In this recent study, researchers in Ghent, Belgium conducted a study "To evaluate ex vivo the long-term sealing ability of the SE Resilon Epiphany system as an apical root-end filling material. A total of 60 standardized horizontal bovine root sections were divided into three groups filled with either gutta-percha with AH 26, tooth-coloured mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) or Resilon pellets with Epiphany SE, and submitted to capillary flow porometry at 48 h, 1 and 6 months to assess the minimum, mean flow and maximum pore diameters."
"Results of the different materials and results by material and time were analysed statistically using nonparametric tests; the ...
