The aim of this study was to evaluate the compressive strength and setting time of MTA and Portland cement (PC) associated with bismuth oxide (BO), zirconium oxide (ZO), calcium tungstate (CT), and strontium carbonate (SC). Methods. For the compressive strength test, specimens were evaluated in an EMIC DL 2000 apparatus at 0.5 mm/min speed. For evaluation of setting time, each material was analyzed using Gilmore-type needles. The statistical analysis was performed with ANOVA and the Tukey tests, at 5% significance. Results. After 24 hours, the highest values were found for PC and PC + ZO. At 21 days, PC + BO showed the lowest compressive strength among all the groups. The initial setting time was greater for PC. The final setting time was greater for PC and PC + CT, and MTA had the lowest among the evaluated materials (< 0.05). Conclusion. The results showed that all radiopacifying agents tested may potentially be used in association with PC to replace BO.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the antimicrobial activity and pH changes induced by Portland cement (PC) alone and in association with radiopacifiers. Methods. The materials tested were pure PC, PC + bismuth oxide, PC + zirconium oxide, PC + calcium tungstate, and zinc oxide and eugenol cement (ZOE). Antimicrobial activity was evaluated by agar diffusion test using the following strains: Micrococcus luteus, Streptococcus mutans, Enterococcus faecalis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Candida albicans. After 24 hours of incubation at 37°C, inhibition of bacterial growth was observed and measured. For pH analysis, material samples (n=10) were placed in polyethylene tubes and immersed in 10 mL of distilled water. After 12, 24, 48, and 72 hours, the pH of the solutions was determined using a pH meter. Results. All microbial species were inhibited by the cements evaluated. All materials composed of PC with radiopacifying agents promoted pH increase similar to pure Portland cement. ZOE had the lowest pH values throughout all experimental periods. Conclusions. All Portland cement-based materials with the addition of different radiopacifiers (bismuth oxide, calcium tungstate, and zirconium oxide) presented antimicrobial activity and pH similar to pure Portland cement.

O tratamento de dentes permanentes imaturos com comprometimento pulpar pode ser muitas vezes um desafio. Em dentes com a polpa vital, a manutenção da vitalidade pulpar é essencial, o que permitirá a continuação do desenvolvimento natural da porção radicular do elemento dentário. Já em dentes onde a polpa se encontre necrosada e/ ou infetada, há, inevitavelmente, a interrupção do desenvolvimento radicular, deixando o elemento dentário com paredes dentinárias finas e com o ápice aberto, o que torna o tratamento ainda mais desafiante, uma vez que o tratamento endodôntico convencional, baseado na preparação químico-mecânica e no preenchimento do sistema de canais radiculares com um material bioinerte, torna-se difícil ou até impossível. Atualmente, os tratamentos mais realizados para estes dentes passam pela apexificação com Hidróxido de cálcio (Ca(OH)2), ou a inserção de uma barreira apical de Agregado de Mineral Trióxido (MTA) seguidas pela obturação convencional do canal radicular. Ambas as técnicas têm um bom potencial na resolução das infeções e no encerramento apical; no entanto, não permitem a continuação do desenvolvimento radicular, o que mantém as paredes dentinárias finas e frágeis e o elemento dentário mais susceptível a fraturas. Estudos recentes têm vindo a demonstrar resultados positivos com uma nova abordagem de base biológica denominada revascularização pulpar. A técnica baseia-se na desinfeção do canal radicular e uma subsequente indução da formação de um coágulo sanguíneo no interior no canal, que servirá de base para a proliferação de um novo tecido, e uma possível regeneração do tecido pulpar. Desta forma pode-se alcançar além da resolução das infeções, a continuação do desenvolvimento radicular, o que resulta em raízes mais longas, com paredes mais espessas e no fecho apical normal. Embora a revascularização pulpar tenha vindo a demonstrar bons resultados clínicos e radiográficos, estudos histológicos demonstraram que o tecido formado no espaço pulpar pode não ser exatamente polpa. Mais estudos parecem ser necessários para que a técnica possa vir a ser executada com uma maior previsibilidade. A engenharia tecidular tem vindo a estudar diversas possibilidades para aprimorar a técnica, o que pode torná-la mais previsível no futuro.

The present study evaluated the radiopacity and flow of different endodontic sealers: AH Plus, Endo CPM, MTA Fillapex, Sealapex, Epiphany, and Epiphany SE. For the radiopacity test, six specimens measuring 10mm in diameter and 1mm in thickness were fabricated from each material. They were radiographed on an occlusal film alongside an aluminum step wedge. Radiographs were digitized to determine the radiopacity equivalence in millimeters of aluminum. To evaluate the flow, a 120 g load was placed on top of a glass slab containing 0.05 } 0.005ml of sealer. The diameters of each material were measured (mm) with a caliper and samples were photographed. Digitized images were analyzed using the UTHSCSA Image Tool for Windows software, to determine the sealer area (mm2). Data were submitted to ANOVA and Tukey's test at 5% significance. AH Plus and Epiphany SE presented the greatest radiopacity (12.5 mm Al and 12.0 mm Al, respectively) (p>0.05), followed by Epiphany (9.6 mm Al) and Fillapex (8.9 mm Al). Endo CPM (5.46 mm Al) and Sealapex (5.51 mm Al) presented lower radiopacity. MTA Fillapex presented significantly higher values of flow than other sealers (33.11 mm and 844.9 mm2). AH Plus, Epiphany, and Epiphany SE had similar values. Endo CPM (21.05 mm and 342.8 mm2) and Sealapex (19.98 mm and 352.5 mm2) presented the lowest flow values (p>0.05). All sealers presented radiopacity and flow values according to ISO and ANSI/ADA recommendations.

Recently, regular and white mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) are being used in Dentistry as retrofilling materials. Genotoxicity and cytotoxicity tests form an important part of cancer research and risk assessment of potential carcinogens. Thus, the goal of this study was to examine the genotoxicity and cytotoxicity of regular and white MTA in vitro by the single cell gel (comet) assay and trypan blue exclusion test, respectively. Mouse lymphoma cells were exposed to two presentation forms of MTA at final concentrations ranging from 1 to 1,000 μg/mL for 3 h at 37°C. The results showed that both compounds tested did not produce genotoxic effects at all concentrations evaluated. Likewise, no statistically significant differences (p > 0.05) were observed in cytotoxicity. Taken together, our results suggest that regular and white MTA are not genotoxins and are not able to interfere in cellular viability as assessed by single cell gel (comet) assay and trypan blue assay, respectively.
