Estudo da variação da permeabilidade, limpeza e contaminação do sistema de canais radiculares, após o preparo químico-cirúrgico e aplicação de laser de alta intensidade / Study of the variation of permeability, cleaning and contamination of the root canal system after preparation and application of high-intensity

RESUMO

A importância do aumento da permeabilidade e da limpeza da dentina radicular está ligada à melhora da sanificação e obturação do sistema de canais radiculares...

ABSTRACT

The permeability increasing and the cleanliness of root dentin walls are important to improve the sanitization and root canal filling. Thus, this study aimed to evaluate the variations of root dentin permebility of human teeth, after endodontic preparation followed by ErYAG and NdYAG laser irradiation, using free Technetium-99m radioisotope (99mTc) as tracer. Additionally, SEM images were analyzed to evaluate the cleanliness of dentin walls and possible bacterial adhesion after Enterococcus faecalis inoculation...
