Aim: This study was conducted to assess the effect of different variables on antibacterial potential of photo-activated disinfection versus the effect of a chemical disinfection solution on carious dentin. Material and Methods: Seventy freshly extracted teeth were selected, All soft caries was removed by sterile excavator and specimens were weighted by five digit microbalance to be in range of 6-10 mg, Specimen divided into three groups: Group A1: disinfected with phot-activated disinfection (PAD) and divided into four subgroups(no=10 ) according to power& application time, Subgroup1(P1T1: delivery power was 100mW, application time was 120 sec) Subgroup2 (P1T2: delivery power was 50mW …
