IntroductionThe in vitro efficacy of irrigant activation devices has not been contrasted to their safety. This was attempted in this study using apically closed versus patent simulated root canal systems in epoxy resin models, with the latter featuring a simulated periapical lesion.MethodsAll 72 models had 2 joining canals connected by an isthmus, which was filled with dentin debris. The simulated periapical lesion was filled with colored gelatin in the 36 respective models. Canals were irrigated with 1.3% sodium hypochlorite. Samples were divided into 4 subgroups per system (n = 9): conventional irrigation, sonic low (EndoActivator; Dentsply Sirona, Charlotte, NC) and high frequency (EDDY; VDW, Munich, Germany), and ultrasonic agitation of the irrigant (always applying 3 cycles of 20 seconds). The total cleared surface areas (mm2) in the simulated isthmus and periapical lesion were compared between systems and devices using parametric tests (P < .05).ResultsThe cleaning of the isthmus was more effective in the apically open compared with the closed systems and was also significantly influenced by the agitation method (P < .001). In the closed systems, EDDY and ultrasonic agitation achieved the significantly (P < .05) best cleaning of the isthmus. In the open systems, ultrasonic agitation showed the single best result (P < .05). EDDY caused by far the highest and ultrasonic agitation the lowest dissolution of the gelatin in the simulated periapical lesion.ConclusionsUnder the conditions of this study, ultrasonic agitation of a previously administered sodium hypochlorite irrigant was more laterally targeted and thus safer and more effective than sonic agitation methods. 相似文献

IntroductionThe purpose of this study was to evaluate the penetration of 5.25% sodium hypochlorite alone or in combination with 17% EDTA in simulated lateral canals using sonic and ultrasonic activation.MethodsFour hundred and eighty simulated lateral canals were created in 80 single rooted cleared teeth by inserting 06 K-files at 2, 4.5 and 6 mm of working length. Samples were mounted on clear silicon to simulate the presence of surrounding periodontal tissues and its effects on fluid dynamics and then randomly assigned to four experimental groups: 1 (n = 20) 5.25% NaOCl + sonic activation; 2 (n = 20) 5.25% NaOCl + ultrasonic activation; 3 (n = 20) 5.25% NaOCl + 17% EDTA + sonic activation and 4 (n = 20) 5.25% NaOCl + 17% EDTA + ultrasonic activation. Sonic activation was delivered using the Endoactivator® inserted 2 mm short of working length and activated for 1 minute. Ultrasonic activation was performed with a stainless steel ultrasonic file inserted 2 mm short of working length and passively activated for 3 cycles of 20 seconds each. Samples were evaluated by direct observation of the images recorded under the operating microscope and by radiographic evaluation after irrigation with a contrast solution.ResultsSonic and ultrasonic activation resulted in a better irrigation of the lateral canals at 4.5 and 2 mm from working length compared to traditional needle irrigation alone. Traditional needle irrigation alone demonstrated significantly less penetration of irrigant into the lateral canals and was limited to the level of penetration of the needle.ConclusionThe addition of EDTA did not result in better penetration of irrigants into the lateral canals. 相似文献

ObjectiveThis review aimed to systematically review the effectiveness of various irrigant activation techniques (IATs) on the penetration of sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) into the lateral canals of mature permanent teeth.MethodsElectronic databases including MEDLINE (via PubMed), Scopus, ProQuest, and Cochrane Library were searched to identify laboratory studies evaluating the penetration of NaOCl into lateral canals following the use of apical negative pressure irrigation (ANP), passive ultrasonic irrigation (PUI), sonic irrigation (SI), and/or manual dynamic activation (MDA) techniques. Meta-analysis was performed for individual IATs in comparison with CNI into the lateral canals of both straight and curved root canals. On the basis of the previous literature and parameters, the risk of bias of the selected studies was evaluated with the help of a customized tool.ResultsOf the 983 records screened, 12 studies were selected to include in the systematic review, and 10 studies were selected for the meta-analysis. The total quality assessment across the included studies indicated a high quality (83.3%). Overall, the meta-analysis demonstrated IATs had significant improvement in the penetration of NaOCl into the lateral canals of straight canals (34.3%) over CNI. The subgroup analysis of individual IATs demonstrated PUI (60.9%) to be superior in the penetration into lateral canals of straight canals.ConclusionsIATs improved the irrigant penetration into lateral canals and therefore their use during routine endodontic practice is recommended. In straight canals, PUI is the most effective IAT followed by ANP, SI, and MDA techniques. 相似文献

IntroductionThis in vitro study sought to compare the efficacy of a sonic irrigant activation device with ultrasonic activation and needle irrigation in removing hard tissue debris (HTD) from anatomic complexities of the root canal system.MethodsTwenty-seven mesial roots of extracted human mandibular molars with 2 canals connected by an isthmus were selected based on micro–computed tomography scans (12-μm voxel size). The mesial canals were mechanically prepared to ProTaper Next X3 (Dentsply Maillefer, Ballaigues, Switzerland) and anatomically distributed into 3 groups (n = 9) according to the final irrigation protocol: sonically activated irrigation (SAI) using the EDDY system (VDW GbmH, Munich, Germany) for 3 × 20 seconds, ultrasonically activated irrigation (UAI) using a size 20 Irrisafe tip (Satelec Acteon, Mérignac, France) for 3 × 20 seconds, and conventional irrigation using a 30-G needle adapted to a syringe. Micro–computed tomographic scans were taken after instrumentation and after supplementary activation of the irrigant. After reconstruction and coregistration, the volume filled with HTD before and after irrigant activation was calculated, and the mean percentage of HTD reduction after final irrigation was compared within and among groups using the paired sample t test and 1-way analysis of variance post hoc Tukey test, respectively (α = 5%).ResultsA significant reduction in the volume filled with HTD after irrigant activation was observed in all groups (P < .05). The percentage reduction of HTD in the UAI group (66.8%) was significantly higher than that in the SAI group (36.4%) (P < .05), whereas the conventional irrigation group result (43.7%) did not differ statistically from the UAI or SAI groups (P > .05).ConclusionsAll tested supplementary irrigation steps significantly reduced the amount of debris created during root canal preparation. Ultrasonic activation resulted in the highest mean debris reduction. 相似文献

IntroductionThe purpose of this study was to evaluate the impact of different sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) irrigation protocols on organic tissue dissolution in the periapical region of simulated immature permanent teeth.MethodsEight single-rooted premolars and 48 samples of porcine palatal mucosa were used. Acrylic resin prototypes were constructed, placing the tissue in close contact with the dental apices. Specimens were then divided into 6 groups (n = 8): 2 control groups of normal saline irrigation with (NS/WA) or without (NS/NA) ultrasonic activation and 4 experimental groups of 1.5% and 2.5% NaOCl irrigation with (NaOCl 1.5%/WA and NaOCl 2.5%/WA) or without (NaOCl 1.5%/NA and NaOCl 2.5%/NA) activation. Root canals were irrigated with 20 mL of the solution for 5 minutes distributed over 4 irrigation cycles. In each cycle, after irrigation, the solution was either kept stagnant or activated for 30 seconds and then replaced. Specimens were weighed on a precision balance before and after the irrigation protocols. Tissue dissolution was measured by the difference between the initial and final weights. One-way analysis of variance was applied followed by the Tukey honestly significant difference test (α = 0.05).ResultsThe NS/NA and NS/WA groups had mean weight reductions similar to the 1.5% NaOCl/NA group (P > .05) and lower than the others (P < .05). The 2.5% NaOCl/NA and 2.5% NaOCl/WA groups had the highest mean weight loss (P < .05), whereas the 1.5% NaOCl/WA group had intermediate values (P < .05).ConclusionsPeriapical tissue dissolution occurred in all groups, with a greater impact observed with 2.5% NaOCl with or without ultrasonic activation. 相似文献

IntroductionClinical/microbiological studies have consistently revealed the persistence of some bacteria after conventional root canal debridement. Although this was originally attributed to the complexity of the root canal anatomy and the difficulty of delivering antibacterial agents effectively, it has emerged that the biofilm encasement of bacterial cells may confer a further mechanism of resistance. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relative disruption and bactericidal effects of root canal irrigants on single- and dual-species biofilms of root canal isolates.MethodsBiofilms of Streptococcus sanguinis, Enterococcus faecalis, Fusobacterium nucleatum, and Porphyromonas gingivalis were grown on nitrocellulose membranes for 72 hours and immersed in NaOCl, EDTA, chlorhexidine, and iodine for 1, 5, or 10 minutes. The number of viable and nonviable bacteria disrupted from the biofilm and those remaining adherent were determined by using a viability stain in conjunction with fluorescence microscopy.ResultsGram-negative obligate anaerobe species were more susceptible to cell removal than gram-positive facultative anaerobes. The majority of cells were disrupted after the first minute of exposure; however, the extent varied according to the agent and species. The most effective agent at disrupting biofilms was NaOCl. Iodine was generally effective at bacterial killing but not disruption.ConclusionsBiofilm disruption and cell viability were influenced by the species, their coassociation in dual-species biofilms, the test agent, and the duration of exposure. The effectiveness of NaOCl as an endodontic irrigant was reinforced. 相似文献

IntroductionThe efficacy of sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) as an intracanal irrigant is widely debated in endodontic therapy. This study aimed to analyze and compare the penetration abilities of different modes of NaOCl application and assess the impact of various agitation strategies on promoting root canal cleanliness.Materials and methodsThis study included 168 single-rooted mandibular premolars that were randomly divided into 8 groups. The 2 modes of application of 5% NaOCl evaluated were intracanal heating and preheating, and the agitation strategies included ultrasonic, sonic, and manual dynamic agitations. The samples were sectioned and observed at a magnification of 1000 × under a scanning electron microscope.ResultsThe analysis of variance test showed a statistically significant difference among the various groups of agitation (P < .05). The post hoc Tukey test confirmed that preheated NaOCl with ultrasonic agitation, intracanal-heated NaOCl with sonic agitation, and manual dynamic agitation had significantly higher debris scores of 1, 4, and 5, respectively, in the apical third of the canal.ConclusionThe results indicated that the combination of intracanal-heated NaOCl and ultrasonic agitation is an effective method for reducing debris in the root canal system. These findings highlight the importance of considering both the mode of application and the agitation strategies when optimizing the use of NaOCl as an intracanal irrigant in endodontic therapy. 相似文献

IntroductionIt was the goal of this study to compare different NaOCl activation schemes regarding a desired and an untoward outcome. Ultrasonic tips and a currently marketed sonic system were used in conjunction with a 2.5% sodium hypochlorite solution. Necrotic pulp tissue dissolution in simulated accessory canals and transportation of the main canal were assessed.MethodsEpoxy resin models (10 per group) with a curved simulated main root canal and two simulated accessory canals filled with necrotic bovine pulp tissue were irrigated passively with one of three ultrasonic setups (straight stainless steel files, prebent stainless steel files, or nickel-titanium tips) or a sonic device in conjunction with a plastic tip. Activation was performed four times for 30 seconds with replenishment of the NaOCl solution in between. All the files/tips had a 2% taper and a 0.15-mm tip diameter according to the manufacturer. Data from superimposing and analyzing digital photos before and after treatment were statistically analyzed using one-way analysis of variance followed by Bonferroni's correction for multiple comparisons (alpha < 0.05).ResultsPassive ultrasonic irrigation (PUI) in all the groups dissolved significantly more tissue than sonic activation (p < 0.05). No detectable canal transportation with sonic activation was observed. The difference in this outcome was not significant compared with ultrasonically activated nickel-titanium tips, whereas the straight stainless steel files caused significantly more ledging compared with these setups (p < 0.05).ConclusionUnder the current conditions, PUI with a nickel-titanium tip promoted superior tissue-dissolving effects over sonic irrigant activation while maintaining simulated canal anatomy. 相似文献

ObjectiveThe deleterious caustic effects of sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) as a root canal irrigant makes it imperative that alternative methods are developed for root canal disinfection. The purpose of this study was to examine the antimicrobial efficacy of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) synthesized on an aqueous graphene oxide (GO) matrix (Ag-GO), with different irrigant delivery methods to enhance the disinfection regimen, using a novel ex vivo infected tooth model.MethodsAgNPs were prepared by reducing AgNO3 with 0.01 M NaBH4 in presence of GO. Elemental analysis was performed with scanning electron microscopy/energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM/EDS) and scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) was used for size and morphology analysis of GO and Ag-GO. Nutrient stressed, multi-species biofilms were grown in prepared root canals of single-rooted teeth. The irrigants used were sterile saline, 1% and 2.5% NaOCl, 2% chlorhexidine gluconate (CHX), 17% EDTA and an aqueous suspension of 0.25% Ag-GO. The antimicrobial efficacy of the irrigants were performed with paper point sampling and measurement of microbial counts. The biofilm disruption in dentine tubule surfaces was analysed with confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM). The acquisition of total biovolume (μm3/μm2) and biofilm viability was performed using software BioImage_L. Two-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) with post hoc Tukey tests was used for data analysis with level of statistical significance set at P < 0.05.ResultsSEM/EDS analysis confirmed impregnation of Ag within the GO matrix. TEM images showed polygonal GO sheets and spherical AgNPs of diameter 20–50 nm, forming a network on the surface of GO sheets. The use of ultrasonic activation enhanced the efficacy of Ag-GO compared to 1% NaOCl, 2% CHX, 17% EDTA and sterile saline (P < 0.05). The microbial killing efficacy of 2.5% NaOCl was superior compared to the experimental groups. The maximum biofilm disruption, in dentine tubule surfaces, was achieved by 2.5% NaOCl, however Ag-GO caused a significant reduction of total biovolumes compared to the rest of the experimental groups (P < 0.05%).SignificanceThe successful documentation of the microbial killing and biofilm disruption capacity of Ag-GO is a promising step forward to explore its unique properties in clinical applications and biomaterials in dentistry. 相似文献

Introduction
The aim of this in vitro study was to compare the effectiveness of saline, 2.5% sodium hypochlorite, and 2% chlorhexidine, with or without passive ultrasonic irrigation (PUI), in debris removal from simulated canal irregularities within prepared root canals.Methods
Ninety bovine lateral incisors were randomly divided into 3 main groups (n = 30) based on the irrigant and prepared with hand files attached to an oscillating handpiece (NSK, Tokyo, Japan) up to a size #80 K-file. Next, the teeth were split longitudinally, and a standardized groove was prepared into the apical third and filled with dentin debris. After the halves were reassembled, they were placed in a muffle. Each main group was randomly subdivided into 2 groups (n = 14) and was treated with different final irrigation protocols. In the sodium hypochlorite/PUI, chlorhexidine/PUI, and saline/PUI groups, the solution was ultrasonically activated 3 times for 20 seconds. In the remaining groups, PUI was not performed. Specimens were scored for debris removal and analyzed under a scanning electron microscope.Results
An association was observed between the score of debris removal and protocols using PUI (P < .05). No association was observed between the scores of debris removal and the irrigants (P = .87).Conclusions
Final irrigation protocols that used PUI were more effective in removing debris from simulated canal irregularities into the apical third than those that did not use it. 相似文献11.

This study evaluates the effectiveness of different activated irrigation techniques on removal of debris and smear layer from curved root canals. Ninety mandibular molars with a root canal curvature between 20 and 40 degrees were assigned to 4 groups (n = 20): syringe irrigation (SI), passive ultrasonic activation (PUI), sonic activation with EDDY (ED) or EndoActivator (EA) and a control group. Mesiobuccal root canals were prepared to size 40, 0.04 and irrigated with NaOCl (3%) according to the respective technique. Roots were split longitudinally and subjected to scanning electron microscopic analysis. Presence of debris and smear layer was evaluated using 5‐grade scoring systems with 200× and 1000× magnification, respectively. Data were analysed with nonparametric analysis for ordinal longitudinal data (α = 5%). Activation of the irrigant significantly improved smear layer removal (P < 0.05). Regarding debris, only activation with EA and ED was significantly more effective than SI (P < 0.05). No activation technique was able to eliminate debris and smear layer completely from curved root canals. 相似文献

IntroductionThis study compared the clinical and radiographic outcome of endodontic retreatment of teeth with apical periodontitis using either 1% sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) or 2% chlorhexidine digluconate (CHX) as the irrigant. The influence of residual infection detected by a molecular method on the outcome was also examined.MethodsFifty-two root-filled teeth with apical periodontitis were randomly assigned into 2 groups according to the irrigant used during retreatment. Root canal microbiological samples taken before (S1) and after (S2) preparation using either NaOCl or CHX irrigation and after calcium hydroxide medication (S3) were subjected to 16S ribosomal RNA gene-based real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) to quantify total bacteria. The periapical status was scored using the periapical index and dichotomized as healed (<3) or not healed (≥3) at the 1- and 4-year follow-up.ResultsForty-five (NaOCl, n = 20; CHX, n = 25) and 33 teeth (NaOCl, n = 16; CHX, n = 17) were available at the 1- and 4-year follow-up, respectively. After 1 year, 65% in the NaOCl group and 64% in the CHX group healed, with no differences between them (P > .05). At the later follow-up, the corresponding figures were 81% and 82%, respectively (P > .05). Canals that yielded qPCR-negative results in S3 had a higher healing rate (79%) than qPCR-positive canals (45%, P < .05). The mean bacterial load increased from S2 to S3 in half of the unhealed cases (P < .05). All S3-positive canals containing <3.12 × 103 bacterial cell counts healed. Increasing the apical level of the root canal filling influenced the outcome (P < .05).ConclusionsNo significant differences in the clinical outcome between 1% NaOCl and 2% CHX were found. Bacterial persistence at the time of filling as detected by qPCR significantly affected the outcome. 相似文献

Aim To investigate the disruption and bactericidal effect of root canal irrigants on single and dual-species biofilms.
Methodology Single-species ( Streptococcus sanguis , Enterococcus faecalis, Fusobacterium nucleatum, Porphymonas gingivalis) and dual-species ( S. sanguis and F. nucleatum ) biofilms were grown on nitro-cellulose membranes and immersed in either a commonly used root canal irrigant; (NaOCl, EDTA, Corsodyl® , iodine) or potential root canal irrigant [sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS), cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) and Tween® 80] for 1, 5 or 10 min. The number of viable and nonviable bacteria disrupted from the biofilm and those remaining attached to the biofilm were determined using a viability stain in conjunction with fluorescent microscopy. In addition, confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) was used to allow a visual assessment of the disruptive effects of selected agents on the stained biofilms.
Results Gram-negative species were more susceptible to cell removal than their Gram-positive counterparts, S. sanguis being the least susceptible. The majority of the cell disruption occurred after the first minute of exposure as all of the agents exerted some effect on bacterial disruption and viability; however, the extent varied according to the agent. The most effective root canal irrigant for disrupting biofilms was NaOCl whilst in contrast iodine was generally effective at bacterial killing but not disruption. Of the potential root canal irrigants, CTAB and SDS were both effective in disrupting the biofilm and at bacterial cell-killing.
Conclusions Biofilm disruption and cell viability were influenced by the species, their co-association in dual-species biofilms and the test agent. The effectiveness of NaOCl as an endodontic irrigant was reinforced. 相似文献

IntroductionThe aim was to compare the compressive strength of dentin after irrigation with different concentrations of sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl).MethodsA total of 259 extracted human tooth roots with no root caries or previous endodontic treatment were collected. They were sorted by size and length, and assigned to 7 groups (n = 37): negative control (no instrumentation, no irrigant), positive control (saline irrigant), 1%, 2.5%, 4%, 5.25%, and 10% NaOCl. A total of 13 mL NaOCl or saline (in 1-mL increments) was used per canal while being instrumented to #35 files (approximately 13 minutes). EDTAC (15%) was then used to remove the smear layer (2 minutes), followed by NaOCl as a final rinse. The roots were sectioned into 2-mm-thick disks and subjected to compression testing.ResultsThere was a significant difference between the negative control group and all instrumented groups (P < .05). The positive control group was significantly different from the 5.25% group (P < .05) and had a low P value when compared with the 2.5% group and the other higher concentrations (P ? .1). When the NaOCl groups were compared with each other, there was a significant difference between 1% NaOCl and all higher concentrations (P < .05), but no significant difference when 2.5% NaOCl was compared with higher concentrations.ConclusionA concentration of 1% NaOCl had the least effect on the compressive strength of dentin and this was significantly different from all higher concentrations tested. Therefore, the use of concentrations of NaOCl above 1% should be reconsidered. 相似文献

Introduction
The purpose of this study was to compare in vitro the effectiveness of calcium hypochlorite (Ca[OCl]2) and sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) associated with passive ultrasonic irrigation in root canals of bovine teeth infected with Enterococcus faecalis.Methods
The root canals of 60 single-rooted bovine extracted teeth were enlarged up to a file 45, autoclaved, inoculated with Enterococcus faecalis, and incubated for 30 days. The samples were divided into 6 groups (n = 10) according to the protocol for decontamination: G1: no treatment; G2: distilled water; G3: 2.5% NaOCl; G4: 2.5% Ca(OCl)2; G5: 2.5% NaOCl with ultrasonic activation; and G6: 2.5% Ca(OCl)2 with ultrasonic activation (US). Microbiological testing (colony-forming unit [CFU] counting) was performed to evaluate and show, respectively, the effectiveness of the proposed treatments. Data were subjected to 1-way analysis of variance followed by the post hoc Tukey test (α = 0.05).Results
Groups 1 and 2 showed the highest mean contamination (3.26 log10 CFU/mL and 2.69 log10 CFU/mL, respectively), which was statistically different from all other groups (P < .05). Group 6 (Ca[OCl]2 + US) showed the lowest mean contamination (1.00 log10 CFU/mL), with no statistically significant difference found in groups 3 (NaOCl), 4 (Ca[OCl]2), and 5 (NaOCl + US) (P < .05).Conclusions
Ca(OCl)2 as well as passive ultrasonic irrigation can aid in chemomechanical preparation, contributing in a significant way to the reduction of microbial content during root canal treatment. 相似文献16.

IntroductionThis in vivo study used molecular microbiology methods to evaluate the effects of passive ultrasonic irrigation (PUI) as a supplementary disinfecting step after root canal preparation.MethodsSamples were taken from 10 necrotic root canals of teeth with apical periodontitis before (S1) and after rotary nickel-titanium instrumentation using 2.5% NaOCl as the irrigant (S2) and then after PUI for NaOCl activation (S3). The parameters examined included the incidence of positive broad-range polymerase chain reaction (PCR) results for bacterial presence, the impact on bacterial diversity evaluated by PCR-denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE), the quantitative bacterial reduction determined by real-time PCR, and the identification of persistent species by clone library analysis.ResultsAll S1 samples were positive for bacteria in all tests. Treatment procedures were significantly effective in reducing the incidence of positive results for bacteria, the number of bacterial cells (infectious bioburden), and the bacterial diversity (number of species and abundance). However, the supplementary PUI approach did not succeed in significantly enhancing disinfection beyond that achieved by chemomechanical preparation. Several bacterial species/phylotypes were identified in post-treatment samples that were positive for bacteria.ConclusionsFindings from this clinical study including a small sample size suggest that PUI can be ineffective in significantly improving disinfection of the main root canal after chemomechanical procedures. 相似文献

IntroductionThe aim of this in vitro study was to assess and compare the effect of photoactivated disinfection (PAD) on the bond strength of root canal sealers to human root canal dentin using the push-out test.MethodsFifteen extracted human mandibular premolar teeth with single and straight roots were used. After the clinical crowns were removed from the cementoenamel junction, root canals were prepared with the ProTaper (Dentsply Maillefer, Ballaigues, Switzerland) rotary system to the size of the F3 file. The smear layer of the roots was removed using 17% EDTA followed by 5.25% sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) and distillate water. The roots were then randomly divided into 3 groups (n = 5) according to the final irrigation regimen. In group 1, PAD (FotoSan; CMS Dental, Copenhagen, Denmark) was applied to the root canals and light cured for 20 seconds. Group 2 was finally irrigated with a 2% solution of chlorhexidine gluconate, and group 3 served as the control group (NaOCl + EDTA). All the canals were then obturated with the lateral condensation technique using gutta-percha and AH Plus sealer (Dentsply Maillefer) sealer. One-millimeter-thick horizontal sections from the coronal and midthirds of each root (n: 5 × 4 = 20) were sliced for the push-out bond strength measurement. The data were converted to megapascals and statistically analyzed using 1-way analysis of variance and the post hoc Tukey test.ResultsThere was no significant difference among the bond strength of PAD, chlorhexidine gluconate, and NaOCl (P > .05).ConclusionsWe conclude that PAD does not adversely affect the bond strength of the AH Plus sealer to root canal dentin and that it can be used for the final disinfection of root canals. 相似文献

Introduction
To ensure root canal treatment success, endodontic microbiota should be efficiently reduced. The in vitro bactericidal effects of a hydrodynamic system and a passive ultrasonic irrigation system were compared.Methods
Single-rooted extracted teeth (n = 250) were contaminated with suspensions of Enterococcus faecalis ATCC 29212, mixed aerobic cultures, or mixed anaerobic cultures. First, the antibacterial effects of the hydrodynamic system (RinsEndo), a passive ultrasonic irrigation system (Piezo smart), and manual rinsing with 0.9% NaCl (the control) were compared. Colony-forming units were counted. Second, the 2 systems were used with 1.5% sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) alone or NaOCl + 0.2% chlorhexidine (CHX). The colony-forming units in the treated and untreated roots were determined during a period of 5 days.Results
Both irrigation systems reduced bacterial numbers more effectively than manual rinsing (P < .001). With NaCl, ultrasonic activated irrigation reduced bacterial counts significantly better than hydrodynamic irrigation (P = .042). The NaOCl + CHX combination was more effective than NaOCl alone for both systems (P < .001), but hydrodynamic irrigation was more effective with NaOCl + CHX than the passive ultrasonic irrigation system.Conclusions
Both irrigation systems, when combined with NaOCl + CHX, removed bacteria from root canals. 相似文献19.

IntroductionChemically released growth factors play a vital role in regenerative endodontics. Transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF-β1) is 1 of the most extensively studied bioactive molecules that promotes cell proliferation, differentiation, and chemotaxis. The goal of the current research was to analyze the effect of 7% maleic acid (MA) root conditioning of an infected root canal on the release of TGF-β1.MethodsSingle-rooted human teeth were decoronated, and the canals were enlarged with a Peeso reamer. The samples were divided into biofilm and nonbiofilm groups. Subsequently, all the samples of both groups were flushed with 10 mL of each irrigant, namely, 1.5% sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl), 7% MA, 17% EDTA, and a combination of 1.5% NaOCl with 17% EDTA or 7% MA, for 10 minutes each. TGF-β1 was estimated quantitatively using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kit.ResultsTGF-β1 release was lowest among the biofilm samples compared with nonbiofilm among all the groups. MA 7% with 1.5% NaOCl rendered higher amounts of growth factor release in contrast to the combination of 17% EDTA and 1.5% NaOCl in both the biofilm and nonbiofilm groups (P < .048). The nonbiofilm samples treated with 7% MA alone illustrated higher growth factor release compared with 17% EDTA only (P < .006), but there was no significant difference in growth factor release among the biofilm samples treated with 7% MA and 17% EDTA.ConclusionsBacterial biofilms modified the release of TGF-β1. MA 7% was observed to be significantly more efficacious than 17% EDTA in TGF-β1 growth factor release from radicular dentin. 相似文献

IntroductionThe aim of this in vitro study was to evaluate the effects on root dentin of 2 trephining techniques using an ultrasonic tip or a trepan bur in the mesial canals of mandibular molars during attempts to remove fractured file fragments using micro–computed tomographic imaging.MethodsTwenty-one teeth with a similar anatomic configuration in mesial (buccal and lingual) canals were selected. A 4-mm apical segment of K3 file size 25/.06 was fractured in each mesiobuccal and mesiolingual canal 5 mm apically from the canal orifice. A staging platform was prepared at the coronal aspect of the broken instrument followed by either ultrasonics or a new trepan bur technique to expose a 1- to 1.5-mm length of the fragment. If the broken instrument could not be removed by exposing it either by ultrasound or the trepan bur, a microtube device was used to attach to and withdraw the fragment. Micro-CT scanning was performed before and after removing the broken instrument. Canal volume, diameter, and furcal root dentin thickness were measured by using image analysis software. The time required for the removal of the instrument fragments was recorded. The result was statistically analyzed using the paired t test.ResultsThe trepan bur technique had significantly less impact on canal volume, diameter, and furcal root dentin thickness change than the ultrasonic technique (P < .001). The time consumed for successful removal of the fragments was significantly less in the trepan bur group (8.9 ± 3.5 minutes) than in the ultrasonic group (25 ± 11.9 minutes) (P < .001).ConclusionsA new small-sized trepan bur technique was superior to the use of ultrasound with regard to the amount of dentin removed and the speed in the removal of fractured instruments from root canals. 相似文献
