Study of physico-chemical properties of various concentrations of self developed root canal lubricant

The chelating efficiency, cleaning & shaping of root canal goes on increasing as percentage of EDTA increases i.e. solid content increases. Efficiency of lubrication was also found to be better in highly concentrated formulation. B. F. Viscosity of the formulations is always kept similar by adjusting quantity of rheology modifier in order to get good handling characteristics. From 5% aqueous solution stability, it is observed that gel is highly stable.
