Root canal disinfection: a review of concepts and recent developments
Abstract
This paper reviews current concepts of root canal infection and the consequences for endodontic treatment strategies and practices. In particular, root canal disinfection by chemical and mechanical means is discussed, as are the possibilities and limitations of proposed methods to reduce the time necessary to obtain a disinfected canal.
