“…Pradhan MS et al [54] aimed to make an herbal sodium hypochlorite solution by combining 6% sodium hypochlorite with 10% extracts of three herbal species (C. citarus, M. piperita, and O. sanctum). The authors hypothesized that the simultaneous antibacterial effect of this mixture might be achieved without sacrificing pH or chlorine levels.…”

For a long period of time, natural remedies were the only ailment available for a multitude of diseases, and they have proven effective even after the emergence of modern medicine. Due to their extremely high prevalence, oral and dental disorders and anomalies are recognized as major public health concerns. Herbal medicine is the practice of using plants with therapeutic characteristics for the purpose of disease prevention and treatment. Herbal agents have made a significant entry into oral care products in recent years, complementing traditional treatment procedures due to their intriguing physicochemical and therapeutic properties. There has been a resurgence of interest in natural products because of recent updates, technological advancements, and unmet expectations from current strategies. Approximately eighty percent of the world’s population uses natural remedies, especially in poorer nations. When conventional treatments have failed, it may make sense to use natural drugs for the treatment of pathologic oral dental disorders, as they are readily available, inexpensive, and have few negative effects. The purpose of this article is to provide a comprehensive analysis of the benefits and applications of natural biomaterials in dentistry, to gather relevant information from the medical literature with an eye toward its practical applicability, and make suggestions for the directions for future study.

“…But since the outbreak of the pandemic, its use has amplified unmeasurably. It is reported that halogenated volatile organic compounds (VOCs) such as chloroform and carbon tetrachloride present indoors possibly arise from the reaction of HOCl with organic surfactant compounds [54][55][56][57][58][59][60].…”

Sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) usage is increased extraordinarily after COVID-19. After lockdown, NaOCl is used as a disinfectant at every possible public and private place. Hospitals and Institutions were using it for the same purpose. In this study, NaOCl chemistry is investigated. Its impact on humans and the environment is also analyzed from the available literature. Although, some immediately recent research papers are also considered and mentioned in this paper. This paper also encapsulates information about NaOCl usage, advantage, comparison with other disinfectants, importance, precautions, etc. This study concludes the standardized use of NaOCland also recommends the policy required for its use.

Aim: Comparing the effect of Proanthocyanidin and Sodium thiosulfate solutions as final irrigants on the push-out bond strength of epoxy-resin sealer to sodium-hypochlorite-treated root dentin and studying the physicochemical properties of both solutions for potential routine use. Subjects and methods:Thirty-three single-rooted extracted teeth were decoronated and mechanicallyprepared using rotary NiTi instruments and irrigated with 2.5% sodium hypochlorite. Samples were randomly allocated into three groups according to the final irrigant: group1(control), Saline; group2, 6.5% proanthocyanidin, and group3, 5% sodium-thiosulfate. All samples were obturated using gutta-percha and AH-plus epoxy-resin sealer and then cross-sectioned and subjected to push-out bond strength test at different root levels. For physicochemical evaluation, a sample of each experimental irrigant was tested for surface tension using the du-Noüy-ring method via force-tensiometer. Viscosity was tested using a rotational digital viscometer and pH was measured using a benchtop pH-meter.Statistical analysis was performed using one-way ANOVA test followed by Tukey's post-hoc test for intergroup comparisons. Repeated measures ANOVA followed by Bonferroni post-hoc test were used for intragroup comparisons. The significance level was set at p ≤ 0.05.Results: Proanthocyanidin-treated group showed -significantly-the highest mean push-out bond strength values (~1.58 MPa) compared to other groups. Proanthocyanidin solution showed significantly lower mean surface tension (46.71 mN/m) and viscosity (37.43 KU). Sodium-thiosulfate showed a slightly alkaline pH (~8.2), while proanthocyanidin showed a slightly acidic pH (~5.8). Conclusions:Proanthocyanidin solution can improve the bond strength of epoxy-resin sealer to sodiumhypochlorite-treated dentin. It also showed favorable physicochemical properties that make it promising for routine endodontic use.
