Article Synopsis
- Study highlights the importance of using effective antibacterial agents for successful endodontic treatments by comparing silver diamine fluoride (SDF) and chlorhexidine gluconate (CHX) against bacterial infection in root canals.
- A total of 44 teeth were prepared and inoculated with Enterococcus faecalis to test the efficacy of the two agents in reducing bacterial colonies.
- Results indicated that both SDF and CHX were significantly more effective in sterilizing root canals compared to control groups, suggesting SDF as a viable option for irrigation in endodontics.
