DENTIN INTEGRITY: ANALYZING THE EFFECTS OF IRRIGATION SOLUTIONS IN ROOT CANAL TREATMENT
Abstract
Root canal treatment is a critical procedure in endodontics, aiming to preserve the integrity of the dentin while eliminating infection within the root canal system. Irrigation solutions play a crucial role in this process, yet their impact on dentin integrity remains a subject of study and debate. This paper conducts a comprehensive analysis of the effects of irrigation solutions on root canal dentin. Through an examination of various irrigation solutions, including their chemical composition and interactions with dentin, this analysis aims to elucidate their influence on dentin structure, properties, and bond strength. Moreover, the potential implications for clinical outcomes and long-term success of root canal treatment are explored. By synthesizing existing research findings, this paper provides valuable insights into optimizing irrigation protocols to preserve dentin integrity and enhance the efficacy of root canal therapy Root canal treatment, dentin integrity, irrigation solutions, endodontics, chemical composition, bond strength.
