The aim of this study was to evaluate the differences in setting times based on the methods for dental root canal sealers and calcium silicate cement used in root-end filling. Five kinds of dental root canal sealers and four kinds of calcium silicate cement for root-end filling were selected for the experiments. All materials were mixed according to the manufacturers’ instructions and stored at 37 ℃ with a relative humidity of 95%. Setting time was measured using a 1/4 pound Gillmore needle and a 1 pound Gillmore needle to determine the time until indentation was no longer visible or the time until 2 mm penetration was no longer possible. The determination of indentation was based on the absence of visible impressions on the material surface when Gillmore needle was placed vertically. When comparing indentation time and penetration time using same type of Gillmore needle, only ProRoot MTA using 1 pound Gillmore needle showed significant difference between measuring methods (P<0.05) while there are no differences in measuring methods in other materials (P>0.05). By this study, we could expect to measure a setting time relatively similar to real clinical conditions through indentation method.
