Aim: The aim of this systematic review was to investigate the in vitro antibacterial effect of sodium hypochlorite gel on Enterococcus faecalis during root canal treatment. Methods: An electronic databases (PubMed, ScienceDirect, Google Scholar, CENTRAL, Health Advance) was performed (last updated was 1st April 2019). The reference lists of the included studies were hand-searched. Randomized in vitro studies that compared sodium hypochlorite gel to solution as a root canal irrigant were included. No limitation on publication date. Results: Out of 20741 articles, only two studies with 116 human teeth were included in this review. The studies showed 50% high risk of bias, and 50% medium risk of bias for the included studies. Both sodium hypochlorite gel and solution had some bacterial growth inhibition over E. faecalis. The heterogeneity in methodology of the included studies and the lack of high evidence led to contradictory results. However, sodium hypochlorite solution was better in enhancing the antibacterial effect according to the robust study. Conclusion: There is insufficient reliable evidence about the antibacterial effect of sodium hypochlorite gel on enterococcus faecalis. Although the robust study included in this review revealed that sodium hypochlorite gel is less efficient than the solution as a root canal irrigant, further studies are needed to consider the most effective type, concentration, duration and treatment protocols in enhancing the antibacterial effect of sodium hypochlorite.

Abstract The re-use of healing abutments (HAs) has become common practice in implant dentistry for economic concerns and the aim of this in-vitro study was to assess the effect of sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) in decontamination of HAs. 122 HAs (Used and sterilized n=107; New n=15) were procured from 3 centers, of which 3 samples were discarded due to perforation in sterilization pouch.  For sterility assessment, the used HAs (n=80) were cultured in Brain Heart Infusion Broth (BHI) and Potato Dextrose Agar (PDA), bacterial isolates were identified in 7 samples. Also, 24 used HAs were stained with Phloxine B, photographed and compared to new HAs (n=5). Scanning electron microscope (SEM) assessed the differences between the two sets of HAs, following which the 7 contaminated HAs along with 24 used HAs from staining experiment (Total=31) were subsequently treated with sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) and SEM images were observed. About 8.75% of HAs tested positive in bacterial culture; Streptococcus sanguis, Dermabacter hominis, Staphylococcus haemolyticus, and Aspergillus species were isolated. Phloxine B staining was positive for used and sterilized HAs when compared to controls. The SEM images revealed deposits in the used HAs and although treatment with NaOCl eliminated the contamination of cultured HAs, the SEM showed visible debris in the HA thread region. This in-vitro study concluded that SEM images showed debris in used HAs at screw-hole and thread regions even though they tested negative in bacterial culture. The treatment with NaOCl of used HAs showed no bacterial contamination but the debris was observed in SEM images. Future studies on the chemical composition, biological implications, and clinical influence is warranted before considering the reuse of HAs.

Aim: To evaluate the surface detail reproduction of dental stone this is immersed in different disinfectant solution and studied under stereomicroscope. Methodology: Total number of 30 specimens of dental stone (Type III) were made with measurements of 1.5cm diameter and 1cm height .This samples are divided in to 3 groups group A,B,C. were A is immersed in Distilled water which was taken as control group ;B is immersed in 2% Glutaraldehyde and C is immersed in 5%sodium hypochlorite. Each specimen were immersed in the disinfectant solution for 15 minutes and dried under room temperature for 24 hrs. After 24 hrs each specimens are studied under stereomicroscope for surface details. Result: The results showed no significant difference in the surface irregularities and porosities for a group 1 and group 2 except group 3 which showed significant increase in the porosities, surface irregularities and erosions after disinfection with 5% NaHOCl by immersion method. Conclusion: The surface detail reproduction capacity of die stone was adversely affected when 5% Sodium hypochlorite was used as disinfectant solution when compare d to control group and 2% Glutaraldehyde
