Figure

• 

  Fig. 1 Cross-sectional view of the sealer-root dentin interface for Group 1(All-Bond 2) showing the hybrid-like layer between arrowheads. (original magnification ×1000)(D: dentin, H: hybrid layer, G: gutta-percha)

• 

  Fig. 2 Cross-sectional view of the sealer-root dentin interface for Group 2 (Prime and Bond NT). Arrowhead indicates AH26 and adhesive penetrate into dentinal tubules. (original magnification ×800)

• 

  Fig. 3 Inner dentinal surface of vertically split root. The white arrowheads indicate the AH26 sealer process and the open dentinal tubule. (original magnification ×900) (S: AH26 sealer, T : dentinal tubule)

• 

  Fig. 4 Cross-sectional view of the sealer-root dentin interface for Group 4 (AH25 only without treatment EDTA). Arrowhead indicates the dentinal tubule without sealer or adhesive. (original magnification ×1500)
