초록

One fifth dilution of formocresol is usually used for pulpotomy of primary teeth and emergency pulpotomy of permanent teeth. Recently Depulpin (VoCo., Germany) gains popularity as devitalizing agent during root canal therapy in spite of high concentration of 49% paraformaldehyde. But there are not enough publications about the reaction of dental pulp and periapical tissue caused by Depulpin. Therefore, This study was performed to evaluate the histological changes in pulp and periapical tissue of rat after pulpotomy using formocresol and Depulpin.(omitted)
