Effectiveness of silver–graphene oxide nanoparticle against Enterococcus faecalis biofilms in the root canal
3% NaOCl was the most effective solution in terms of antibacterial activity and smear layer removal. 0.25% AgGO and 2% CHX showed moderate effectiveness in removing E. faecalis biofilms and smear layer which suggests that both have potential as alternative irrigants.
