NaOCl remains effective but has high cytotoxicity, whereas CHX and QMix offer alternatives with lower cytotoxicity. EDTA is effective in tissue dissolution but should be used cautiously due to cytotoxic potential. Clinicians should weigh the benefits and limitations of each solution for optimal treatment outcomes.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.4103\/jpbs.jpbs_276_24","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,6,13]],"date-time":"2024-06-13T06:02:22Z","timestamp":1718258542000},"page":"S2740-S2742","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1097\/lww.0000000000001000","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Comparative Analysis of Various Irrigation Solutions in Root Canal Treatment"],"prefix":"10.4103","volume":"16","author":[{"given":"Mubashir Baig","family":"Mirza","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Conservative Dental Science, College of Dentistry, Prince Sattam bin AbdulAziz University, AlKharj, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kirti","family":"Sharma","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Conservative Dentistry and Endodontics, Vyas Dental College Jodhpur, Rajasthan, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Chitharanjan","family":"Shetty","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Conservative Dentistry and Endodontics, A.B.
