Abstract

One of the most critical elements in endodontic treatment is proper isolation of the operating field. Isolation is very important for controlling moisture, retracting tissues and to prevent any harm to the tissues. One of the primary goals of endodontic treatment is to eliminate a hospitable place for microorganisms to grow. Sterile technique should be used throughout the procedures to avoid introducing any new microbes into the patient. Attention to proper technique also protects the entire staff from receiving pathogens from the patient.
