Abstract

A descriptive, comparative study was conducted in the Department of Conservative Dentistry and Endodontics, Dhaka Dental College Hospital, Bangladesh, from December 2014 to November 2015, to evaluate the effectiveness of calcium hydroxide as a root canal sealer constituent. A total of 60 patients were selected by purposive sampling technique. Patients were divided into two equal groups of 30: group-I had zinc-oxide eugenol [ZOE] cement as a root canal sealer, while group-II had calcium hydroxideor sealapex [Ca(OH)2] cement as a root canal sealer. Total number of teeth treated by single-visit root canal therapy. Out of 60 patients, 37(61.7%) patients were male. In ZOE group, the highest incidence was in age group 21-30 years, where as in Ca(OH)2 group, it was in 11-20 years. The mean age of the patients was 27.62±6.20 years in ZOE group and 25.0±6.14 years in Ca(OH)2 group. 21(70.0%) mentioned trauma as an etiological factor followed by caries 4(13.33%) in ZOE group, while 18(60.0%) patients mentioned trauma followed by caries 6(20.0%) in Ca(OH)2 group. In ZOE group, the incidence of pain was 23(76.67%), and in Ca(OH)2 group, 22(73.33%) reported pain. Periapical radiolucency follow-up findings were significantly better at 3-month and 6-month follow-ups in the Ca(OH)2 group. The difference inthe final outcome of effectiveness in both ZOE and Ca(OH)2 group in the management of periradicular pathosis was statistically not significant (P>0.05). The present study findings revealed that single-visit root canal therapy was equally effective in the management of endodontically involved teeth with periradicular pathosis. After 12 months, in follow-up with post-operative clinical and radiological evaluations, Ca(OH)2 sealer group showed better results than ZOE sealer group. However, in shorter follow-ups, Ca(OH)2 sealer group showed significantly better findings as compared to ZOE sealer groups. CBMJ 2023 July: vol. 12 no. 02 P: 141-149

氢氧化钙作为根管封闭剂的有效性评价

2014年12月至2015年11月，在孟加拉国达卡牙科学院医院保守牙科和牙髓科进行了一项描述性比较研究，以评估氢氧化钙作为根管密封剂成分的有效性。采用目的抽样法，共选取60例患者。将患者分为两组，每组30人:i组使用氧化锌丁香酚[ZOE]骨水泥作为根管密封剂，ii组使用氢氧化钙或sealapex [Ca(OH)2]骨水泥作为根管密封剂。接受单次根管治疗的牙齿总数。60例患者中，男性37例(61.7%)。ZOE组发病率最高的年龄段为21 ~ 30岁，Ca(OH)2组发病率最高的年龄段为11 ~ 20岁。ZOE组患者平均年龄27.62±6.20岁，Ca(OH)2组患者平均年龄25.0±6.14岁。ZOE组有21例(70.0%)提到外伤，其次是龋齿4例(13.33%)，Ca(OH)2组有18例(60.0%)提到外伤，其次是龋齿6例(20.0%)。ZOE组疼痛发生率23例(76.67%)，Ca(OH)2组疼痛发生率22例(73.33%)。Ca(OH)2组根尖周放射率随访3个月和6个月的结果明显更好。ZOE组与Ca(OH)2组治疗神经根周围病变的最终疗效比较，差异无统计学意义(P < 0.05)。本研究结果显示，单次根管治疗对根周病牙根管受累的牙齿同样有效。术后12个月随访临床及影像学评价，Ca(OH)2封口剂组疗效优于ZOE封口剂组。然而，在较短的随访中，Ca(OH)2封口剂组比ZOE封口剂组表现出明显更好的结果。《中华医学杂志》2023年7月12期[02:41 . 49
