“…Studies have shown that MtAD is less cytotoxic compared to other endodontic medicaments such as eugenol, hydrogen peroxide (3%), EDtA. 3,19 However the use of MtAD in primary teeth is limited because of chance of discoloration in permanent buds present below. However, its use in young permanent teeth may not be controversial.…”

“…Ozone is capable of oxidizing any biological entity due to its powerful bactericidal properties where even at low concentration, (0.1 ppm), it is capable of inactivating bacterial cells including their spores. 3 Although it is a powerful antimicrobial agent, less attention has been paid to its antibacterial activity on bacterial biofilm and hence in root canal infection. 34,35 Studies have found that when the specimen was irrigated with sonication killing ability of ozonated water and 2.5% sodium hypochlorite was almost comparable, However, it was found that effect on E. faecalis was more with NaOCl than ozonated water in broth culture and in biofilm.…”

The endodontic triad consists of cleaning and shaping, disinfection and obturation. Success of root canal therapy in primary teeth is mainly achieved by thorough removal of debris and necrotic tissue. However, complete elimination of bacterial contaminants as well as necrotic debris require adjunctive use of root canal irrigants along with mechanical instrumentation. As we know from literature that none of the available irrigating solutions alone provides all the ideal requirements. Studies have shown that a combination of two or more irrigating solutions in a specific sequence will help to achieve optimal irrigation. This review article mainly highlights the mechanism of action, safety and biocompatibility of currently used irrigation solutions and also the other materials that can be used as a potent irrigants, their advantages and limitations in future of endodontics.

“…However, the ability to remove smear layer is not satisfactory. 13 The other disadvantages with this irrigant are its shelf life (short) and not being economical, discoloration of the teeth (due to the presence of tetracycline), and it is also not safe in pregnancy. 2,14 The problems with chemical agents and its safety concerns increased the attention toward medicinal plants from few decades.…”

With the advancement in the science of Endodontics like instruments, rotary machines, lasers and irrigation delivery system, the irrigation solution is also getting evolved, the researchers are looking for a substitute to synthetic drugs because of its side effects. Development is moving towards natural products which is safe and cost effective. This article reviews few herbal irrigants and its advantages for the root canal treatment

“…Rather than using an alternate irrigant [10] or a combination of irrigants [11] with less favorable properties, this study focused on reducing the negative effects of NaOCl while still benefiting from its inherent disinfecting properties. A modified version of the immediate dentin sealing (IDS) technique was applied within the context of endodontic treatment.…”

Immediate endodontic access cavity sealing: fundamentals of a new restorative technique

2014

Endodontic access cavity sealing is conventionally performed after endodontic irrigation, referred to as delayed endodontic sealing (DES). Evidence shows that endodontic irrigation with NaOCl decreases dentinal bond quality and could cause coronal leakage. Access cavity sealing before endodontic irrigation is a new restorative approach, referred to as immediate endodontic sealing (IES). The primary aim of this in vitro study was to investigate whether IES improved internal adaptation. The secondary aim was to investigate the influence of the viscosity of the composite used to seal the dentine, on the internal adaptation in both IES and DES groups. Third molars (n = 40) with fully developed apices were used. The teeth were prepared into standard Class II MO cavities, and divided in 4 groups according to the approach, and composite viscosity was used for sealing. Group 1: IES ? low viscosity composite; group 2: IES ? high viscosity composite; group 3: DES ? low viscosity composite; and group 4: DES ? high viscosity composite. Samples were then sectioned axially for observation using scanning electron microscopy. Outcome was evaluated by determining the internal adaptation of the samples, which was judged based on the percentage of a continuous margin at the tooth-composite interface. The results were analyzed using a two-way analysis of variance and Mann-Whitney test. IES groups exhibited significantly greater internal adaptation (p = 0.000) as compared with DES groups. Composite viscosity did not significantly affect internal adaptation in either IES or DES groups (p [ 0.005).
