Bacterial leakage assessment in root canals sealed with AH Plus sealer modified with silver nanoparticles

Abstract Background Successful endodontic therapy requires prevention of bacterial leakage between the root canal filing and root-canal walls. Sealing quality of a root canal filling depends strongly on the sealing ability of the sealer used. The present study aimed to evaluate the bacterial leakage...
