| Abstract | ||
| Background: Chemo mechanical caries removal systems has been discussed as an alternative to conventional caries removal. This study assesses the efficacy of a chemo- mechanical caries removal technique in caries removal. Material and methods: Forty five decayed extracted human teeth were used in the present study. After initial opening through the enamel, different concentrations of the chemo-mechanical caries removal solution were placed in the cavity and excavation of the caries was performed. Results: After probing and visual inspection, with the use of the DIAGNOdent caries detecting device, and after histological examination, the concentrations of 0.5% and 0.7% were shown to be equally effective in removal of caries and more potent than the 0.2% concentration. Conclusion: 0.5 % concentration of the manufactured chemo- mechanical caries removal is the optimal concentration that can be used in dentinal caries removal. | ||
