4. Irrigation solution
• Is a chemical solution used to dissolve
organic and inorganic matter and kill
microbes effectively
• the only way to impact those areas of the
root canal wall that are not touched by
mechanical instrumentation.
19. Conclusion
• Successful root canal therapy depends on
thorough chemomechanical debridement of root
canal
• There is no single irrigating solution that alone
sufficiently covers all of the functions required
from an irrigant.
• Optimal irrigation is based on the combined use
of two or several irrigating solutions, in a specific
sequence.
