Dentinal tubule penetration of AH Plus, iRoot SP, MTA fillapex, and guttaflow bioseal root canal sealers after different final irrigation procedures: A confocal microscopic study

Varied physical and chemical characteristic of root canal sealers and different irrigant agitation systems can influence the depth of penetration. The aim of this in vitro study was to use a laser scanning confocal microscope in order to assess the dentinal tubules penetration of various sealers after the application of different final irrigation techniques.
