45 teeth will be sub-divided at random with a computerized method, according to the type irrigant and duration of its application into 3 groups (15 teeth in each group): Group1(control group): The teeth will be irrigated by 2 ml 1% NaOCl after each file. Group2: The teeth will be irrigated by 2 ml 1% NaOCl after each file then with 5 ml of 0.2% chitosan for one minute. Group 3: The teeth will be irrigated by 2 ml 1% NaOCl after each file then with 5 ml of 0.2% chitosan for 3 minutes.
