| Summary: | Aim: This research aimed to investigate the differences in the sealing capability of propolis
extracts and Ca(OH)2 on dentin surfaces.
Materials and Methods: Eighteen mandible incisors of Wistar rats were prepared at a
depth of 0.5 mm after which they were randomly divided into 3 groups (n=6) including
control (C), pulp-capped with Ca(OH)2 group (P1), and indirect pulp-capped with propolis
extract group (P2). All the cavities were sealed with glass ionomer restorative cement.
Moreover, the sections of the teeth were obtained after six Wistar Rats from each group
were sacrificed on the second day after treatment. The rats’ incisors were cleaved transversally to the area where Ca(OH)2 and propolis extract bonded with dentin for the SEM
(scanning electron microscope) analysis and examined using microphotographs test with
5000x magnification. All the samples were measured and examined with spectrophotometry
test to determine the bonding distance between Ca(OH)2 and dentin, as well as propolis
extract and dentin. The result from the two tests was analyzed with SPSS using an
independent t-test at p <0.05.
Results: There were significant differences between the calcium hydroxide and propolis
extract groups (p<0.05) based on the results obtained in the form of spectrums chemical
functional groups of spectrophotometry examination. No new chemical bonding or compound was also observed to have been formed between propolis extract with dentin as well
as calcium hydroxide with dentin.
Conclusion: The adaptation or sealing capability of propolis extract was found to be better
than calcium hydroxide to the dentin surface. |
