Efficacy of sodium hypochlorite in root canal irrigation
Keywords:
sodium hypochlorite, effectiveness, disinfection, root canalAbstract
Introduction: success in endodontic treatment depends on the type of irrigating solution used, in order to obtain a clean and shaped space and proceed to effectively obturate and seal the canal. Sodium hypochlorite is considered by several authors to be the first-choice irrigation solution due to its bactericidal properties. Objective: is to analyze the effectiveness of Sodium Hypochlorite as an irrigating solution for root canals. Method: a series of authors from the most relevant journals and publications in the SciELO database, Google Academic, Pubmed were selected. Research is included under inclusion and exclusion criteria. Results: the most used concentrations of sodium hypochlorite are 2.25%, some authors stating that the higher the percentage, the greater the effectiveness of disinfection of the root canal. Final considerations: sodium hypochlorite is considered the first-choice irrigating substance for the correct disinfection of root canals.
