ABSTRACT This systematic review following PRISMA guidelines evaluated the effects of endodontic chelators on free available chlorine (FAC) in sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl), with emphasis on the influence of concentration, contact time, temperature, and pH. Risk of bias was assessed using the Quality Assessment Tool for In Vitro Studies (QUIN).

Is Cone‐Beam CT Reliable for Apical Foramen Assessment? A Micro‐CT–Referenced Study
ABSTRACT This study evaluated the diagnostic accuracy of two cone‐beam CT (CBCT) dose protocols for identifying the number and trajectory deviation of apical foramina. Forty lower molars were scanned in Micro‐CT. Thereafter, all teeth were inserted into the mandible sockets and a titanium implant and an endodontically treated tooth with a cobalt ...

ABSTRACT This study evaluated the effects of kinematics (reciprocating vs. continuous rotation) and rotational speed (350 vs. 1200 rpm) on filling removal, canal transportation, and apical extrusion during retreatment of curved root canals. Vertucci type II mesial roots of mandibular molars were prepared, filled, and scanned by micro‐computed ...

De‐Implementing Low‐Value Care in Dentistry: The Case for Choosing Wisely Campaigns
ABSTRACT De‐implementation refers to the practice within implementation science that targets reducing low‐value care; that is practices that have been proven to be outdated, unnecessary, potentially harmful and in some cases not cost‐efficient. Reducing and removing habitual practices, as well as introducing new care, is not easy, as there are multiple
