“…Studies on tooth staining conclude that all root canal sealers can stain dentin (87,88). Limited data are available on the staining ability of calcium hydroxide-containing root canal sealers, but two studies concluded moderate to minimal discoloration of coronal dentin with Sealapex (89,90).…”

“…Tooth discoloration induced by endodontic materials is a common problem for clinician and patients and may impair aesthetic appearance of endodontically treated teeth (1,2). After root canal treatment, teeth may discolour due to the incorporation of degradation products from haemorrhage, incomplete removal of pulpal remnants or the presence of filling materials and sealers after endodontic procedures (3).…”

“…After root canal treatment, teeth may discolour due to the incorporation of degradation products from haemorrhage, incomplete removal of pulpal remnants or the presence of filling materials and sealers after endodontic procedures (3). A progressive discoloration is suggested to be primarily a result of materials ingressing into dentinal tubules (1,2). However, it has been shown that a visible crown discoloration may not necessarily be associated with tubule penetration and may be caused by material remnants in the pulp chamber, which get darker over time and transmit through the hard tissues (4).…”

Evaluation of crown discoloration induced by endodontic sealers and colour change ratio determination after bleaching

The aim of this study was to evaluate tooth discoloration after the use of root canal sealers and the effect of internal bleaching on sealer discoloration. The crowns of 56 incisors were cut and randomly filled with four sealers (n = 14): Pulpispad, AH26, MTA Fillapex, EndoREZ. The colour measurement was taken with a spectrophotometer prior and after placement of sealers. Colour changes (ΔE) were recorded after 4 weeks then sealers were removed and an internal bleaching treatment was performed. After bleaching treatment colour changes (ΔE) were measured. Data were analysed using ANOVA and Tukey's test (α = 0.05). All tested sealers induced varying chromatic alterations. Pulpispad showed statistically more discoloration than other sealers (P < 0.05). After bleaching, EndoREZ showed statistically more bleaching ratio than MTA Fillapex and AH26 (P < 0.05). Internal bleaching was efficient in discoloured teeth induced by root canal sealers.

“…The discolouration of tooth structure caused by a number of restorative and endodontic materials has been examined using both subjective approaches (4–10) and objective methods (5,11,12). Subjective colour determination, which compares teeth with shade guides, is the most frequently applied colour analysis method in dentistry (13).…”

Tooth discolouration: Staining effects of various sealers and medicaments

et al. 2012

The aim of this investigation was to quantify the discolouration of tooth roots caused by various medicaments and sealers. The roots of extracted teeth were chemo-mechanically prepared and the smear layer removed. The roots were filled with either Multi-Cal (Pulpdent Corporation, Watertown, MA, USA), Ledermix (Lederle Laboratories, Wolfratshausen, Germany), 2% chlorhexadine acetate in polyethylene glycol (PEG), 5% clindamycin in PEG, PEG alone (as a vehicle control), sealers AH26 (De Trey Dentsply, Zurich, Switzerland), AH Plus (De Trey Dentsply), an experimental epoxy resin with zirconium dioxide (Millenium Chemicals, Rockingham, Western Australia) or Araldite (Selleys Pty Ltd, Sydney, Australia). The roots were maintained at 37°C in dark humid conditions and standardised images of the coronal surfaces recorded over 12 months. Ledermix caused the most darkening of the introduced medicaments, while calcium hydroxide and the materials in PEG did not cause darkening. AH26 caused more darkening than did the other sealers. It was concluded that the use of alternatives to Ledermix and AH26 should be considered when aesthetics are important.
