Abstract

Aim of this study is to find which among the given agents orange oil, eucalyptus oil and10% citric acid is better to remove silicone - oil based and aqueous based calcium hydroxide. Present study was performed on 60 human mandibular premolars extracted for orthodontic purpose. After  decoronation of the crown instrumentation was done with sequential ProTaper Universal rotary  files  using crown down technique up to F4 on all specimen. Teeth were divided into two groups of 30 teeth each randomly. Half no of teeth filled with vitapex and half with ultracalXs. Vitapex and ultracalXs in teeth were retrieved with 10% citric acid, orange oil and eucalyptus oil along with passive ultrasonic agitation. Volumetric analysis was performed using CBCT

The results of the present study demonstrated that none of the agents tested were able to remove the oil based CH completely even though used along with passive ultrasonic activation. However aqueous CH was almost completely removed by all the three solvents used along with passive ultrasonic irrigation.   The present study showed, citric acid to remove oil based CH better than orange oil and eucalyptus oil. Eucalyptus oil and orange oil were found to have comparable removal efficacy as that of 10% citric acid in removing both aqueous and oil based calcium hydroxide in this study. It is concluded that the efficacy of eucalyptus oil and orange oil were comparable with 10% citric acid in removing both aqueous and silicon oil based calcium hydroxide intra canal medicament. As 10% citric acid can produces dentinal erosion, orange oil and eucalyptus oil along with passive ultrasonic activations can be considered as an effective alternative to citric acid

Keywords: Citric acid, ultra calXs, vitapex, orange oil, eucalyptus oil, ultrasonics, CBCT, CH (calcium hydroxide)
