  • Title: Ultrasonic disinfection of the root canal.
    Author: Martin H.
    Journal: Oral Surg Oral Med Oral Pathol; 1976 Jul; 42(1):92-9. PubMed ID: 821029.
    Abstract:
    The use of ultrasonics to increase the bactericidal efficiency of endodontic irrigation was tested on four microorganisms. Ultransonics alone had a reducing effect but coupling it with a biocidal agent led to a more efficient bactericidal synergism. A sonosynergistic system of cleaning and disinfecting the root canal system has been described.
