Local Antibiotic Therapy In Endodontic Treatment

The document discussed the challenges of bacterial infections in the root canal system, which were significant in dental practice. Factors such as additional and lateral canals, dentin ultrastructure, and rich bacterial flora influenced the success of endodontic treatment. While current disinfectants used in root canal treatment had a broad spectrum of action, they were also highly toxic to human cells. The study presented experiences with using local intracanal antibiotic therapy to treat endodontic bacterial infections.
