Smear layer dissolution by peracetic acid of low concentration [PDF]

International endodontic journal, 2011
AIM: To test the effect of a noncaustic concentration of peracetic acid (PAA) in a standardized smear layer model. METHODOLOGY: The smear layer dissolution kinetics of 0.5% PAA on human dentine were compared to those of 2.25% PAA and 17% ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) solutions.

An in vitro evaluation of smear layer removal with non-activated self adjusting file, xp-endo finisher and rotary canal brush

Journal of Dr. NTR University of Health Sciences, 2022
Background: Endodontic success involves removal of necrotic vital tissue and microorganisms from the root canal. Irrigation is an essential part of canal debridement, because it allows cleaning beyond what might be achieved by instrumentation alone. Aim:

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 ...
