Abstract

Endodontic disease is essentially a biofilm-mediated infection with broader bacterial diversity than previously anticipated. Removal of endodontic bacterial biofilms and preventing recontamination of root canal after treatment are the essential elements for successful outcomes of endodontic treatment. Nanoparticles and antibacterial photodynamic therapy corroborate to be emerging tools as they have proved to be effective in eradicating biofilms from the complex root canal system in various in-vitro studies. This article primarily aims to provide an exhaustive overview based on available literature on advanced treatment modalities to eradicate these biofilms.
