치수보호용 제재가 성견 치수조직에 미치는 영향에 관한 병리조직학적 연구

A HISTOPATHOLOGICAL STUDY OF PULP TISSUE REACTION TO INTERMEDIATE RESTORATIVE MATERNAL IN YOUNG ADULT DOG'S TEETH

This study was undertaken to evaluate the pulpal responses to the intermediate restorative materials such as Zinc phosphate cement, Polycarboxylate cement, IRM (zinc oxide eugenol cement), Dycal, Life, Cresatin, and Fluoride in caivties which were cut with high speed instrument. 5 dogs were used as experimental animals and devided into 8 groups. The intervals of observaobservation ranged 3 days, 1, 3, 4, 8 weeks after experiment respectively. The specimens were fixed with 10% formalin and decalcified in 5% nitric acid. All slides were stained with hemtoxylin-eosin and examined histopathologically. The results were as follows: 1. In control group, severe vacuolar degeneration and atrophy of odontoblasts were seen in 3 days, hemorrhage and congestion continued until 8 weeks. Necrosis of odontoblastic layer was seen in zinc phosphate cement group and polycarboxylate cement group. 2. In dycal group, vacuolar degeneration and atrophy of odontoblast were not seen. but in Life group, these were seen in 3 days and partially continued until 3 weeks. In 4 weeks, regeneration of odontoblast was occured. 3. In Crcsatin group, there was no pathosis except odontoblastic displacement. In Fluoride group, vacuolar degeneration of odontoblast was seen and soon disappeared. As compared with control group, pathological change of the pulp tissue in experimental group were decreased after amalgam restoration.
