Crack initiation on the apical root surface caused by three different nickel-titanium rotary files at different working lengths.

TL;DR: Comparisons of three brands of nickel-titanium (NiTi) rotary files with different designs on the initiation of apical root cracks when working short, at, and beyond the apical foramen found no significant difference between the file types used.

Chelating and antibacterial properties of chitosan nanoparticles on dentin

TL;DR: CNPs could be used as a final irrigant during root canal treatment with the dual benefit of removing the smear layer and inhibiting bacterial recolonization on root dentin.

Critical appraisal of studies on dentinal radicular microcracks in endodontics: methodological issues, contemporary concepts, and future perspectives

TL;DR: This article seeks to critically appraise the methodological aspects involved in the study of dentinal radicular microcrack formation after root canal preparation, obturation, and retreatment.

Effect of the root canal final rinse protocols on the debris and smear layer removal and on the push-out strength of an epoxy-based sealer

TL;DR: The ability to remove the debris and smear layer by SmearClear and QMiX was as effective as the 17% EDTA and the push‐out bond strength values of G2, G3, and G4 were superior to the control group.

Effects of Concentrations and Exposure Times of Sodium Hypochlorite on Dentin Deproteination: Attenuated Total Reflection Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy Study

TL;DR: It is suggested that a prolonged exposure to low concentrations of NaOCl is less damaging to dentin in attempting to achieve antisepsis during instrumentation of root canal therapy.

Root canal irrigants.

TL;DR: Based on the actions and interactions of currently available solutions, a clinical irrigating regimen is proposed and some technical aspects of irrigating the root canal system are discussed, and recent trends are critically inspected.
Journal ArticleDOI

A preliminary scanning electron microscopic study of root canals after endodontic procedures.

TL;DR: Most standard instrumentation techniques produced a canal wall that was smeared and often packed with debris, and some of the irrigants commonly used in endodontic practice were no more effective than water in removing debris.

Effect of sodium hypochlorite on mechanical properties of dentine and tooth surface strain

TL;DR: The null hypothesis that sodium hypochlorite irrigation of root canals does not alter the properties of dentine and contribute to the weakening of root-treated teeth was rejected, 5.25% NaOCl reduced the elastic modulus and flexural strength of dentines.

Effect of exposing dentine to sodium hypochlorite and calcium hydroxide on its flexural strength and elastic modulus

TL;DR: NaOCl (3 & 5%) reduced the modulus of elasticity and flexural strength of dentine and Sequential use of NaOCl and Ca(OH)2 has no additional weakening effect.

Dentin: a dynamic substrate--a review.

TL;DR: The structure of dentin is unusual in that the number and size of its tubules changes as one moves from the periphery toward the pulp chamber, and fluid shifts across the open tubules can cause sensitivity in vivo.
