Chelating Agents In Endodontics :An Overview.
Journal Title: International Journal of Medical Science and Innovative Research (IJMSIR) - Year 2019, Vol 4, Issue 2
Abstract
Chelating agents were developed in endodontics as an aid for preparation of narrow and calcified root canals. Clinically chelating agents are used along with irrigating solutions to facilitate root canal instrumentation and to remove the smear layer. The main purpose for removal of the smear layer is to eliminate the micro-organisms from the root canal and disinfect the open dentinal tubules. Various chelating agents like EDTA , chitosan, peracetic acid, maleic acid, citric acid and etidronate have potential to maximize root canal disinfection. This article presents an overview of chelating agents and focusing on its relevance in endodontics.
