MTA versus Portland cement: review of literature

Introduction: Both Mineral Trioxide Aggregate (MTA) and Portland cement (PC) have been highlighted because of their favorable biological properties, with extensive applications in Endodontics, including the possibility of using into root canal filling. Objective: This article reviews literature related to MTA and PC comparing their physical, chemical and biological properties, as well as their indications. Literature review: Literature reports studies revealing the similarities between these materials’ properties, including both biocompatibility and bone repair induction. Moreover, there is the need for the development of a root canal sealer based on these materials (MTA and PC). Conclusion: MTA and CP show promissory perspective both in Dentistry and Endodontics.

Ozônioterapia no controle da infecção em cirurgia oral

The objective of the literature review showing their main biological properties involved in the tissue repair process and its therapeutic potential in the prevention , control and treatment of infection in oral surgeries . To carry out this study , a search of the PubMed database . 13 articles that met the inclusion criteria were found . Antimicrobial properties , antiálgicas , anti-inflammatory , imunu - stimulants , oxygenation and neoangiogenesis were attributed to ozone in several studies . And indications such as the treatment of alveolitis , osteomyelitis , osteonecrosis , wound healing in skin and mucosa and antisepsis been suggested. However , many of its effects have not been well understood. The doses and concentrations for their use are not standardized . Studies to establish doses and periods of administration are still needed for increasingly traumatic and biologically effective therapies are found to practice dentistry .

Avaliação microscópica da propriedade biológica e da biocompatibilidade do osso composto e do osso integral de origem bovina

The aim of this study was to evaluate the biological properties and biocompatibility of bovine non-demineralized lyophilized and composite bones implanted in tibiae bone cavities and at the subcutaneous level. Twenty-four rats were used and sacrificed 15 and 45 days later. At the subcutaneous level, after 15 days an inflammatory reaction was seen around biomaterial particles with the presence of giant cells and at 45 days fibrous connective tissue had also developed. No signs of ectopic bone formation were observed at tibiae regions; more bone neoformation was observed at the control group (15 days) with 42.8% of the outer cortex layer against 22.6% at Orthogen and 25% at GenMix groups. At 45 days, correspondent values for bone neoformation were 62.5% at control, 26% at Orthogen, and 35% at GenMix groups, respectively. It can be concluded that both materials tested were biocompatible aiming to bone neoformation by their osteoconductive properties with no ectopic formation sites observed.
