Description
Root canal treatment ends with rinsing the canal, and the rinse itself might soften the root. Alsayegh, Ayoubi, and Alsayed Tolibah compared four rinsing plans on sixty-four extracted human premolars, including a newer all-in-one solution called Triton, the standard bleach-based sequence, and water-only controls. Each root was then loaded in a press until it cracked.
Breaking strength ranged from about 298 newtons in the Triton group to about 365 in the plain-water group, but the spread between groups was not statistically clear. The crack patterns, mostly oblique breaks, also matched across groups. The authors conclude that the Triton protocol leaves roots about as strong as the common protocols do. In other words, choosing it for cleaning does not appear to cost the tooth fracture resistance.
