Comparative evaluation of effect of N-acetyl cysteine, maleic acid, and ethylenediaminetetraacetic Acid on the depth of dentinal tubule penetration of an epoxy resin-based root canal sealer: A confocal laser scanning microscopy study
While all irrigants enhanced sealer penetration, 7% MA was most effective in the apical region. Both 7% MA and 20% NAC can serve as alternatives to 17% EDTA for final irrigation.
