This systematic review was designed to answer the following question: Does chitosan
provide better smear layer removal and antimicrobial efficacy than other root canal irrigants …

Aim This study aimed to investigate 2‐year changes in periapical trabecular patterns in
single‐rooted teeth with apical periodontitis using fractal analysis and periapical index (PAI) …

The present study aimed to evaluate bacterial viability after the use of different disinfection
protocols in root canals infected with a multispecies biofilm (MB) formed in situ. Palatal roots …

Aim To investigate the influence of pulse energy, tip geometry and tip position in simulated
3D‐printed root canals with multiple side canals at different levels in all directions on the …

This study evaluated push-out bond test (POBT), surface roughness, and antimicrobial
properties against Enterococcus faecalis of bioceramic sealers supplemented with silver …

Endodontic therapy aims at preventing or curing apical periodontitis. To conduct this, the
cleaning and shaping of the canals are essential. By using an irrigant, such as sodium …

Purpose: This study aimed to compare the antibacterial effectiveness of passive ultrasonic
irrigation (PUI), Er, Cr: YSGG laser (WTL), and photon-induced photoacoustic streaming …

Objectives This study is aimed to evaluate the cleaning efficacy of five different irrigation
systems as SonicMax, RinsEndo, EndoVac, passive ultrasonic irrigation (PUI), and manual …

Irrigation represents a crucial step in endodontics for bacteria disinfection and smear layer
removal. Several irrigation strategies have been proposed, although their effects are …

Introduction EDTA plays a crucial role in regenerative endodontic therapy (RET) because of
its significant biological effects. However, EDTA is also recognized as the preferred …
