The present study evaluated the effect of the insertion of the irrigation needle (max-i-probe, Smith and Nephew MPL, Franklin Park, IL) at two different depths on the removal of hard tissue debris. Mandibular molarswith isthmuses in the mesial root canalsystem weremicro-CT scanned at an isotropic resolution of 14.16 µm. Each tooth was randomly assigned to 2 experimental groups (n = 10) according to the depth of needle insertion during irrigation of the root canal system: 5 or 1 mm short of working length. All teeth were instrumented with the Reciproc system (VDW, Munich, Germany) and the very same irrigation protocol was used, differing only by the depth of needle insertion. Second micro-CT scans were performed after cleaning and shaping procedures and after that, the matched images, before and after preparation, were examined from the furcation level to the apex to volumetrically identify, measure and map the amount of accumulated hard-tissue debris. Mann-Whitney test was used to statistically compare the percentage volume of accumulated hard tissue debris between the irrigation groups. The result showed a significant influence of the depth of needle insertion on removal of debris (P < .05). A significant reduction in the percentage of hard tissue debris was observed when the needle was inserted up to 1 mm from the apex (P < .05). The depth of needle insertion has a significant influence on the final amount of the accumulated hard-tissue debris. It is fair to conclude that the nearest to the apex the irrigation needle is, the less is the final amount of hard-tissue debris generated.
