Intracanal Irrigants Used in Pediatric Endodontic Treatment: A Review

Root canal therapy success in deciduous teethis achieved by meticulous removal of debris and necrotic tissue.Anatomy and ischolar_main resorption increasethe complexity of the primary ischolar_main canal system during instrumentation. Also, the formation of smear layer during instrumentation of ischolar_main canal hinders the cleaning and shaping of ischolar_main canal system. These are the major hindrance in complete eradication of bacteria while performing cleaning & shaping of ischolar_main canal systems. The use of irrigants in ischolar_main canalalong with mechanical instrumentation is very effective during procedure of cleaning and shaping in endodontic treatment. The irrigants that are most routinely used include saline, sodium hypochlorite, EDTA, chlorhexidine and MTAD. None of the irrigants alone fulfill the ideal requirements for optimal activity. Various studies have shown that anirrigating solution when used in a particular sequence is better in attaining optimal irrigation. The purpose of this article is to study the effectiveness & correlation among various available ischolar_main canal irrigants used in pediatric dentistry.
