Intratubular viability assessment following root canal instrumentation with rotary and reciprocating systems via fluorescence microscopy.

The present in vitro study aimed to compare the effectiveness of the WaveOne and ProTaper Gold systems in removing the biofilm. Thirty-eight mandibular premolars were selected. The root canals were assigned to standard control (canals serially enlarged with ProTaper Gold S1-S2-F1-F2, n=15) and experimental (canals enlarged with Primary WaveOne file, n=15) groups.

The Effectiveness of Sonic-Activated Irrigation in Reducing Intratubular .

Introduction: The purpose of this study was to compare the effectiveness of sonic activation and syringe irrigation of 5.25% sodium hypochlorite in removing the ( ) biofilm.

Methods And Materials: Root canals of 54 extracted human single-rooted central incisors were prepared with ProTaper S1-S2-F1-F2 and Gates Gliden burs size 1, and 2 at the working length.
