The aim of this review was to systematically assess the literature on cytotoxicity of root canal irrigants and intracanal medicaments on stem cells of the apical papilla. A structured strategy was employed and 7 papers were identified. The papers were analysed for concentration of agent used, testing method and viability of stem cells of the apical papilla (SCAP). Irrigation protocols using a f...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the antibacterial efficacy copper added chitosan nanoparticles (CU-CNPs) as an irrigation solution with different irrigants in terms eliminating Enterococcus Faecalis (E. faecalis) from root canals. Fifty mandibular premolar teeth were prepared and infected E. faecalis for 21 days. After incubation period, samples randomly divided into a control group irrig...

The purposes of this study were to investigate the reliability and efficiency of a new evaluation method for resin bonding to root canal dentin, which measures both marginal adaptation and shear bond strength simultaneously, and to determine the effects of root canal irrigants on resin bonding. A wet bonding system (Single Bond) and a self-etching primer system (Clearfil Mega Bond) were employe...

Objective: This systematic review aimed to discuss a possible effect of sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) over the novel severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), new generation corona virus, which was reported firstly in December 2019 Wuhan, China. Methods: Electronic search performed for studies up March 31, 2021 following databases: PubMed, LILACS, BBO, Scopus, web science and ...

apical extrusion of debris and irrigants during cleaning and shaping of the root canal is one of the main causes of periapical inflammation and postoperative flare-ups. the purpose of this study was to quantitatively measure the amount of debris and irrigants extruded apically in single rooted canals using two reciprocating and one rotary single file nickel-titanium instrumentation systems.sixt...

canal preparation generates a substantial amount of debris and smear layer (sl). the size and taper of the master apical file (maf) affects on penetration of irrigants and subsequently canal cleaning efficacy. the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of maf size and taper on penetration of irrigants to the apical third of curved mesiobuccal (mb) canals of mandibular first molars.eighty-...
