Investigating the Effects of Herbal Nanoparticle Endodontic Irrigants on Candida albicans and Enterococcus faecalis: An In Vitro Study
Abstract:The concentrations of sodium hypochlorite play a major role in removing E. faecalis in both biofilm and planktonic form. Higher concentrations result in better outcomes. 8 Unfortunately, NaOCl irrigant has some drawbacks, such as hypersensitivity reactions, tissue sepsis, damage to the instruments, irritation to periodontium tissue, failure to remove the smear layer, and an unfavorable taste and smell. 9 NaOCl has a substantial impact on the mechanical characteristics of dentin, including flexural strength, mi… Show more
