TI  - THE EFFECT OF CONCENTRATION, TEMPERATURE AND  ACTIVATION ON THE DENTINAL TUBULE PENETRATION OF  SODIUM HYPOCHLORITE DURING FINAL IRRIGATION
AB  - Background and Aim: The purpose of this study was to  evaluate and compare the effects of different activation  methods on the penetration of acid fuchsin-labelled sodium  hypochlorite (NaOCl) at different concentrations (2.5% or  5.25%) and temperatures (room-temperature or 60°C) into the  dentinal tubules via stereomicroscope.  Materials and Methods: 128 mandibular premolar teeth  were instrumented with ProTaper Universal System up to  F3. The samples were randomly divided into 16 groups (n=8/ group) for final irrigation: Manual needle irrigation, EndoVac,  EndoActivator or RinsEndo combined with 2.5%/5.25% NaOCl  at room-temperature/60°C. Embedded samples into acrylic  resin were sectioned transversely in 1mm thickness at 3-, 5-  and 8-mm from the apex. Penetration depth and percentage  were evaluated under a stereomicroscope. Data were analyzed  statistically.  Results: Regardless of temperature and concentration,  RinsEndo resulted in statistically higher penetration depth and  percentage values in all thirds (p<0.05). Higher temperatures  also resulted in deeper penetration values (p<0.05).  Conclusion: Activation of 60°C NaOCl at lower concentrations  might be advantageous for improving its dentinal penetration  instead of manual needle irrigation.
