Introduction Piezosurgery (piezoelectric bone surgery) devices were developed to cut bone
atraumatically using ultrasonic vibrations and to provide an alternative to the mechanical …

Objective This review aimed to systematically review the effectiveness of various irrigant
activation techniques (IATs) on the penetration of sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) into the …

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of different sonic and ultrasonic devices in the elimination
of debris from canal irregularities in artificial root canals. Materials and Methods A resin …

Objectives: Maintaining oral health around titanium implants is essential. The formation of a
biofilm on the titanium surface will influence the continuing success of the implant. These …

Objectives To evaluate the efficacy of a stepwise intraoperative activation (SIA) of irrigants
during and after the instrumentation compared with that of a conventional activation (CA) …

Aim (i) To quantify in a simulated root canal model the file‐to‐wall contact during ultrasonic
activation of an irrigant and to evaluate the effect of root canal size, file insertion depth …

Aim To evaluate the antibacterial effect of sonic‐and ultrasonic‐activated irrigation on
bacterial reduction of a dual‐species biofilm in root canals compared to nonactivated …

Accumulated hard tissue debris (AHTD) in root canal irregularities may negatively impact
adequate root canal disinfection. In light of this, the efficacy of passive ultrasonic irrigation …

Introduction The aim of this study was to evaluate uncontrolled removal of dentin during in
vitro ultrasonic irrigant activation in prepared root canals using 2 different files. Methods Fifty …

Aim of the study was to develop a standardized model system to investigate endodontic
irrigation techniques and assess the efficiency of different activation methods on the removal …
