ABSTRACT
This in vitro study evaluated, using a bacterial leakage model, whether intracanal medication with calcium hydroxide [Ca(OH)2]-based pastes prepared with different vehicles, has inhibitory effect on corono-apical leakage of bacteria. Forty instrumented human canines were dressed with Ca(OH)2 p.a. associated with G1= distilled water; G2= polyethylene glycol (PG); G3= PG + CMCP; and G4= glycerin. Five teeth with intact crowns served as negative controls and 5 instrumented teeth without temporary dressing served as positive controls. All teeth were mounted in a 2-chamber apparatus and then exposed to human saliva for 63 days. Leakage was recorded when turbidity was observed in the lower chamber. Fifty percent of the samples of G1 and G2, 10 percent of G3 and 80 percent of G4 were fully contaminated after 9 weeks. Statistically significant differences were observed with paired comparisons G3 and G4 (p=0.0069), with G3 achieving better seal against bacterial leakage than G4.
RESUMO
Este estudo in vitro avaliou, por um modelo de infiltração bacteriano, se a medicação intracanal com hidróxido de cálcio associado a diferentes veículos, tem efeito inibitório na penetração coronária de bactéria. Quarenta caninos humanos instrumentados foram medicados com Ca(OH)2 p.a. associados à G1= água destilada; G2= polietilenoglicol (PG); G3= polietilenoglicol e paramonoclorofenol canforado (PMCP); e G4= glicerina. Cinco dentes hígidos foram utilizados como grupo controle negativo e cinco dentes instrumentados sem medicação intracanal serviram como grupo controle positivo. Todos os dentes foram montados em um aparato de duas câmaras e expostos a saliva humana por 63 dias. A infiltração foi verificada através da observação do turvamento do meio de cultura na câmara inferior. Cinqüenta por cento das amostras do G1 e G2, 10 por cento do G3 e 80 por cento do G4 foram totalmente contaminadas após 9 semanas. Diferenças estatisticamente significantes foram observadas quando foram realizadas comparações pareadas entre G3 e G4 (p=0,0069), com G3 alcançando um melhor selamento contra infiltração bacteriana do que G4.
