Background: Smear layer is a debris consisting of organ ie and inorganic particles of calcified tissue, necrotic tissue, pulp tissue, and dentinoblast and microorganism processes th at can close the entrance to the dentin tubuli. Smear layer, will not only inhibit the penetration of disinfectiori materials and sealas to the dentin tubuli, but will also reduce the attachment of root canai filling material so that root canal irrigation solution is needed to dissolve the smear layer. Red betel leaf (Piper crocatum) infusion, on the other hand, contains saponin characterized as "surfactants" whicn can dissolve smear layer. Nevertheless, the effective concentration oh the red betel leaf infusion has still not been known clearly. Purpose: This study is aimed to determine the effective concentration of the red betel leaf infusion for cleaning root canal walls from smear layer. Methods: Fiveteen extracted human teeth with straight single roots were randomized into 5 groups (n=3). The specimens were then shaped by using rotary inst ruments up 10 a sire of 25/07. During instrumentation, each canaI was irrigated with 10, 20, 30 and, 40% red betelleaf infusion for treatment groups, while another was irrigated with aquadest for the control group. Root canai cleanliness was observed by using scanning electron microscope (SEM).
Results: There were significant differences among treatment groups (p0.05). Conclusion: It can be concluded that red betelleaf infusion with a concentration of 30% is effective for cleaning the root canal walls from the smear layer.
Key words: Red beiel leaf infusion (Pipa crocatum}, smear layer, saponin, surfactant
