Summary

The aim of the study is to perform a clinical and radiographic evaluation of 70% Ethanol Alcohol versus Normal Saline as root canal irrigating solutions in partial pulpectomy of primary molars with Metapex.

Conditions

Interventions

DRUG

70% Ethanol Alcohol

Ethanol, also called ethyl alcohol, grain alcohol, or alcohol, a member of a class of organic compounds that are given the general name alcohols. Ethanol is a commonly used fixative. Fixation of the inner layers of the tissue depends on the ability of the fixative to diffuse into the tissue. Moreover, Ethanol has antibacterial antifungal, and antiviral properties. 70% Ethanol is the safest concentration because the water that has been mixed into the ethanol slows the drying time, creating a longer contact time. Ethanol needs to have a contact time of at least 10 seconds to kill Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus pyogenes. At a 10 second drying time.
