“…Nowadays, there is increased use of the term "modern endodontics" to refer to contemporary applied science and actual materials that have been introduced and invented in recent years. Diverse endodontic tools and technological devices have been designed to facilitate and enhance treatments [1], for example, magnification using the operative microscope, sonic and ultrasonic appliances, and certain laser machines. Moreover, modified alloys for NI-Ti rotary files and potent irrigation techniques were invented for the cleaning and shaping phases.…”

According to contemporary dental standards, the primary goal of endodontic therapy is the chemo-mechanical cleaning of the complex root canal system. Watering root canals with approved solutions and activating them are essential parts of this operation. This review outlines various irrigant activation methods for root canal therapy. Specifically, a comparison among the methods of manual dynamic activation, sonics (subsonic, sonic, and ultrasonic), internal heating, and lasers, was conducted. The results in this work were gathered using Scopus, Web of Science, Google Scholar, and PubMed databases by searching the following keywords: sodium hypochlorite, cleaning, activation, and irrigation methods. The present work concluded that the use of irrigant activation has a greater benefit than its absence. Regardless, it is impossible to point to a single effective activation method.

“…Additionally, research has shown that Asians may be more susceptible to preexisting mental health conditions such as anxiety and depression, which can affect their quality of life after treatment. Finally, research suggests that cultural differences in communication and doctor-patient relationships may also play a role and that Asians may be uncomfortable being around dentists and experience more stress and anxiety [30].…”

Background: The current systematic review examines the complex picture of endodontic treatment, including quality of life, patient satisfaction, and caries prevalence, through 24 research studies conducted in various European countries. Methodology: A thorough and methodical search of the literature was carried out using five major electronic databases' predefined keywords and phrases. In strict compliance with PRISMA guidelines, this study included a variety of designs, mainly randomized and prospective studies. This review examines the challenges of endodontic treatment, examines in detail the characteristics and indications for root canal fillings, and highlights the importance of assessing health-related quality of life (HRQOL) and patient-reported experience measures (PREMs). Results: In particular, patients who undergo root canal treatment experience a statistically significant improvement in their quality of life compared to patients who choose to have their teeth extracted. Looking at prevalence rates globally reveals interesting regional differences. In particular, European and American populations perform better. These differences are due to factors such as patient compliance, better tools, and trained healthcare providers, which lead to improved HR quality of life. Conclusion: In conclusion, this systematic review highlights the need for further research to not only reveal the differences in endodontic treatment but also to match patient expectations, thereby promoting continued improvement in treatment outcomes and overall quality of life. The study found that European patients experienced significant improvements in quality of life after root canal treatment. Pain and discomfort decrease, 75% of patients experience less pain and discomfort after treatment. Additionally, the majority of patients report improvements in their lives after treatment. These findings suggest that root canal treatment is an effective way to improve the quality of life of European patients. This study highlights the importance of addressing patients' concerns and fears regarding dental procedures and improving communication and doctor-patient relationships to improve root canal treatment. Overall, this study provides a good insight into the impact of root canal treatment on the quality of life of European patients and has important implications for the development of care strategies for patients in this population.

“…Over 35% of the root canal area remains untrimmed, regardless of the instrumentation technique used. Chemical preparation using disinfectant solutions to irrigate the root canal system is essential [4]. For this purpose, various irrigation liquids were introduced to the clinical procedures.…”

As indicated by standards of modern dentistry, the essence of endodontic treatment is chemo-mechanical disinfection of the root canal system. The vital element of this process is the irrigation of canals with designated solutions as well as activating them. This review article summarizes various techniques of activation of irrigants for endodontic treatment such as manual activation, thermal, pressure, sonic, ultrasonic, and laser techniques in order to compare them. Results were gathered using PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and Google Scholar databases by searching keywords: activation, irrigation, irrigation protocols, and sodium hypochlorite.
