Aim: To evaluate the histological pulp response to three direct pulp capping agents (Propolis, Mineral Trioxide Aggregate and Calcium Enriched Mixture) in primary molars. Study design: Comparative study Place and duration of study: Pediatric Dentistry department and Oral Pathology department at de’Montmorency College of Dentistry, Lahore from 1st May 2016 to 31st December 2016. Methodology: Fifty-seven human vital primary first molars were selected from patients aged 8 years. They were divided into three groups of nineteen each. Propolis, mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) and calcium enriched mixture (CEM) were used as direct pulp capping (DPC) agents in primary molars. After pinpoint exposure, the teeth were directly pulp capped with above mentioned materials. Teeth were extracted after fifteen days for histological examination of inflammatory pulpal cell response. Results: In Propolis group (15 days duration), 15 teeth (78.9%) were in grade 1inflammation, 1 tooth (5%) was in grade 2 inflammation and 3 teeth (15.7%) were in grade 3 inflammation. In Mineral Trioxide Aggregate group 14 teeth (73.7%) were in grade 1 inflammation, 3 teeth (15.7%) were in grade 2 inflammation and 2 teeth (10.5%) were in grade 3 inflammation. In Calcium Enriched Mixture group 15 teeth (78.9%) were in grade 1 inflammation, 3 teeth (15.7%) were in grade 2 inflammation and 1 tooth (5.3%) were in grade 3 inflammation. Conclusion: The effects of Propolis, Mineral Trioxide Aggregate (MTA) and Calcium Enriched Mixture (CEM) on pulpal tissue are comparable to each other. Propolis is a cheaper material as compared to other direct pulp capping agents and easily available. Therefore, it may be used as an alternative pulp capping agent however, further investigation is required to analyze human pulpal response. Keywords: Direct pulp capping.

Nano hydroxyapatite (Nano-HA) and Mineral Trioxide Aggregate (MTA) because of its better qualities can be used as an alternative to calcium hydroxide in direct pulp capping procedures. The aim of the study was to compare the response of exposed human pulp to Nano-HA, Mineral Trioxide Aggregate and calcium hydroxide. Study design: The study was done on 30 premolars, ranging from patients between 11-15 years. Intentional pulp capping was done using one of the experimental materials. The extracted teeth were then subjected to staining procedure and evaluated for dentin bridge and pulpal response after 15 and 30 days. Intragroup comparisons of the observed values were analyzed using Chi-square test. Results: Nano-HA and MTA produced continuous dentin bridges. Dentin bridge that was formed in MTA group had regular pattern of dentinal tubules but no tubules were seen in the nano-HA group. Dentin bridge was not observed in Dycal group for the 15 days period in majority of the sample and by 30 days dentin bridge was observed that were both continuous and interrupted in equal number of samples. The initial inflammatory response and necrosis was more with Nano-HA and calcium hydroxide which reduced with time. Conclusion: MTA showed no inflammatory changes in majority of the samples in both the study periods. Necrosis was least observed in MTA group followed by Nano-HA. Vascularity increased in Nano-HA group in the initial periods which reduced with increasing time. Based on the ability of nano-HA to produce complete dentinal bridges, favorable cellular and vascular response, the material could be considered as an substitute and could be tried used as a direct pulp capping agent.

The objective of this study was to measure temperature changes in the pulp chamber induced by polymerization of resin-based dental restoratives following a simulated procedure of direct pulp capping. Class I cavities with a microperforation at the pulp horn were prepared in extracted human molar teeth. The complete procedure of direct pulp capping and cavity restoration was performed with the root part of extracted teeth fixed in a water bath at 37 ?C. Mineral trioxide aggregate, bioactive dentin substitute or calcium-hydroxide paste were used as pulp capping materials. Cavities were restored with a light-cured or chemically-cured resin-modified glass ionomer, universal adhesive and a bulk-fill composite, cured with a high-intensity LED unit. Pulp capping materials caused a slight temperature decrease. Lower temperature increase was recorded during light-curing of the glass ionomer liner after direct capping with mineral trioxide aggregate and calcium-hydroxide than that recorded for the bioactive dentin substitute. Adhesive light-curing increased temperature in all groups with higher mean temperatures in groups with chemically-cured as compared to those for the light-cured glass ionomer liner. Direct pulp capping with mineral trioxide aggregate or calcium-hydroxide followed by the light-cured resin-modified glass ionomer liner and a bonded bulk-fill composite restoration induced temperature changes below the potentially adverse threshold of 42.5?C.

Reparative Dentin

Nowadays, the preservation of dental pulp vitality is an integral part of our daily therapies. The success of these treatments depends on the clinical situation as well as the biomaterials used. Mineral Trioxide aggregate and BiodentineTM are commonly used as pulp capping materials. One objective of vital pulp therapy is the repair/regeneration of the pulp. In addition to the initial inflammatory status of the pulp, the nature and quality of the new mineralized tissue obtained after pulp capping directly influence the success of the treatment. In order to characterize the reparative dentin, in the current study, the chemical composition and microstructure of the dentin bridge after direct pulp capping using Biodentine™ and mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) was studied by using Raman microspectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy, respectively. The results showed that the reparative dentin bridge observed in both groups presented dentin tubules and chemical composition similar to primary dentin. With the limitations of this study, the calcium-silicate-based cements used as pulp capping materials provide an optimal environment for pulp healing, resulting in a reparative dentin resembling on certain points of the primary dentin and the regeneration of the pulp.
