This systematic review and meta-analysis was sought to assess whether intentional foraminal enlargement (IFE) is responsible for extrusion of a larger quantity of debris from extracted human teeth with fully formed apexes. Following the recommendations of Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis - PRISMA, electronic and manual searches were performed to identify studies that evaluated the extrusion of debris, comparing different apical limits of instrumentation (with/without IFE). The quality of the studies selected was evaluated, and statistical analysis was conducted. To perform the meta-analysis, just 3 papers could be used. The heterogeneity was high, however; there was no statistically significant difference in relation to the extrusion of debris in teeth either submitted or not submitted to IFE. The general risk of bias was moderate. In conclusion, IFE is not responsible for extrusion of a larger quantity of debris from extracted human teeth with fully formed apexes.

Introduction: This systematic review and meta-analysis assess the impact of the XP-endo Shaper (XPS) on postoperative pain following root canal treatment (RCTs) and compare its efficacy with other endodontic systems.
Methods: A comprehensive literature search was conducted in MEDLINE, Web of Science, Embase, and the Cochrane Library from January 2000 to August 2024. Randomized controlled trials using XPS and reporting postoperative pain were included.

Aims And Background: Failure of the endodontic treatment might be due to various reasons like zipping, apical blockade, ledging, debris extrusion, etc. Apical debris extrusion in primary teeth is of major concern as it does not have a proper well-developed apex, that is, mature apex. This study aims to compare and evaluate the apical debris extrusion in primary molars using three different pediatric rotary file system.

Background: Periapical extrusion of debris for root retreatment will effectively improve the posttreatment inflammation and pain. The aim of this study was to investigate the extruded debris for root retreatment using XP shaper and ProTaper files.
Materials And Methods: In his experimental laboratory study, 40 extracted human maxillary molars were used in this laboratory study.

: Apical extrusion of debris can affect the success of endodontic treatments, and the specific performance of certain retreatment systems has not been studied yet. Therefore, the aim of this in vitro study was to quantitatively assess the amount of apically extruded debris produced during retreatment procedures using three rotary NiTi retreatment systems in mature non-resorbed straight roots. : Thirty extracted permanent human teeth with single straight roots were selected.

Background And Objectives: Although effective irrigation methods are crucial for pulpectomy in primary teeth (PT), no consensus exists on the best technique. This study guides clinicians in making evidence-based choices for irrigation techniques in PT.
Design: This study reviewed in vitro and in vivo research on PT using an extensive electronic search up to April 2024.
