efficacy of different root canal irrigants on smear layer removal after post space preparation: a scanning electron microscopy evaluation

Efficacy of Different Root Canal Irrigants on Smear Layer Removal after Post Space Preparation: A Scanning Electron Microscopy Evaluation

INTRODUCTION Effective durable adhesion between post material and dentine using resin cements is essential for longevity of restoration. The aim of this in vitro study was to compare the effect of different irrigants on smear layer removal after post space preparation. METHODS AND MATERIALS A total of 75 extracted anterior human teeth were selected. The canals were instrumented by rotary syst...

the effect of preparation size on efficacy of smear layer removal; a scanning electron microscopic study

introduction: enlargement of the root canal may potentially affect efficient smear layer (sl) removal. the aim of the present in vitro study was to compare sl removal following canal preparation with two different sizes/tapers by means of scanning electron microscopy (sem). methods and materials: a total of 50 extracted human mandibular premolars were decoronated. the teeth were randomly divide...

effect of 808nm diode laser irradiation on root canal walls after smear layer removal: a scanning electron microscope study

introduction : this study was carried out to investigate the effect of 808nm diode laser irradiation on dentinal tubules of root canal wall. materials and methods: twelve single-rooted teeth were used. after cleaning and shaping with rotary instruments by the crown down technique, the smear layer was removed by alternating irrigation with edta and sodium hypochlorite. the teeth were then random...

Evaluation of Smear Layer Removal by A New EDTA Formula on Root Canal Dentin : A Scanning Electron Microscopic Study

Effects of ultrasonically activated irrigants with or without surfactant on smear layer removal after post space preparation

The aim of this study was to compare the effects of different NaOCl and EDTA formulations with/without ultrasonic use on smear layer removal and root canal surface characteristics after post space preparation. Study design: After post space preparations, forty-six teeth were subjected to different post space irrigation regimes; G1, 17% EDTA; G2, 17% EDTA+Ultrasonic activation; G3, EDTA-T; G4, E...
