Abstract
Objective: This study aims to evaluate the centering ability and canal transportation of the ProTaper Next, One
Curve, and TruNatomy instruments in curved root canals. Methods: Forty-five curved mesiobuccal canals of
human mandibular molar teeth were selected, randomly divided into 3 groups, and prepared using the ProTaper
Next, One Curve, and TruNatomy files. Cone Beam Computed Tomography images of the cross-sectional planes at
1 mm, 3 mm, 5 mm, and 7 mm from the apical foramen were determined before and after the preparation. For each
specified millimeter canal transportation and centering ability were measured. Statistical analysis was performed
and compared all groups. Results: No significant differences were observed between the groups or root canal levels
in both canal transportation and centering ability (p > 0.05). Conclusion: The TruNatomy system demonstrated
comparable results with both predecessor ProTaper Next and One Curve single-file systems.
