Abstract
This study investigated the wettability and consistency of various endodontic sealers, both inorganic and organic, and evaluated their sealing ability of root canals using the single-cone obturation technique, with and without ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) treatment. Bovine root canals were endodontically prepared and filled in preparation for the dye penetration test with toluidine blue solution. All sealers exhibited contact angles similar to or lower than dentin and displayed superior consistency. Among the sealers, organic sealers used without EDTA treatment showed reduced dye penetration compared to inorganic sealers. However, some inorganic and organic sealers showed dye penetration in the sealer and dentin of root canals subjected to EDTA treatment. In conclusion, the single-cone obturation technique, combined with these endodontic sealers, achieved close contact with root canal dentin due to their wettability and consistency. However, the sealing ability of certain sealers was influenced by EDTA treatment.

Cytotoxicity and Inflammatory Mediators Release by Macrophages Exposed to Real Seal XT and Sealapex Xpress. Braz Dent J 2021; 32:48-52. [PMID: 33914002 DOI: 10.1590/0103-6440202103330] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/13/2020] [Accepted: 05/29/2020] [Indexed: 11/22/2022] Open
Abstract
This study evaluated the cytotoxicity of Sealapex Xpress and Real Seal XT and their effect on macrophage activation. J774.1 macrophages were incubated with Sealapex Xpress and Seal Real XT (0.1, 1.0, and 10 mg/mL) for 24 and 48 h. Cell viability was assessed by the MTT assay and macrophage activation was measured by pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokine production using ELISA. Data were analyzed using one-way ANOVA and Tukey's post-test (a=0.05). Cell viability was not affected with 0.1 or 1.0 mg/mL of extracts of Sealapex Xpress and Real Seal XT at 24 and 48 h (p>0.05), but was significantly lower when cells were exposed to 10 mg/mL of both sealers (p<0.05). Sealapex Xpress inhibited the production of TNF-a, whereas Real Seal XT induced TNF-a secretion at 24 h (p<0.05). IL-6 production was induced by Real Seal XT, but not by Sealapex Xpress (p<0.05). Real Seal XT and Sealapex Xpress induced the secretion of anti-inflammatory IL-10. IL-4 was not detected in any group. In conclusion, both sealers had low toxicity but differentially activated macrophages. Macrophage activation by Sealapex Xpress was characterized by inhibition of TNF-a and induction of IL-10, whereas Real Seal XT induced IL-6 solely.

Abstract
This study aimed to evaluate, in vitro and in vivo, the biocompatibility of experimental methacrylate-based endodontic sealers containing α-tricalcium phosphate (α-TCP) or nanostructured hydroxyapatite (HAp). Experimental methacrylate-based dual-cure sealers with the addition of α-TCP or HAp, at 10%wt were formulated and compared to AH Plus (AHP). Cell viability was assessed by 3-(4,5-dimethyl-thiazoyl)-2,5-diphenyl-tetrazolium bromide (MTT), and sulforhodamine B (SRB). Sealers were implanted in rats' subcutaneous tissue and histologically evaluated. Bioactivity was assessed by alkaline phosphatase enzyme activity (ALP) and Alizarin Red (AR), using apical papillary cells (SCAPs), and by the bone deposition measured in surgical cavities on rats' femur filled with AH Plus or α-TCP. In both viability assays, HAp and AHP sealers were similar, and α-TCP presented lower viability compared to the others at MTT assay (p<0.05). A gradual decrease of the inflammatory response according to the periods was observed and AHP was the only that presented giant cells (7-day period). Collagen fibers condensation increased according to the periods, with no differences among sealers. There was an increase at ALP activity and mineralized nodules deposition according to periods. HAp and α-TCP presented higher values for ALP activity at 5 days and at 5, 10, and 15 days for AR and were different from AHP (p<0.05). α-TCP presented superior values at 10 and 15 days compared to HAp and AHP for AR (p<0.05). At 90 days, α-TCP and control (empty cavity) showed high bone deposition compared to AHP (p<0.05). α-TCP and HAp, in a methacrylate-based sealer, presented biocompatibility and bioactivity, with the potential to be used as endodontic sealers in clinical practice. Further investigations are required to gain information on the physicochemical properties of these sealers formulation before its clinical implementation.

IRANIAN ENDODONTIC JOURNAL 2020; 15:183-187. [PMID: 36703809 PMCID: PMC9709854 DOI: 10.22037/iej.v15i3.29153] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Download PDF] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/13/2019] [Revised: 02/18/2020] [Accepted: 03/01/2020] [Indexed: 01/28/2023]
Abstract
Introduction This study aimed to assess the physical and chemical properties of an experimental endodontic resin sealer (Resil) compared with AH-26 and AH-Plus. Methods and Materials In this in vitro experimental study, dimensional stability (by measurement of length; n=5), pH (using a pH meter; n=5), and antibacterial activity (by agar diffusion test; n=8) of Resil, AH-26 and AH-Plus were evaluated and compared using one-way ANOVA and Tukey's test. Results All three groups showed significant expansion from day 1 to day 30 (P<0.05). The difference in the mean dimensional changes between the AH-Plus and experimental sealer was significant (P=0.020). Two hours after mixing, the pH of experimental sealer (Resil) was significantly lower than that of AH-Plus (P<0.001) and higher than that of AH-26 (P<0.001). Antibacterial activity of the experimental sealer before and after setting was significantly higher than that of the other two sealers (P<0.001). Conclusion The results of this in vitro study showed that the experimental sealer had greater 1 to 30 days dimensional changes than the other two sealers. It had an alkaline pH, and showed superior antibacterial activity compared with AH-26 and AH-Plus. It may be possible to use this sealer in the clinic after animal studies because an epoxy resin based sealer with lower price and more appropriate properties is favorable.
