The teeth were randomly divided into 9 groups of 10 teeth each according to the solution and time intervals involved (ie, 3, 10, and 15 minutes). The Ca(++) concentration of the solution was determined by using atomic absorption spectroscopy.<h4>Results</h4>At 3 minutes, there was no significant difference between Ca(++) extraction by 10% citric acid and 17% EDTA (P >.05). EDTA-T had the least efficacy for Ca(++) extraction (P <.05). At 10 minutes and 15 minutes, there were no significant differences between 10% citric acid and 17% EDTA or between EDTA-T and 17% EDTA (P >.05). However, 10% citric acid was significantly better than EDTA-T in terms of Ca(++) extraction (P <.05).<h4>Conclusion</h4>Both 10% citric acid and 17% EDTA are good decalcifying agents when the step-back technique is used.","is_dataset_classified":null,"base_score":4.564348191467836,"endowment":4.564348191467836,"datacite_reuse_total":0,"file_count":0,"downloads":0,"views":0,"has_version_chain":false,"is_dataset":false,"is_oa":false,"pmid":"12582366","pmcid":null,"openalex_id":"https://openalex.org/W2079256315","authors":[],"funders":[],"total_grants":0,"fwci":5.0304,"citation_percentile":0.9439521,"influential_citations":0,"citation_trend":[{"year":2012,"count":9},{"year":2013,"count":2},{"year":2014,"count":2},{"year":2015,"count":4},{"year":2016,"count":6},{"year":2017,"count":6},{"year":2018,"count":1},{"year":2019,"count":5},{"year":2020,"count":3},{"year":2021,"count":1},{"year":2022,"count":3},{"year":2023,"count":3},{"year":2024,"count":6},{"year":2025,"count":3},{"year":2026,"count":2}],"oa_status":"closed","license":"https://www.elsevier.com/tdm/userlicense/1.0/","oa_locations":[{"url":"https://api.elsevier.com/content/article/PII:S1079210402916896?httpAccept=text/xml","host_type":"publisher"},{"url":"https://api.elsevier.com/content/article/PII:S1079210402916896?httpAccept=text/plain","host_type":"publisher"},{"url":"https://doi.org/10.1067/moe.2003.89","host_type":"journal"},{"url":"https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/12582366","host_type":"repository"}],"fields_of_study":["Endodontics and Root Canal Treatments","Dental Erosion and Treatment","Dental Anxiety and Anesthesia Techniques"],"mesh_terms":["Chelating Agents","Cuspid","Decalcification Technique","Dentin","Edetic Acid","Humans","Polyethylene Glycols","Smear Layer","Root Canal Preparation","Citric Acid"],"keywords":["Citric acid","Chelation","Extraction (chemistry)","Chemistry","Smear layer","Nuclear chemistry","Root canal","Dentin","Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid","Edetic Acid","Atomic absorption spectroscopy","Bone decalcification","Sodium","Sulfate","Chromatography","Dentistry","Biochemistry","Inorganic chemistry","Medicine"],"sdg_mappings":[{"sdg_number":0,"sdg_label":"Clean water and sanitation"}],"linked_datasets":[],"clinical_trials":[],"software_tools":[],"database_accessions":[],"source":"live","citation_network_status":"fetched"},"created_at":"2026-08-18T16:10:33.372827Z","pmid":null,"pmcid":null,"fwci":null,"citation_percentile":null,"influential_citations":0,"oa_status":null,"license":null,"views":0,"total_file_size_bytes":0,"version_count":0,"fair_f":null,"fair_a":null,"fair_i":null,"fair_r":null,"fair_zscore":null,"fair_rationale":null,"fair_model":null,"fair_agent_version":null,"fair_fulltext_source":null,"fair_has_llm":null,"fair_computed_at":null,"clinical_trials":[],"software_tools":[],"db_accessions":[],"linked_datasets":[],"topics":[]}
