Quantitative evaluation of the apically extruded debris from root canals prepared by single-file rotary and reciprocating file systems: An study.

Aim: The aim is to investigate and compare the amount of apically extruded debris after root canal preparation using single rotary and reciprocating file system.

Materials And Methods: Forty single-rooted human mandibular premolars with straight canals were randomly assigned to four groups ( = 10). The root canals were instrumented according to the manufacturers' instructions using single-rotary file systems Hyflex EDM (HEDM), One Shape (OS) and single-reciprocating file systems Wave OneGold (WOG) and OneRECI (OR).

Comparative evaluation of antifungal activity of Sodium Hypochlorite, Calcium Hypochlorite and modified Salt Solution associated with passive ultrasonic irrigation against - An study.

Aim: The study evaluated the antifungal activity of sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl), calcium hypochlorite (Ca(OCl)), and modified salt solution (MSS) assisted with passive ultrasonic irrigation against .

Materials And Methods: One hundred and thirty-six single-rooted premolars were decoronated and enlarged up to a file #45, autoclaved, inoculated with . , and incubated for 72 h.

Effects of conventional and herbal irrigants on microhardness and flexural strength of root canal dentin: An study.

Aim: The aim of this study was to compare the effects of herbal irrigants with conventional irrigants on microhardness and flexural strength of root dentin.

Materials And Methods: Sixty extracted permanent maxillary canines were selected. Decoronated roots were sectioned longitudinally into buccal and lingual segments to get 120 specimens.

In Vitro Evaluation of the Antimicrobial Efficacy of Four Endodontic Biomaterials against Enterococcus faecalis, Candida albicans, and Staphylococcus aureus.

Root canal sealers that possess good antimicrobial property can prevent residual and recurrent infection and contribute to successful endodontic therapy. This study evaluated the antimicrobial activity of four endodontic sealers, AH Plus, Tubliseal EWT, EndoRez, and iRoot SP, against three different microorganisms, E. faecalis, C.

Comparison of the efficacy of ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid and maleic acid in the removal of three calcium hydroxide intra-canal dressings: A spiral computerized tomography volumetric analysis.

Aim: To assess the efficacy of 17% ethylene diamine tetra acetic acid and 7% maleic acid in the removal of 3 calcium hydroxide preparations placed as intracanal medicaments.

Materials And Methods: The root canals of 60 single rooted premolars were prepared with a step back technique and randomly assigned into 3 experimental groups (n= 20). Group A was filled with plain calcium hydroxide mixed with distilled water in which barium sulfate was added for radio opacity, Group B was filled with Apexcal and Group C was filled with Metapex.
