Article Synopsis
- The Neuroform Atlas Stent System is a new hybrid device designed for treating unruptured aneurysms, combining elements of both open and closed cell stents.
- A study involving 30 patients showed the stents were successfully delivered and positioned in 29 cases, with most aneurysms demonstrating significant improvement post-treatment.
- The Atlas stent is safe and easy to implant with fewer complications compared to other stents, but its low thrombogenic potential may result in incomplete aneurysm occlusion over time.
Objectives: The purpose of this study was to measure and compare the root canal cleanliness and smear layer removal effectiveness of Aquatine Endodontic Cleanser (Aquatine EC) when used as an endodontic irrigating solution in comparison with 6% sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl).
Material And Methods: Forty-five human teeth were randomly allocated to five treatment groups; the pulp chamber was accessed, cleaned, and shaped by using ProTaper and ProFile rotary instrumentation to an ISO size #40. The teeth were then processed for scanning electron microscopy, and the root canal cleanliness and removal of smear layer were examined.
