Irrigation

Commented that “It seemed probable that there would be a greater amount of organic residue present following irrigation of longer, narrower, more convoluted root canals that impede the delivery of the irrigant.”

The ability of an irrigant to be distributed to the apical portion of a canal is dependent on:

• The ability of an irrigant to be distributed to the apical portion of a canal is dependent on:
• Canal anatomy
• Size of instrumentation
• Delivery system

• Commented that “The effectiveness of low concentrations of NaOCl may be improved by using larger volumes of irrigant or by the presence of replenished irrigant in the canals for longer periods of time.”
