“…In the present study, ozone had an important antibacterial effect eliminating a significant amount of E. faecalis biofilms in 240 seconds. [29][30][31][32][33][34][35] There were significant reductions of E. faecalis biofilms in the ozone group (p < 0.05); however, it was not superior to 5% sodium hypochlorite. A number of studies have put forth that the use of diode laser as an accessory to conventional root canal disinfection can have an added value.…”

Aim:To comparatively assess the antibacterial effectiveness of 5% sodium hypochlorite, 940 nm diode laser, and gaseous ozone against Enterococcus faecalis biofilm produced on the substrate. Materials and methods:Freshly extracted maxillary central incisor teeth of human source were decoronated and vertically sectioned after biomechanical preparation.The samples were then, after sterilization, placed in Eppendorf tubes filled with 1 mL of bacterial solution containing 1.5 × 10 5 colony-forming units (CFUs)/mL of E. faecalis. Then, these adulterated samples were divided into four groups (n = 8) depending upon the method of disinfection used: group I, 5% sodium hypochlorite (positive control); group II, normal saline (negative control); group III, gaseous ozone; and group IV, 940 nm diode laser.At the conclusion of 3 weeks, all the samples were disinfected according to their groups and were analyzed qualitatively and quantitatively. Results:The positive control group (5% sodium hypochlorite) showed statistically significant results in comparison with the other three groups (p < 0.05). Statistically, there was no significant difference found between the experimental groups, i.e., ozone group and diode laser group (p > 0.05). Conclusion:A 5% sodium hypochlorite showed the highest antibacterial effect against E. faecalis biofilm formed on substrate, i.e., tooth. Both diode laser and gaseous ozone groups have a statistically significant antibacterial action on the infected root canals.Efficacy of 5% Sodium Hypochlorite, 940 nm Diode Laser, and Gaseous Ozone against Enterococcus faecalis Biofilm formed on Tooth Substrate: A Scanning Electron Microscope Study.

Aim: evaluate outcomes of single visit regenerative endodontic procedures using conventional irrigation protocol in comparison to LASER disinfection in comparison to 0.2% Nano Chitosan irrigating solution for treatment of necrotic mature anterior teeth with periapical lesions.Methodology: 45 patients were recruited in this trial. Preoperative standardized cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) was performed for the patients after fulfillment of inclusion criteria.After complete diagnostic steps and signing of consent forms and performance of access cavity preparation,patients were randomly distributed into three groups with three disinfection maneuvers:1. Group A (Intervention 1)final disinfection using Low Power Diode LASER disinfection. Group B (Intervention 2 ) final rinseusing 0.2% Nano Chitosan irrigation disinfection in a side perforated needle.3. Group C (Control) conventional irrigation protocol using 1.25% sodium hypochlorite irrigating solution and 17% EDTA only.Platelet rich fibrin was packed inside the root canals followed by collagen plug and Biodentin. Teeth were restored using resin modified glass ionomer.Patients were recalled for regular follow ups at 6 and 12 months. Patients were examined for survival of treated teeth and any inflammatory signs or symptoms. All samples were tested for sensibility. All data were statistically analyzed.Results: Single visit regenerative endodontics possessed an overall percentage of success 95.5% in all groups in terms of survival of treated teeth. Regarding sensibility nano chitosan also possessed the highest percentage of cases regaining sensitivity by 73.3% followed by laser group 67.7% followed by the control group with 46.7% also with no statistical significant difference between all groups. Conclusion:Within limitations of this study single visit regenerative endodontics can be applied to cases with necrotic pulps and periapical lesions where thorough disinfection is recommended in cases of single visit approach to ensure maximum elimination of bacterial cells from root canal hindering successful

“… 1 Among many irrigants used for the above purpose, NaOCl remains to be the gold standard due to its excellent tissue dissolution and antimicrobial activity contributing to its proteolytic effect. 2 …”

“…However, due to the anatomic complexities of root canals, especially of the primary teeth, the deep invasion into the dentinal tubules by microorganisms, such as E. faecalis, results in the formation of resistant biofilms that makes the complete cleaning of the root canal system difficult using standard irrigants alone. 2 , 3 Therefore, to increase the efficacy of the irrigating solutions, methods like laser-activated irrigation have been considered effective. The laser radiation energy is strongly absorbed by the irrigant solution leading to its transitory cavitation due to optical disintegration.…”

A bstract Aim To evaluate and compare the antimicrobial efficacy of 2.5% sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) and Aquatine Endodontic Cleanser (EC) with and without laser-activated disinfection against Enterococcus faecalis in the root canals of primary teeth. Materials and methods A total of 45 human primary teeth were selected and inoculated with E. faecalis and divided into three groups as per intervention. In group I, irrigation was done using 2.5% NaOCl, in group II using Aquatine EC solution, and in group III with Aquatine EC activated by 810 nm diode laser. Results Intragroup comparisons showed a decrease in colony-forming units in all three groups. Intergroup comparisons showed a statistically significant difference between group I and group II ( p = 0.024) and between group I and group III ( p = 0.03). Conclusion Aquatine EC showed maximum antimicrobial efficacy under laser activation. Clinical significance Aquatine EC can be considered a suitable alternative to NaOCl in light of its known toxic effects. How to cite this article Kodical S, Attiguppe P, Siddalingappa RO, et al.
