Abstract

The main purpose of endodontic therapy is decontamination of the entire endodontic system, which means removal of the infected content of the root canal, dentinal debris and the intracanalar microbiota. For the maintaining of the biostructure and physical properties of dentin, the concept of minimally invasive approach has to be implemented, and the special role of the adjunctive irrigation method is emphasized. The varied root configurations and anatomical complexity represent a permanent challenge for modeling and chemical debridement of the endodontic space.
