. Irrigants perform important physical and biological roles during endodontic therapy. When there is wet environment during canal preparation the dentin debrises are floated to the chamber. Where they be remove by paper points or others. . Many liquids would provide these aids, but in addition the irrigants that are typically used have the function of being necrotic tissue solvents.

. Because reamers and files much too small to fit into accessory canals, it is the solvents action that removes the tissue remaining and also the subsequently filling material may be packed or pushed into these areas. . The commonly used irrigants are capable of causing inflammation of periapical tissue. Therefore instrumentation must be confined within the canal to limit the forcing of irrigants through the apical foramen.

5. Temperature.
Remember:
The smear layer is a micro crystalline layer of cutting debris covering the canal walls after the preparation and its removal may aid in better adaptation of the obturating materials to the canal walls. It consist of: A. Organic layer ----- removed by irrigants. B. Inorganic layer --- removed by chealating agent.

Types of Irrigants
1. Sodium hypochloride (NaOCL)(PH 12 13). . The most popular irrigant. . It provides: a. Gross debridement. b. Dissolution of tissue. c. Lubricant. d. Antibacterial.
7
. Warming NaOCL increases its tissue solvent effect. . It is provided in bottles of 5.2%. . It, is clear, pale, green yellow liquid, with strong odor of chlorine. . Solution should always be performed passively especially in cases with larger apical diameters, and needles with very small diameter, also the syringes should never be locked in the canal.
8
. Combining 5.25% NaOCL + 3% H2O2 proved to be better than saline alone at 1 3mm level of the canal. . If Hydrogen Peroxide is used, final irrigant should be NaOCL because, it may cause either: 1. Tissue emphysema if it passes to the periapical tissue. 2. Post Operative Pain.

4. Organic acid as citric acid 10 25% in combination with NaOCL removes smear layer.
5. MTAD M ----- Mixture of T ----- Tetracycline A ----- Acid (citric acid) D ----- Detergent Recommendation: 1.3 2.5% NaOCL is the irrigant of choice during the preparation. 12
Method of Irrigation
. Plastic syringe of acceptable needle gauge. 30 = 30 File Iso. 27 = 40 File Iso. 25 = 50 File Iso. 23 = 60 File Iso. 21 = 80 File Iso.
13
. Bending the needle and it must lie passively in the canal as forceful irrigation can push the irrigant into the periapical tissue.
14
The Ultrasonic Irrigation: Considered the most effective method of irrigation where vibration motion of files inside the canal: 1. Move irrigant in Vortex motion cleaning the area which cannot be reached by files. 2. The motion causes worming of the irrigant, increasing its action.
15
Combination of Irrigants
1. H2O2 NaOCL ---- Foaming action. 2. EDTA + NaOCL ---- Removes Smear Layer. 3. EDTA + Urea Peroxide + NaOCL increase bubbling action, debridement and removal of smear layer. 4. MTAD + NaOCL: For disinfection and smear layer removal.
16
Chealating Agents
. Chelate: react with calcium, so their action is to react with calcium ions and substitute it by sodium ions which can bind to dentin to give soluble salt. . It used to enlarge narrow curved and calcified canals. . Aids in the removal of Smear Layer (inorganic part).
17
b. EDTA C:
EDTA Cetavlon which increases anti bacterial activity. . Combination of EDTA + Urea peroxide, provides both chelation and irrigation.

II. The use of traditional medicaments is decreased, because: a. Intra canal bacterial population can be eliminated by careful instrumentation and irrigation. b. Lack of evidence of medicament usefulness. c. Toxicity.
21
. Their effect is probably limited to surface action only and does not reach the area, where the bacteria are hidden.
22
2. Duration:
. Most agents should remain chemically active for the period of time between appointments, in order to be effective.
. Phenolics loose their activity within 24 hrs.
23
3. Toxicity:
a. Any chemical that kills bacteria, will also kill host cells (Phenol, aldehyde). b. An adverse side effect is also: Allergenicity. As the medicaments may act as a hapten and alter the tissue to become foreign substances, producing an immune response. May be responsible for their localized adverse effect on the pulp and / or periapical tissue. 24
4. Distribution:
. The pulp is not isolated from the rest of the body, as the pulp has a ready accessibility to the periapical tissue and even to the systemic circulation.

2. Antibiotics: It was tried as intra canal medication, but fear of developing bacterial resistance which leads, to decrease its use. 3. Steroids: It was tried due to its anti inflammatory effect, to avoid post operative pain.
