Biofilm formation within the interface of bovine root dentin treated with conjugated chitosan and sealer containing chitosan nanoparticles.
TLDR
Investigating biofilm formation within sealer-dentin interfaces of root segments filled with gutta-percha and sealer incorporated with chitosan nanoparticles with and without canal surface treatment with different formulations of CS found it to be inhibited by zinc oxide-eugenol sealer.About:

Evaluation of the antibacterial efficacy of silver nanoparticles against Enterococcus faecalis biofilm.
TL;DR: AgNPs as a medicament and not as an irrigant showed potential to eliminate residual bacterial biofilms during root canal disinfection, suggesting that the antibiofilm efficacy of AgNPs depends on the mode of application.

Antibacterial Properties Associated with Chitosan Nanoparticle Treatment on Root Dentin and 2 Types of Endodontic Sealers
TL;DR: This study highlighted the ability of CMCS to disinfect root canal dentin and inhibit bacterial adhesion and added that CNps in root canal sealers are capable of maintaining their antibacterial activity even after prolonged aging.

Bovine Teeth as Possible Substitutes in the Adhesion Test
TL;DR: In order to find a substitute for human teeth in the adhesion test, the adhesive strength to bovine teeth was compared with that to human teeth using five dental cements and two composite resins.

Influence of coronal restorations on the periapical health of endodontically treated teeth.
TL;DR: The technical quality of the endodontic treatment as judged radiographically was significantly more important than the technicalquality of the coronal restoration when the periapical status of endodentically treated teeth was evaluated.
