Abstract

Root canal irrigation plays an important role in the debridement and disinfection of the canal systems, and is an integral part of the biomechanical preparation procedures. The bacterial contamination of the root canal is of great concern in endodontics; the elimination of microoganisms and necrotic tissues from the root canal is essential for a successfully outcome. Regardless of the technique used, particular attention must be given to the appropriate and safe use of the chemical solution. The literature concerning the aetiology, symptomatology and complications during root canal irrigation is reviewed.
