In vitro effect of XP ‑Endo finisher on the amount of residual debris and smear layer on the root canal walls

Conclusion: Use of XP ‑Endo finisher has no superiority to the standard protocol for the use ofirrigating solutions (EDTA + NaOCl) for debris and smear layer removal, but in some cases, suchas second appointment of regeneration treatment we cannot use NaOCl because of its destructiveeffects on stem cells; thus, we can benefit from the synergistic effects of XPF and EDTA for bettersmear layer removal.Key Words: Debris, root canal, smear layer
