Assessment of Oxygen Expansion during Internal Bleaching with Enamel and Dentin: A Comparative In Vitro Study.
Internal bleaching is a conservative, non-invasive, and simple treatment that is frequently performed in daily clinical practice. The present in vitro study analyzes the oxygen expansion of different bleaching agents resulting from the oxidation reaction when interacting with enamel and dentin. Enamel and dentin were crushed separately until obtaining a fine powder with particles of an approximate size between 0.06 and 0.2 mm. Each enamel and dentin sample were mixed with 37% carbamide peroxide (CP 37%), 30% hydrogen peroxide (HP 30%), sodium perborate (SP) combined with HP 30% (HP 30% + SP) and SP with distilled water (SP). A total of 280 1 mm diameter glass tubes were used with 70 for eac…
Cellular Responses in Human Dental Pulp Stem Cells Treated with Three Endodontic Materials
Human dental pulp stem cells (HDPSCs) are of special relevance in future regenerative dental therapies. Characterizing cytotoxicity and genotoxicity produced by endodontic materials is required to evaluate the potential for regeneration of injured tissues in future strategies combining regenerative and root canal therapies. This study explores the cytotoxicity and genotoxicity mediated by oxidative stress of three endodontic materials that are widely used on HDPSCs: a mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA-Angelus white), an epoxy resin sealant (AH-Plus cement), and an MTA-based cement sealer (MTA-Fillapex). Cell viability and cell death rate were assessed by flow cytometry. Oxidative stress was m…
Comparative study of the radiopacity of resin cements used in aesthetic dentistry
PURPOSE. The aim of this study was to compare the radiopacity of 6 modern resin cements with that of human enamel and dentine using the Digora digital radiography system, to verify whether they meet the requirements of ANSI/ADA specification no. 27/1993 and the ISO 4049/2000 standard and assess whether their radiopacity is influenced by the thickness of the cement employed. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Three 3-thickness samples (0.5, 1 and 1.5 mm) were fabricated for each material. The individual cement samples were radiographed on the CCD sensor next to the aluminium wedge and the tooth samples. Five radiographs were made of each sample and therefore five readings of radiographic density were ta…
Compatibilidad dimensional entre los conos accesorios de gutapercha y los espaciadores
Objetivo: evaluar la compatibilidad dimensional entre los conos de gutapercha y los espaciadores. Material y metodo: se seleccionaron aleatoriamente conos de gutapercha y espaciadores de diferentes tamanos y fabricantes (Dentsply-DeTrey, DEntsply-Maillefer y Boston Dental Scientific). Se conformaron 26 grupos (n: 10). Cada una de las muestras se observo con un microscopio optico (50-100x), y se midio D1 y D2. Los resultados se sometieron a un analisis estadistico descriptivo. Resultados: de acuerdo con nuestro datos, existe variabilidad dimensional entre los conos de gutapercha de un mismo tamano, los espaciadores y las puntas de gutapercha y los espaciadores entre si, aunque las diferencia…
