Evaluation of different pH levels of calcium hydroxide on Enterococcus faecalis: an in vitro study

The aim of the study was to determine the effective pH of calcium hydroxide Ca(OH)2 against <em>Enterococcus faecalis</em>, the most frequently isolated bacterial species in endodontic failure. Solutions of Ca(OH)2 with different pH values of 9, 11 and 12.5 were prepared by dissolving 1...
