Abstract |
: |
The purpose of this study was to compare pulpal and periapical tissue reactions to electrosurgery versus
formocresol pulpotomy techniques in the primary teeth of dogs. The study was conducted on 33 primary
teeth of three mongrel dogs between the ages of one to three months. Each dog had three teeth treated by
Formocresol Pulpotomy with Mechanical Coronal Pulp Removal (FC), three teeth treated by Electrosurgery
Pulpotomy with Mechanical Coronal Pulp Removal (ES/MCPR), three teeth treated by Electrosurgery
Pulpotomy with Electrosurgical Coronal Pulp Removal (ES/ECPR), and two teeth serving as
untreated Controls. Dogs one, two and three were sacrificed performing the pulpotomies at two, four and
six weeks, respectively. The pulp, periapical tissue and after surrounding bone were submitted to histological
examination and the histological reaction was recorded. The results were fourteen out of 18 unfavorable
and zero out of three favorable histological reactions occurred in the FC treated teeth. Six out of 18
unfavorable and one out of three favorable histological reactions occurred in the ES/MCPR treated teeth.
Nine out of 18 unfavorable and two out of three favorable histological reactions occurred in the ES/ECPR
treated teeth. One out of 18 unfavorable and zero out of three favorable histological reactions occurred in
the untreated Control teeth. The conclusion of this study is that of the three experimental groups, the teeth
treated by Electrosurgery Pulpotomy with either Mechanical or Electrosurgical Coronal Pulp Removal
exhibited less histopathological reaction than the teeth treated by Formocresol Pulpotomy. |
