Investigation on the antimicrobial activity of chitosan-modified zinc oxide-eugenol cement
Introduction: Coronal leakage and reinfection after root canal therapy is an important reason for endodontic failure. Zinc oxide-eugenol (ZOE) -based materials are often used as a coronal seal to prevent secondary infection.
