The aim of this study was to compare the cleaning efficacy of three irrigant activation devices with a control of non-activated syringe and needle irrigation in curved root canals. Sixty human curved roots were endodontically prepared and divided into four groups (n = 15) with similar root curvature distributions. Final irrigation using 4% NaOCl was performed with a syringe and needle (30-G) alone, or with Eddy sonic powered irrigation system (polymeric tip #0.

Purpose: This study aimed to compare the biofilm removal and apical extrusion of sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) following machine-assisted irrigation using a three-dimensionally (3D) printed dentin-insert model.
Methods: Multispecies biofilms were formed in a 3D-printed curved root canal model with dentin insert. The model was then placed in a container that was filled with 0.

This study compared the efficacy of several passive ultrasonic irrigation (PUI) systems in removing intracanal medicament using 3-dimensionally printed root canal model assembled with dentin specimen. After the placement of the model in the agar container (37°C), the intracanal medicament was removed using three different PUI instruments including CK file, Irrisafe and Endosonic Blue. Then, the area coated by the medicament and the volumetric percentage of the remaining medicament was measured.

Aim: To apply an innovative three-dimensionally printed tooth model to investigate the efficacy of three ultrasonically activated irrigation (UAI) systems in removing multispecies biofilms from dentine samples.
Methodology: Three-dimensionally printed teeth with a curved root canal were fabricated with a standardized slot in the apical third of the root to achieve precision fit of human root dentine specimens. Multispecies biofilms including Enterococcus faecalis, Streptococcus mitis and Campylobacter rectus were developed in the root canal for 21 days.

Endosonic files are prone to constraint; this reduces their efficiency, particularly in the apical third and in curved root canals. Precurving the file may reduce constraint, thereby improving the file's ability to debride. This investigation was undertaken to compare both straight and precurved endosonic files as to debris and smear layer removal.
