Objective: This study investigated the effect of passive ultrasonic irrigation (PUI) on diffusion of hydroxyl ions through radicular dentine.

Materials And Methods: After chemomechanical preparation of root canals in 60 human teeth, the cementoenamel junction and the apical 3 mm of each root were covered with fast-setting adhesive. Four final irrigation protocols were applied (n = 10): group (G)1: irrigation with EDTA + NaOCl; G2: EDTA + PUI + NaOCl; G3: EDTA+(NaOCl + PUI); G4: (EDTA + PUI) + (NaOCl + PUI).
