INTRODUCTION The aim of the study was to evaluate the cleanliness of the walls of root canals with incomplete development of root, whose lumen was rinsed with 2% chlorhexidine solution during mechanical preparation. MATERIAL AND METHODS Use was made of 8 maxillary premolar teeth with a single root canal and with incomplete development of the root apex (the teeth were removed during the growin...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of irrigation regimens on dentin microhardness at the furcation area of mandibular molars, using sodium hypochlorite and ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), individually and in alternation. The occlusal surface and the roots of 20 non-carious extracted human permanent mandibular molars were cut transversally and discarded. The tooth blocks we...

BACKGROUND Proton pump inhibitors are used in endodontic disinfection of root canals for elimination of enterococcus faecalis. This invivo study on Wistner Rats is carried out to determine antimicrobial efficacy of proton pump inhibitor in combination with sodium hypochlorite & Mixture of Isomer of tetracycline, acid and detergent (MTAD) against E. Faecalis Materials & Methods: Periapical lesio...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Evolution in understanding the poly-microbial environment of both endodontic infections and that of failed root canal treatments has been debatable over the years. The present study was designed to compare and analyze the effect of various root canal irrigation solutions on certain endodontic pathogens in vitro. MATERIALS AND METHODS To analyze in vitro the zone of i...
