EFFECTIVITY ANTIBACTERIAL ZINC OXIDE EUGENOL WITH ZINC OXIDE PROPOLIS FOR ENDODONTIC TREATMENT IN PRIMARY TEETH

Antibacterial activity of root canal filling materials for primary teeth: zinc oxide and eugenol cement, Calen paste thickened with zinc oxide, Sealapex and EndoREZ.

This study evaluated in vitro the antibacterial activity of 4 root canal filling materials for primary teeth - zinc oxide and eugenol cement (ZOE), Calen paste thickened with zinc oxide (Calen/ZO), Sealapex sealer and EndoREZ sealer - against 5 bacterial strains commonly found in endodontic infections (Kocuria rhizophila, Enterococcus faecalis, Streptococcus mutans, Escherichia coli and Staphyl...

The flow of two zinc oxide-eugenol-based endodontic sealers.

BACKGROUND/AIM Endodontic sealers (ES) for obturation are usually prepared with a slight variation of their components both on purpose or unintentionally. Considering that fact, as well as a frequent use of compaction techniques with the applied force to gutta-percha and ES of 1-3 kg, the aim of this study was to investigate the flow of two zinc-oxide eugenol ES in regard to the applied force a...

Zinc oxide-eugenol paste retained in gingival mucosa after primary teeth pulpectomy.

AIM Long-term follow-up evaluations of pulpectomy in primary teeth have revealed retention of ZOE filling particles in the periapical area even after root resorption. CASE REPORT This paper reports a case of a child submitted to pulpectomy with ZOE paste in primary teeth. After 28 months, the filling particles remained, having migrated to the alveolar bone from the gingival vestibular mucosa ...

Setting Reaction of Zinc Oxide and Eugenol !

Zinc oxide-eugenol mixtures have been used in dentistry for a number of years. The setting mechanism of these mixtures was investigated.
