Journal ArticleDOI

Scanning electron microscopic investigation of the effectiveness of phosphoric acid in smear layer removal when compared with EDTA and citric acid.

TL;DR: Findings point toward the possibility that phosphoric acid solution could be a promising agent for smear layer removal, especially in the middle and cervical thirds.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of Different Irrigation Protocols on Resin Sealer Bond Strength to Dentin

TL;DR: Irrigation protocols influenced the bond strength of resin sealer bond strength to dentin and the associated failure pattern was mainly adhesive.
Journal ArticleDOI

Interactions between irrigants commonly used in endodontic practice: a chemical analysis.

TL;DR: The orange-brown precipitate observed in the association between CHX and NaOCl occurs because of the presence of NaO Cl, an oxidizing agent causing chlorination of the guanidino nitrogens of the CHX.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evaluation of the Interaction between Endodontic Sealers and Dentin Treated with Different Irrigant Solutions

TL;DR: Investigation of endodontic sealers in contact with dentin treated with 5.25% sodium hypochlorite and 2% chlorhexidine in the presence or absence of smear layer revealed that smear layer removal and final flush with CHX favor the wettability of AH Plus and Real Seal SE sealers.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparison between the effect of plasma and chemical treatments on fiber post surface.

TL;DR: Plasma treatment favored the wettability of the post surface by modifying it chemically, and adhesion improvement was only observed after EDA treatment.
