Smear layer can be modified to a structure that is more stable and resitant to microleakage and ultimately prove to be beneficial for the long term success of endodontic therapy and certain operative procedures. Advocates of this theory claim that since no technique can completely remove the ...
Diode laser offers the capacity to activate irrigants [3]. As a result, the current research aims to examine the effectiveness of 980 nm Diode Laser (DL) and Twin Kleen irrigant individually in addition to the combo for removing smear layer (SL) from tooth canals in single-rooted teeth....
Two reviewers independently evaluated the risk of bias in the selected studies. The search retrieved 2330 studies. After analysis, 36 studies fulfilled the eligibility criteria and were included, with 19 involving smear layer removal, 16 involving antibacterial efficacy, and 1 involving both. The ...
