The use of the vinegar as a chemical auxiliary in Endodontics: a literature review
Journal Title: RSBO - Year 2009, Vol 6, Issue 2
Abstract
Introduction: During the root canal instrumentation with the use of files, there is the formation of a layer called “smear layer”, which may hide among other elements microorganisms capable of perpetuating an endodontic infection, what can lead to endodontic treatment failure. Objective: To present a literature review of apple vinegar and its chemical properties as an auxiliary alternative substance in the permeability in dentin. Literature review: In the attempt to remove the smear layer, auxiliary substances that allow a better action of instruments are used, which also permit the permeability of the system of canals and the removal of organic remains and possible contaminants. Conclusion: The results had indicated that the use of the apple vinegar can be a viable alternative to assist chemistry in Endodontics.
