Introduction
Every root canal system has spaces
that

cleaned
mechanichally .
The only way to clean webs, fins and
anastomoses is through effective use
of irrigation solution.

Mechanism of action
Sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) ionizes in water into
Na and the hypochlorite ion, OCl, establishing an
equilibrium with hypochlorous acid (HOCl).
Hypochlorous acid is responsible for the
antibacterial activity; the OCl ion is less effective
than the undissolved HOCl.
Hypochloric acid disrupts several vital functions of
the microbial cell, resulting in cell death.

2) Antibactrial effect ( kill most significant bacterial

3) It is biocompatible .
4) The high binding affinity of doxycycline present in
