Effect of phytic acid, ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid, and chitosan solutions on microhardness of the human radicular dentin

Abstract: Aim:The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of phytic acid, ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), and chitosan solutions on the microhardness of human radicular dentin.Materials and Methods:Thirty dentin specimens were randomly divided into three groups of 10 specimens each according to the irrigant used: G1 — 1% phytic acid, G2 — 17% EDTA, and G3 — 0.2% chitosan. A standardized volume of each chelating solution was used for 3 min. Dentin microhardness was measured before and after application a… Show more

“…The results are in accordance with Nikhil et al (33) who reported that 0.2% chitosan caused less reduction in dentin microhardness than 17%EDTA. On the other hand, the results are in disagreement with those of Pimenta et al (32) who found that 0.2% chitosan equally effective to 15% EDTA and 10% citric acid in microhardness reduction.…”

“…Pimenta et al (32) revealed that 0.2% chitosan reduced root dentin microhardness similarly to 15% EDTA and 10% citric acid solutions. Moreover, Nikhil et al (33) reported that 0.2% chitosan caused less reduction in dentin microhardness than EDTA.…”

“…In the present study, the coronal segments had significantly lower dentin microhardness in comparison with the middle and the apical segments in all groups. This finding agrees with several studies (14,24,36). This may be attributed to the histological pattern of the root canal dentin and relative nature of dentin in the apical region as Carrigan et al (21) showed that tubule density decreased from cervical to apical dentin and Pashley et al (22) reported that there was an inverse correlation between dentine microhardness and tubular density.…”

“…Finally, it is recommended that chelators as EDTA can be used in low concentrations (3,29) or shorter chelating time (3,26) and NaOCl solutions can be used in low concentrations (3,28). A final flush of NaOCL after EDTA must be considered (3,17,33) which could be replaced by CHX (2,3) or other new irrigant solutions (3,31,36,38,39). As well as remineralizing agent may be used before bonding procedures for promoting remineralization and improving the microhardness of eroded root dentin (19,40).…”

“…Chitosan showed a significant increase in the resistance to degradation of collagenase after dentin ocolagene is coated with nanoparticles of chitosan (CSnp). It also showed increase the microhardness of the root dentin layer [37], in addition, the chitosan modified with methacrylate is proposed as a component of an etch-and-rinse adhesive, a system to improve the durability of dental restorations [38]. In addition, the use of chitosan/riboflavin to modify collagen dentine, with the defined proportions, stabilizes the fibrillar network of collagen enhances resin infiltration and hybrid layer formation [39].…”
