Acidentes com soluções irrigadoras utilizadas na terapia endodôntica

Abstract

The usage of chemicals to assist in mechanical preparation of the root canal system (RCS) has as its main purpose to help cleaning this system. To do so, these solutions must show antimicrobial activity must dissolve tissue waste, promote lubrication, facilitating action endodontic instrumentations and display low toxicity to periapical tissues. Among these substances there are Sodium Hypoclorite, Chlorexidine and Apple Acider Vinegar. However, no auxiliary chemical meets all the requirements and ideal properties for the endodontic treatment to be successful. And there is a concern about the toxicity of these solutions, which can cause accidents or complications during chemical mechanical preparation of the RCS.
