model to contain the extravasated irrigant and evenly distributed into 4 groups (n=12) according to the device used: Convencional Irrigation Group (CI), EndoVac Group (EV), Pulp Sucker Group (PS) and Ivac Group (IV). The samples were irrigated with 15mL of irrigant solution, consisting of 10mL NaOCl 2,5% and 5mL EDTA 17%, in na alternating sequence. The samples’ weights were measured using a precision scale before and after the irrigation procedures, with the difference between de final and initial weights considered the volume of extravasated irrigant. Data were collected and statistically analyzed by Kruskal-wallis and Fisher exact tests. Results: The groups that used negative pressure devices significantly promoted a lower volume of extruded irrigant than the CI group (p<0,05), with no significant differences between the negative pressure groups (p>0,05). There were signficant differences in the association between the groups and irrigant extrusion, with the PS group showing significantly less association with irrigant extrusion (p<0,005). Discussion: Previous studies have indicated that negative pressure devices are safe alternatives to convencional irrigation when considering irrigant extrusion. Conclusion: Conventional irrigation promoted a significantly greater volume of irrigant extrusion when compared to negative pressure irrigation devices. The PulpSucker system showed irrigant extravasation in significantly fewer samples.
