Abstract:
During canal preparation, the repeated passage of instruments provokes the formation of smear on the surface of the dentin. It is advisable to eliminate that, so as to increase antisepsis and filling impermeability. This is obtained by means of an irrigation, using a chelate compound of 6% citric acid for 60 seconds, at the end of the preparation.
