Comparative evaluation of smear layer removal efficacy of neem leaf extract, propolis, and orange oil when used as endodontic irrigants: An in vitro scanning electron microscopic study

Contemporary Clinical Dentistry, 2023
Introduction: In root canal treatment, chemical debridement of the root canal with the help of irrigants is important due to the complex internal anatomy of the teeth. Biomechanical root canal preparation produces a smear layer.

Efficacy of smear layer removal by two Ayurvedic herbal irrigants, using continuous vs. syringe and needle irrigation

Endodontology, 2019
Introduction: A successful root canal therapy is largely dependent on thorough chemo-mechanical debridement of the root canal space. However, mechanical preparation inadvertently forms an amorphous layer, known as the “smear layer.” Traditionally used ...
