Continuous infection and recontamination are a very important problem in root canal treatment. For this reason, to complete success. A key goal of root canal treatment is to remove microorganisms and tissue residues from infected root canals. Even though great progress has been made in the analysis of the root canal system, in light of contemporary research as opposed to past studies, indicates that the chemomechanical preparation process is unable to achieve complete cleaning and disinfection of the root canals due to their complex anatomical structure. Irrigation solutions are used in different varieties and for different purposes to dissolve the layer called smear and to reduce the bacterial population in infected root canals. The aim of this review is to summarize the literature informations and collective data about irrigation solutions used in endodontic treatments.
