UNASSIGNED: Sixty caries-free maxillary first premolar teeth which were scheduled for orthodontic extraction were selected for the study and were divided equally into Group 1 (Theracal LC) and Group 2 (Biodentine). Thermal and electric pulp testing was performed on the teeth to assess pulp vitality followed by tooth preparation to expose pulp horns under local anesthesia. After achieving hemostasis, the direct pulp capping agent was placed and composite restoration was done. All the teeth were evaluated and compared in terms of clinical and histological findings after 6 weeks. The statistical analysis used was the Kruskal-Wallis test.
UNASSIGNED: Teeth with Theracal LC showed no sensitivity to heat, cold, or percussion, whereas sensitivity to heat, cold, or percussion was noted with Biodentine. Histological evaluation revealed that TheraCal LC has higher efficiency in complete dentin bridge formation, had maximum dentin thickness, and showed minimal or no pulpal disorganization and pulpal inflammation as compared to Biodentine.
UNASSIGNED: TheraCal LC proves to be a promising future as a direct pulp capping agent.
■选择计划进行正畸拔除的60颗无龋齿的上颌第一前磨牙进行研究,并将其平均分为第1组(TheracalLC)和第2组(Biodentine)。对牙齿进行热和电牙髓测试以评估牙髓活力,然后进行牙齿准备以在局部麻醉下暴露牙髓角。止血后,放置直接盖浆剂并进行复合修复。6周后对所有牙齿进行临床和组织学评估和比较。使用的统计分析是Kruskal-Wallis检验。
■使用TheracalLC的牙齿对热没有敏感性,冷,或者打击乐器,而对热敏感,冷,或者用Biodentine进行打击乐。组织学评估显示TheraCalLC在完全牙本质桥形成中具有更高的效率,有最大的牙本质厚度,与Biodentine相比,显示出极少或没有牙髓紊乱和牙髓炎症。
■TheraCalLC被证明是作为直接纸浆封端剂的有希望的未来。
