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.
Maíra do Prado,Helvécio M. dos Santos Júnior,Claudia M. Rezende,Angelo C. Pinto,Roberto B. Faria,Renata Antoun Simão,Brenda Paula Figueiredo de Almeida Gomes +6 more
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.
Marta Cléa Costa Dantas,Maíra do Prado,Vinicius Silva Costa,Mauro G. Gaiotte,Renata Antoun Simão,Fernando Luis Bastian +5 more
TL;DR: Plasma treatment favored the wettability of the post surface by modifying it chemically, and adhesion improvement was only observed after EDA treatment.
