Comparative evaluation of removal of oil-based calcium hydroxide intracanal medicaments with two calcium chelators: An in vitro cone-beam computed tomography volumetric analysis
The aqueous-based form of Ca(OH)<sub>2</sub> was removed more easily compared to the oil-based form. A combination of 0.2% chitosan and ultrasonics proved to be more effective than 17% EDTA in eliminating oil-based calcium hydroxide.
