Effect of Vehicles and Irrigation Solutions and Methods on Removal of Double Antibiotic Paste from Root Canals: Insights from High-performance Liquid Chromatography Analysis. J Endod 2024:S0099-2399(24)00344-3. [PMID: 38851482 DOI: 10.1016/j.joen.2024.06.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/23/2023] [Revised: 05/19/2024] [Accepted: 06/02/2024] [Indexed: 06/10/2024]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION In regenerative endodontics, eradicating antibiotic residues from root canals is imperative, given their detrimental effects on human apical papilla stem cells. Previous antibiotic removal studies lacked precision in identifying types and quantities of residual antibiotics. High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) enhances sensitivity and specificity, enabling accurate detection and quantification of residual drugs. Using HPLC analysis, this study explored the influence of vehicles and irrigation solutions and methods on double antibiotic paste (DAP) removal from root canals. METHODS Two DAP formulations, each containing 5 mg/mL ciprofloxacin and metronidazole, were created using distinct vehicles: macrogol and propylene glycol (MP) or hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC). Subsequently, 5 μL of DAP was applied to 200 simulated immature teeth with open apices (n = 100 per formulation) and cultured for 28 days at 37°C. Samples were then divided into 11 groups (n = 20 per group), and canals were irrigated with 17% ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid or 10% citric acid, employing a positive pressure syringe or passive ultrasonic irrigation. The irrigation solution and dentin sample from each tooth were evaluated via HPLC for ciprofloxacin and metronidazole quantification. RESULTS Citric acid exhibited significantly superior efficacy in antibiotic removal from root canals, with no observable effect of irrigation methods on drug removal. The HPMC-based DAP formulation significantly enhanced ciprofloxacin removal compared with MP-based DAP. CONCLUSIONS For antibiotic paste removal from root canals, citric acid is effective, and HPMC is a preferable vehicle over MP. Overall, HPLC is a valuable method for detecting, removing, and quantifying residual antibiotics in root canals.

Abstract
Background. Periradicular surgery is the last treatment option for teeth with persistent periradicular endodontic lesions. This study aimed to assess the adhesion of fibroblasts to root dentin conditioned with ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), MTAD, and QMix. Methods. Twelve dentin discs were fabricated of 6 human single-rooted teeth. Fibroblasts were isolated from the periodontal ligament (PDL) of a premolar tooth. The teeth were healthy and freshly extracted from the socket. The samples were divided into four groups for surface conditioning with (I) EDTA, (II) MTAD, (III) QMix, and the control group. Fibroblasts were cultured on conditioned dentin discs at 37°C, 95% air, and 5% CO2 for 4 hours and then rinsed with PBS three times to eliminate unattached cells from the surface. The mean counts of attached cells were calculated using a Neubauer chamber. Also, the attachment of fibroblasts was evaluated using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Results. The mean counts of fibroblasts attached to root dentin in EDTA, QMix, MTAD, and control groups were 303±46, 243±41, 213±33, and 347±38, respectively. No significant difference was noted in the number of fibroblasts attached between MTAD, EDTA, and QMix and the control group (P>0.05). Under SEM, the fibroblasts were flat and spindle-shaped, with cytoplasmic processes covering the untreated dentin surface. In the experimental groups, the cells were rounder with fewer processes. All the three groups showed weaker adhesion to dentin compared to the control (untreated dentin) group. Conclusion. Under the limitations of this study, it was concluded that treating the dentin surface with EDTA, MTAD, or QMIX might not be an effective way to improve the adhesion of human PDL fibroblasts.

Int Endod J 2022; 55:579-612. [PMID: 35305029 DOI: 10.1111/iej.13728] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/14/2021] [Revised: 03/11/2022] [Accepted: 03/12/2022] [Indexed: 11/28/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The effects of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) on regenerative endodontic procedures (REPs) are controversial, because, despite releasing growth factors from dentine, some studies show negative effects on cell behaviour. OBJECTIVES To investigate the influence of the use of EDTA in REP on the growth factors' release, cell behaviour, and tissue regeneration. METHODS A systematic search was conducted (PubMed/Medline, Scopus, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, Embase, OpenGrey, and reference lists) up to February 2021. Only in vivo and in vitro studies evaluating the effects of EDTA on the biological factors of dentine, pulp/periapical tissues, and cell behaviour were eligible. Studies without a control group or available full text were excluded. The growth factors' release was the primary outcome. Risk of bias in the in vitro and in vivo studies was performed according to Joanna Briggs Institute's Checklist and SYRCLE's RoB tool, respectively. RESULTS Of the 1848 articles retrieved, 36 were selected. Among these, 32 were in vitro, three animal studies, and one with both models. The EDTA concentrations ranged from 3%-15%, at different times. Regarding growth factors' release (17 studies), 15 studies found significant transforming growth factor (TGF)-β release after dentine conditioning with EDTA, and most found no influence on vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) release. Regarding cell behaviour (26 studies), eight studies showed no influence of EDTA-treated dentine on cell viability; whereas, five, nine, and six studies showed higher cell migration, adhesion, and differentiation, respectively. No influence of EDTA conditioning was observed in animal studies. In vitro studies had a low risk of bias, whereas animal studies had high risk of bias. Meta-analysis was unfeasible. DISCUSSION This review found that EDTA increased TGF-β release and improved cell activity. However, well-designed histological analyses using immature teeth models are needed. CONCLUSIONS High quality in vitro evidence suggests that EDTA-treated dentine positively influences TGF-β release, cell migration, attachment, and differentiation; further research to evaluate its influence on tissue regeneration is necessary due to low methodological quality of the animal studies.

Srisuwan T, Wattanapakkavong K. Direct effect of transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGF-β1) on human apical papilla cell proliferation and mineralisation. AUST ENDOD J 2021; 48:322-330. [PMID: 34596309 DOI: 10.1111/aej.12572] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/25/2021] [Revised: 08/27/2021] [Accepted: 09/19/2021] [Indexed: 01/30/2023]
Abstract
Firstly, this study investigated the direct effect of Transforming Growth Factor-beta 1 at 10, 5, 2.5 and 1.25 ng mL-1 on human apical papilla cell proliferation and mineralisation. Cell proliferation was examined at 0, 2, 4, 6, 24, 48, 72, 96 and 120 h using Alamar BlueTM assay. Cell mineralisation was examined at day 21 with a quantitative Alizarin Red S staining. Secondly, the study aimed to estimate the amount of Transforming Growth Factor-beta 1 (TGF-β1) released from the dentin after root canal irrigation. The solution collected from a root canal after rinsing with various protocols (normal saline solution, ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid or chlorhexidine) was analysed with an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Data were statistically analysed using a one-way analysis of variance. The results, from the first part, revealed cell proliferation reduction in all experimental groups presented with TGF-β1. The higher concentration generated more deteriorating effects. Cell mineralisation was highest in a group with TGF-β1 at 1.25 ng mL-1 (P < 0.05). For the growth factor released from dentin, the highest amount was detected only when ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid was associated with the irrigation (P < 0.05). In summary, the direct effects of TGF-β1 on cell proliferation and differentiation were diverse, depending on concentration. The release of TGF-β1 from root dentin can be achieved after rinsing with ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid.

Abstract
The purposes of this study were (1) to investigate the direct effect of an Er,Cr:YSGG laser on human apical papilla cell (APC) proliferation and mineralization and (2) to examine the effect of Er,Cr:YSGG laser, when applied to an ex vivo immature tooth model, on APC attachment. An Er,Cr:YSGG laser at various power outputs (0.1, 0.5, and 1 W) was used at different positions (2, 5, or 8 mm from the cells) to irradiate cultured APCs. APC proliferation and mineralization were assessed at various intervals. For the cell attachment evaluation, ex vivo tooth models containing dentin samples were irrigated with either EDTA or normal saline solution (NSS) and supplemented with laser activation. Fibronectin-positive-staining cells were counted and analyzed. The number of APCs was significantly greater when power outputs of 0.1 W and 0.5 W were used than when 1 W was used (P < 0.05). The close contact of laser application, at 2 and 5 mm, exerted a negative effect on cell proliferation at 24 and 48 h. The application at 8 mm did not show the deterioration effect. APC mineralization was reduced after laser irradiation, regardless of the power and the tip positioning, at 21 days. APC attachment in all laser-activated groups was significantly greater than in the groups without laser. The use of Er,Cr:YSGG laser significantly promoted APC attachment on the root canal dentin.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of different concentrations of NaOCl with and without passive ultrasonic irrigation (PUI) on mechanical properties of human dentin for applications in regenerative endodontics (RE). Sixty single-rooted teeth were sectioned into 2 halves (n = 120). Dentin bars were produced from one half for flexural strength and the other half was used for microhardness. Specimens were randomly assigned into 10 groups: G1 and G2 (control): distilled water for 30 and 60 min, respectively; G3: 1.5%NaOCl for 30 min; G4:1.5%NaOCl for 60 min; G5: 1.5%NaOCl + PUI for 30 min; G6: 1.5%NaOCl + PUI for 60 min; G7: 5.25%NaOCl for 30 min; G8: 5.25%NaOCl for 60 min; G9: 5.25%NaOCl + PUI for 30 min; G10: 5.25%NaOCl + PUI for 60 min. An increase in NaOCl concentration showed highly significant reduction in mechanical properties. There was no significant difference between 1.5% NaOCl and control group except for specimens treated with PUI for 60 min. NaOCl in concentrations recommended for RE did not have a significant effect on mechanical properties of dentin. However, PUI with increased irrigation time might have an effect even with low NaOCl concentration.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate the direct effects of cold atmospheric pressure plasma jet on cell proliferation and mineralization on human apical papilla cells and its indirect effect on cell attachment on plasma-treated dentin. MATERIALS AND METHODS Plasma was directly applied to cell culture for various durations. Cell proliferation was evaluated using AlamarBlue® assay. Mineralization was assessed using Alizarin Red S staining after 14 and 21 days. The cell attachment to plasma-treated dentin surface was evaluated using an ex vivo immature tooth model, and the protocols varied based on root canal irrigants (NSS or 17% EDTA), the durations of plasma application (0, 30, or 60 s), and the different positions of the plasma needle (coronal or middle). The attached cells were visualized using the immunofluorescence staining and the positive-staining cells were counted. RESULTS There was no difference in the cell proliferation between the untreated and plasma-treated cells. However, the plasma-treated cells tended to have lower levels of calcium deposition, especially after the 60-s plasma application (p < 0.05). Finally, significantly greater numbers of attached cells were shown when NSS was combined with plasma treatment when compared to the untreated cells (p < 0.05), whereas no difference was observed when EDTA was used as the irrigant. CONCLUSIONS Plasma might disturb the mineralization of the cells. Interestingly, the dentin conditioning process using a plasma jet with NSS irrigation may enhance cell attachment. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Cold atmospheric pressure plasma jet may be an alternative treatment in regenerative endodontic procedures in order to improve cell attachment in the root canal system.

Abstract
Regenerative endodontics is a biologically based treatment designed for immature permanent teeth with necrotic pulp to replace dentin and root structures, as well as dental pulp cells. This procedure has become a part of novel modality in endodontics therapeutic manner, and it is considered as an alternative to apexification. In the last decade, numerous case reports, which describe this procedure, have been published. This therapeutic approach succeeded due to its lower financial cost and ease of performance. Although the clinical protocol of this procedure is not standardized and the effects of irrigants and medicaments on dental stem cells fate remain somewhat ambiguous, however when successful, it is an improvement of endodontics treatment protocols which leads to continued root development, increased dentinal wall thickness, and apical closure of immature teeth. To ensure a successful regenerative procedure, it is essential to investigate the appropriate disinfection protocols and the use of biocompatible molecules in order to control the release of growth factors and the differentiation of stem cells. This is the first review in the literature to summarize the present knowledge regarding the effect of intracanal irrigants and medicaments on the dental derived stem cells fate in regenerative endodontic procedures.
