Irrigation

Although 0.5% NaOCl, with or without (EDTA), improved the antibacterial efficiency of preparation compared with saline irrigation, all canals could not be rendered bacteria free even after several appointments.

• Although 0.5% NaOCl, with or without (EDTA), improved the antibacterial efficiency of preparation compared with saline irrigation, all canals could not be rendered bacteria free even after several appointments.
• No significant difference in antibacterial efficiency in vivo between 0.5% and 5% NaOCl solutions.
