“…3,8 Mangala et al evaluated the biocompatibility of the Indian Portland cement Birla white in pellet forms. 17 Group II (MTA) and Group IV (WPC + Iodoform) showed similar tissue reactions, and there was no significant difference between them in all experimental periods. The previous study proved that PC + iodoform showed a similar inflammatory reaction when compared to MTA.…”

Aim:This study compared the tissue reaction of 80 wt% of White Portland cement (WPC) mixed with 20 wt% of three radiopacifying agents: Bismuth oxide/Iodoform/Zirconium oxide with MTA in rat subcutaneous connective tissue. Materials and methods:The study was performed in 18 albino rats by implanting the WPC mixed with radiopacifying agents loaded in a polyethylene tube. Empty tubes were used as a control. At the end of 7, 30 and 60 days excisional biopsy of the implant along with surrounding tissues was done and sent for histological examination.

“…The biocompatibility evaluation of endodontic sealers, are usually performed in the subcutaneous tissue of rats,[ 4 6 9 18 ] which are limited to histological aspects of tissue reactions induced by the material's components and studies on the expression of extracellular matrix proteins during tissue repair are scarce. In this repair process occurs the participation of two glycoproteins present in the extracellular matrix: Tenascin (TN) and fibronectin (FN).…”

Aims: The aim of this study was to evaluate the biocompatibility of resinous root canal sealers: Sealer 26, AH plus, and SK Seal Root Canal Sealer in the subcutaneous tissue of rats. Subjects and Methods: Twenty-four Wistar rats received polyethylene tubes containing the sealers and empty tubes as control ( n = 6). After 7, 15, 30, and 60 days, animals were killed and polyethylene tubes were removed with the surrounding tissues. The specimens were embedded in paraffin, processed for hematoxylin-eosin and immunohistochemistry assessed for fibronectin (FN) and tenascin (TN). Statistical Analysis Used: Data were tabulated and analyzed via Kruskal–Wallis and Dunn's test ( P < 0.05). Results: All groups induced a moderate inflammatory reaction after 7 and 15 days ( P > 0.05); after 30 days, a mild inflammatory infiltrate was observed in control groups, and moderate in sealers groups ( P > 0.05); all groups showed mild inflammatory infiltrate at 60 days ( P > 0.05). Overall, the fibrous capsule was considered thick only on the 7 th day and became thin over time. All groups had expression for FN and TN in all analyzed periods, with high immunolabeling in sealers groups when comparing with the control group ( P < 0.05). Conclusion: All sealers demonstrated biocompatibility and induced FN and TN expression.

“…7 It is a hydrophilic cement that can set in the presence of water. 8 There are several studies that have demonstrated its excellent sealing ability. However, the MTA has certain drawbacks, i.e., presence of toxic elements, difficulty in handling, long setting time, and high material cost.…”

AimThe purpose of this present study is to compare the ability of MTA and Portland cement to seal furcal perforations in extracted primary molars using the dye extraction leakage model.Materials and methodsSixty primary molars were selected and randomly divided into four groups after access openings and furcal perforations were created in the pulp chamber floor. Group I (n = 20) in which perforations were repaired with MTA (ProRoot MTA, MTA-Angelus), group II (n = 20) in which perforations were repaired with the Portland cement, group III (n = 10) in which perforations were left unsealed (positive control), and group IV (n = 10) without perforations (negative control). All samples were subjected to 1% of basic fuchsin dye challenge followed by dye extraction with 65 wt% of nitric acid. Samples were analyzed using the automatic microplate spectrophotometer 545 nm and the readings were statistically analyzed.ResultsThere was no statistically significant difference in the microleakage between MTA and Portland cement repair groups.ConclusionPortland cement provides an effective seal for primary teeth furcal perforations and can be considered a more economic substitute for MTA as a repair material enhancing the prognosis of perforated primary teeth that would otherwise be extracted.How to cite this articleReddy NV, Srujana P, et al.
