INTRODUCTION: This study tested the null hypothesis that there is no difference between
the use of 1.3% NaOCl/17% ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) and 5.25 …

OBJECTIVE: This study evaluated the effects of different NaOCl concentrations and contact
times on removal of the organic phase from mineralized dentin with and without the …

To get the root canal system free of organic debris and the smear layer, it has been
recommended to irrigate with a NaOCl solution during instrumentation, followed by a rinse …

Sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) remains the most used irrigation solution during root canal
preparation because of characteristics such as wide-spectrum antimicrobial activity and …

The medical literature is replete with the maxim 'primum non nocere', cautioning health care
providers to avoid doing any harm to human subjects in their delivery of medical care …

This study was designed to evaluate the effect on root dentin microhardness of 2.5% and 6%
sodium hypochlorite solutions for various irrigation periods. Forty-two bovine roots were …

Objectives The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of different irrigation protocols on
the root dentin structure using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission …

OBJECTIVE: The purpose of the study was to examine the level of erosion on root canal wall
dentin caused by immersion in different irrigant solutions in alternative sequences …

OBJECTIVES: The objectives of this study were to evaluate and compare the time-
dependent chemical and ultramorphologic effects of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) …

Effects of combined and single use of EDTA, RC-Prep, and NaOCl on mineral content of root
dentin were evaluated in vitro using energy dispersion spectrometric microanalysis. Thirty …
