Key Points

The aim is to evaluate the effectiveness of heated versus non-heated sodium hypochlorite in penetrating lateral canals using negative pressure irrigation.
Conducted experiments on sixty single rooted teeth with simulated lateral canals.
Created a closed system with modeling wax to mimic clinical conditions.
Divided teeth into three experimental groups to assess irrigation methods.
Heated sodium hypochlorite showed superior penetration into lateral canals compared to non-heated.
Negative pressure irrigation enhanced the distribution of the irrigant throughout the root canal system.
Statistically significant differences in penetration depth were observed between the groups.

We only have this paper's title and publication details.

Irrigation techniques enhance sodium hypochlorite penetration in lateral canals, suggesting improved root canal treatment outcomes.
