Abstract
An in vivo evaluation of the penetration of the irrigant was accomplished using two techniques of cleaning and shaping: the B.U. technique and the Sonic technique.
Hypaque was used as the irrigating solution because of its similar physical properties to sodium hypochlorite.
The results of this study show that the irrigant can only be brought to the radiographic terminus with the help of hand instruments (K files mainly) even at the beginning of the procedure. This is called the “dynamics of irrigation”.
