Penetration depth of irrigants into root dentine after sonic, ultrasonic and photoacoustic activation

Abstract

Greater penetration depths occurred in the apical thirds for ultrasonic, sonic and laser-induced activation compared to manual dynamic activation. PIPS was associated with deeper penetration of irrigants. The novel SWEEPS mode did not increase irrigant penetration.
