An In Vitro Investigation of the Impact of Ultrasound Induced‐Streaming Motions on the Flow Inside Lateral Features of the Root Canal
The flow during ultrasonic irrigation inside lateral features of the root canal is complex and considerably affected by the position of the endodontic file and the inclination of the channel. An optimum location of the file tip leads to maximization of the induced velocity inside the lateral canal, suggesting more effective cleaning.
