Objective: This systematic review aimed to discuss a possible effect of sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) over the novel severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), the new generation of corona virus, which was reported firstly in December 2019 in Wuhan, China. Methods: Electronic search was performed for studies up to March 31, 2021 in the following databases: PubMed, LILACS, BBO, Scopus, web of science and Cochrane considering clinical trials and laboratory studies that evaluated the action of NaOCl over SARS-CoV-2. Results: Numerous founded studies reported effectivity of NaOCl in different concentrations and exposure times over corona viruses including the SARS-CoV-2. However, none of the studies evaluated this action in the root canal system. No metanalysis was conducted due to variability of methods or lack of information of included articles. Conclusion: NaOCl has a possible effectivity over SARS-CoV-2 as it dissolves the organic material of virus membrane, but this should be evaluated in the root canal systems.

ABSTRACT Aim To evaluate the interference of the intracanal medication Calen® (SSWhite, São Paulo, Brazil) on the filling of simulated lateral canals. Materials and methods Twenty human anterior teeth were used. Before the endodontic filling procedures the access of cavity was made, and after this root canals were made in all the teeth to simulate the presence of lateral canals. After preparation, the teeth were randomly divided into two groups (n=10). In group I, the root canal system was filled directly after chemicalmechanical preparation; in group II, endodontic treatment was performed in multiple sessions, and after preparation the calcium hydroxide-based intracanal medication Calen® was inserted. After the period of 7 days, the root canals were vigorously irrigated and then they were filled. Next, the teeth were radiographed to verify the quality of the filling. Results The results demonstrated that the teeth treated in a single session, without calcium hydroxide medication, presented 47 canals out of 60 with radiographic evidence of filling, whereas the teeth in which intracanal medication was used, only 07 presented a radiographic image compatible with filling (p < 0.05). Conclusion The use of the calcium hydroxide-based medication Calen made it difficult to obtain a hermetic filling of the root canal system. Clinical significance The clinical significance of this work basing on the fact that once the dentist knowing that property obliteration of calcium hydroxide can be taken care when they are used in the presence of lateral canals.

Cleaning and shaping of the root canal as the foundation for successful endodontic therapy. Cleaning of the root canal as the removal of all the contents of the root canal systems before and during shaping. Mechanical cleaning as the most important part of the root canal therapy. Instrumentation of the apical region has long been considered to be an essential component in the cleaning and shaping process. The apical area as the critical zone for instrumentation. The apical portion of the root canal system can retain microorganisms that could potentially cause periradicular inflammation. The nickel-titanium rotary instrumentation system to facilitate the cleaning and shaping process. Larger instrumentation sizes not only allow proper irrigation but also significantly decrease remaining bacteria in the canal system. How the larger apical sizes preparation must be achieved to clinical success. This paper will describe the major factors impacting the selection of final apical size, the factors are the anatomy of the apical constriction, root canal diameter, apical instrumentation, and bacteria in dentin tubuli.

Present Systematic Review

Aim: The effective delivery of irrigants into the inaccessible areas of the root canal system is the prerequisite for a proper disinfection of the root canal system. Numerous activation devices that can provide effective delivery of the irrigant and aid in the success of the root canal treatment are available. The activation of irrigants has claimed to be effective in in vitro and clinical trials. Hence, the present systematic review aims to analyze the effect of irrigants and irrigating devices in disinfecting the root canal system. Materials and Methods: A literature search was undertaken in PubMed, Cochrane, Web of Science, and Scopus databases. The inclusion criteria included clinical trials, both in vivo and ex vivo. The exclusion criteria included animal studies, textbooks, review articles, and case reports. The patients who required endodontic treatment along with the activation of irrigants were chosen as participants for the review. Result: The search strategy screened around 132 articles, out of which only 10 were selected for the present systematic review. The risk of bias was calculated based on the following scores: 3, high; 2, moderate; and 1, low. In the present systematic review, four articles were categorized into low-risk bias, three articles were classified as moderate risk, and three articles belonged to the high-risk category. Conclusion: The present systematic review concluded that the use of a mechanical activation device along with the irrigant will help in better removal of the smear layer and debris from the root canal system, improving the cleanliness and helping achieve more successful endodontic treatment.

Los microorganismos son el primer factor etiológico de la enfermedad pulpar y periapical, por lo tanto si estos persisten en los túbulos dentinarios y  no se eliminan por completo pueden reinfectar el canal radicular y conllevar al fracaso del tratamiento endodóntico realizado. Las soluciones irrigantes son las encargadas de disolver los restos de tejido pulpar así como la destrucción bacteriana. En la actualidad a los Compuestos Fenólicos Sulfonados (CFS) se les atribuye una amplia gama de aplicaciones en el campo odontológico. Es por esto que el objetivo del presente trabajo  consistió en revisar de la literatura relacionada a la actividad antimicrobiana in vitro de Compuestos fenólicos Sulfonados sobre bacterias del conducto radicular. Para esto se realizó una búsqueda sistemática en la base de datos PubMed. De la búsqueda realizada no se encontraron resultados relacionados al objetivo propuesto; sin embargo, se discutieron cuatro artículos relacionados a los CFS. A partir de lo observado, se sugieren realizar estudios in  vitro e in vivo que sustenten el empleo de dichos compuestos en la práctica endodóntica.

Endodontic Sealers

The endodontic retreatment is a feasible solution when post-operative apical periodontitis persists or develops. The complete removal of the filling materials is important in order to ensure the unobstructed contact of the intracanal disinfectants with the microbes. As a new generation of bioceramic endodontic sealers has emerged, their removal efficacy from the root canal system during retreatment is a matter of concern among clinicians. The aim of this article is to provide a comprehensive review of the current literature on the retreatability of these novel obturating materials. A significant amount of bioceramic sealer remnants in the root canal walls was observed in all studies.  Even though canal cleanliness could not be obtained at an ideal level, the re-establishment of the working length and patency can be considered manageable and comparable to other endodontic sealers.

In the endodontic treatment of root canals with necrotic pulps associated with periapical radiolucent areas, one of the main objectives of treatment consists in eliminating the microorganisms spread throughout the ramifications of the root canal system. The scope of this study was to evaluate the antiseptic efficacy of biomechanical preparation and two calcium hydroxide-based pastes, in dogs' teeth with experimentally induced chronic periapical lesions. After initial microbiological sampling, instrumentation of the root canals was undertaken using the conventional technique, using K type files used in conjunction with a solution of 5.25% sodium hypochlorite. After ninety-six hours, further microbiological sampling was undertaken and Calen/CPMC or Calasept pastes were applied for 15 and 30 days. Ninety six hours after the removal of the medication, the third microbiological sampling was undertaken and finally histomicrobiological analysis followed using Brown & Brenn staining. The results were analyzed using the Kruskall-Wallis test, with a level of significance established at 5% (p<0.05). It was shown that the biomechanical preparation significantly reduced the number of colony forming units of microorganisms in root canals. In contrast, there was no significant difference between the antiseptic action of long-term dressings over two periods of action, although 30 days produced a greater reduction in the quantity of microorganisms and of positive microbiological cultures. In histological sections of the four experimental groups, similar microbiological patterns were shown (p>0.05), characterized by an elevated incidence of cocci, bacilli and filaments, predominantly gram-positive, in root canals, secondary canals and accessories, apical cementoplasts and dentinal tubules, but with a low incidence of microorganisms in areas of cementum resorption and the periapical lesion. The biomechanical preparation and intracanal dressing based on calcium hydroxide were important in the antisepsis of the root canal; however, both procedures did not produce significant changes in the microbiological aspects of the root canal system.
