Abstract
Dilution of 5.25% sodium hypochlorite before its use as an endodontic irrigant has been recommended. The effect of dilution on the solvent action of sodium hypochlorite was investigated in vitro. Under controlled conditions, necrotic tissue specimens were exposed to various concentrations of sodium hypochlorite and the percent of tissue weight change was determined. Statistical analysis indicated that dilution of 5.25% sodium hypochlorite resulted in a significant decrease in the ability to dissolve necrotic tissue.
