AI Article Synopsis
- - The study evaluated how well 2.5% sodium hypochlorite can dissolve swine pulp tissue using different agitation methods, including manual and ultrasonic techniques.
- - Twelve lower first premolars were used, divided into groups based on agitation method and time, comparing 1-minute and 2-minute protocols.
- - Results showed that longer agitation times improved tissue removal, and while no significant differences were found between the agitation methods after 2 minutes, increasing the number of cycles within any group boosted effectiveness.
Article Abstract
Aims: This study aimed to assess the dissolving capacity of 2.5% sodium hypochlorite using eight agitation protocols within swine pulp tissue.
Subjects And Methods: Twelve lower first premolars were prepared and split into the fragments with a groove housing porcine dental pulp. Groups were assigned based on agitation systems: manual, passive ultrasonic, Easy Clean and XP-Endo Finisher. Two agitation time protocols were applied: One min (3 s × 20 s cycles) and 2 min (6 s × 20 s cycles). Wilcoxon Mann-Whitney test was used to compare the groups.
Results: Both time frames demonstrated superior results compared to manual group ( > 0.5). However, in the two min groups, no significant differences were observed among the other protocols ( < 0.5). Intriguingly, increasing cycle numbers significantly improved results within each group ( > 0.5).
Conclusion: Extending the chemical agitation time during final irrigation enhances tissue removal, regardless of the irrigation protocol employed.
