Abstract

Part two of this chemical endodontic disinfection protocol review discusses adjunctive practices such as irrigant activation techniques and intracanal medicaments with a look into the future of endodontics. Scientific platforms such as Pubmed and Google Scholar
were (re)searched using the keywords: endodontics, endodontic disinfection, root canal disinfection, endodontic chemical debridement, endodontic irrigation, endodontic solutions, endodontic irrigant activation, and intracanal medicaments. Relevant articles were identified, screened, reviewed, and discussed.
