XP-Endo Finisher behaviour and irrigant temperature in intracanal environment: Clinical measurements.

Aim: To evaluate the behaviour of the XP-Endo Finisher and the variation in the intracanal temperature of the irrigant at rest and when activated over time.

Methodology: Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) determined the transformation temperatures of XP-Endo Finisher instruments. A digital thermocouple was used to measure the temperature of the irrigant inside the pulp chamber.

Effect of Foraminal Enlargement on Periapical Healing in Necrotic Teeth: A Systematic Review.

Introduction: Foraminal Enlargement (FE) is a cleaning performed in the apical-most region of the tooth, in order to optimize root disinfection. This systematic review evaluated the influence of FE during root canal treatment on bacterial reduction and repair of the periapical lesion.

Materials And Methods: Searches in PubMed/MEDLINE, Scopus, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, Embase, Scielo, Lilacs and OpenGrey were performed until January-2024.
