Neem (Azadirachta indica) has been investigated for its antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties in endodontic treatments. This review examines neem's efficacy against root canal pathogens, its potential as a herbal root canal irrigant, and its sy nergistic effects with conventional endodontic irrigants. Studies demonstrate neem's antimicrobial activity against E. faecalis, Candida albicans, and other endodontic pathogens, reducing bacterial load and biofilm formation. Clinical trials and in vitro studies highlight neem's potential as an adjunct to conventional endodontic treatments, enhancing treatment outcomes and patient comfort. This comprehensive overview underscores neem's therapeutic potential in endodontics, offering a natural, effective, and sustainable approach to root canal therapy. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
