Abstract
AbstractRoot canal irrigation is an important step in root canal preparation procedures and has a great impact on the success rate of root canal treatment. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is a new method to study root canal irrigation. It can be used to simulate and visualize the process of root canal irrigation, and quantitatively evaluate the effect of root canal irrigation through parameters such as flow velocity and wall shear stress. In recent years, researchers have conducted extensive studies on the factors that influence root canal irrigation efficiency, such as the position of the irrigation needle, the size of root canal preparation, the types of irrigation needles, and so on. This article reviewed the development of root canal irrigation research methods, the steps of CFD simulation in root canal irrigation, and the application of CFD in root canal irrigation in recent years. It aimed to provide new research ideas for the application of CFD to root canal irrigation and to provide a reference for the clinical application of CFD simulation results.
