“…As a solution to the problem, some calcium hydroxidebased materials that allow photoactivation have appeared in the market [5,6]. The addition of polymerizable methacrylates allowed their physical properties, chemical stability and solubility to be improved [7][8][9], making their clinical use more favorable and practical.…”

Objective: Compare the pH values and calcium ion release of calcium hydroxide-based liner materials before and after light-curing. Material and Methods: The materials evaluated were: hydrox-cal white (HW), hydroxcal dentin (HD), Biocal (BC) and UltraBlend Plus (UB). 120 samples of the liner materials were inserted into a PVC tube (n=15). The samples from HW+A, HD+A, BC+A and UB+A were subjected to photoactivation. The other groups HW+N, HD+N, BC+N and UB+N were only inserted in a glass tube with deionized water. The pH was measured 24 hours and 14 days after the inclusion of the samples with the aid of a pH meter. The calcium release was analyzed with the aid of an atomic absorption spectophotometer at 24h and 14 days. The results were submitted to the Shapiro-Wilk test, followed by ANOVA and Tukey test (p=0.05). Results: In 24h, the groups that were not light cured showed the highest pH values (p<0.05). In 14 days, BC+N and BC+A demonstrated the lowest pH values. The groups that were not light cured also showed higher calcium release values in 24h and 14 days (p<0.05). Conclusion: Photoactivation of calcium hydroxide-based liner materials negatively interferes with calcium ion release, as well as with pH.

In situations where pulp degeneration and carious lesions may coexist, pulp therapy is a regularly employed method. Mineral trioxide aggregate, a material that is now utilized for indirect pulp treatment (IPT), is nontoxic and nonmutagenic. There is proof that the restoration margin can be sealed to manage the caries lesion. In terms of the clinical and radiological outcome, it has been demonstrated that IPT is more effective and secure than direct pulp capping and pulpotomy. The pulp capping treatment’s goal is to protect the pulp from microorganisms as well as from thermal, electrical, chemical, and physical stimulation. There is evidence that suggests targeted caries clearance and composite restoration may stop caries lesions more effectively than full dentin removal. Various pulp capping materials that are available in the market were highlighted in this review, and the discussion of each material was expanded to demonstrate its clinical efficacy. Articles were specifically selected and discussed for the materials used for the IPT in the primary teeth as very few studies have been done so far in relation to this subject. A literature search in various libraries, including PubMed, Cochrane, ResearchGate, Scopus, ScienceDirect, and other libraries, was done for several available materials that have been used for the IPT procedure in primary dentition in the last 20 years.

A bstract Background Pulp capping is a vital dental procedure used to preserve the vitality of teeth affected by deep caries lesions without irreversible pulpitis. The use of modern bioceramic materials has enhanced the predictability of vital pulp therapy (VPT). Aim This study aimed to assess the clinical success of Biodentine, modified NeoPutty mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA), and calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)2) as pulp capping materials for indirect pulp capping in carious primary teeth. Materials and methods Indirect pulp treatment (IPT) was performed on 36 deciduous molars in 36 patients presenting with deep carious lesions. The teeth were randomly assigned to three groups: Biodentine (12 teeth), NeoPutty MTA (12 teeth), and Ca(OH)2 (12 teeth). Patients were monitored at 1, 3, and 6 months post-treatment to evaluate the clinical success of the procedures. Statistical analysis Statistical analysis was conducted using Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) software version 21.0. Pearson's Chi-squared test was employed to compare success and failure rates among Biodentine, MTA, and Ca(OH)2 at three different time intervals (30, 90, and 180 days) and overall success and failure rates regardless of the time intervals. Results In the statistical analysis, different pulp capping materials yielded varying success rates. The NeoPutty MTA group demonstrated a success rate of 91.67%, the Biodentine group 83.33%, and the Ca(OH)2 group 58.33% after 6 months. However, these differences were not statistically significant. Conclusion Indirect pulp treatment with calcium silicate-based materials, such as Biodentine and modified NeoPutty MTA, showed superior results compared to the use of calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)2). Although differences in success rates were observed among the materials, they did not reach statistical significance. How to cite this article Acharya S, Gurunathan D, Assiry AA, et al.
