Tissue inflammatory response to implantation of calcium hydroxide and iodoform in the back of rats

Abstract: Purpose: This study evaluated the inflammatory reaction caused by the implantation of iodoform and calcium hydroxide in the back of rats. These drugs may be used as intracanal dressings to eliminate residual bacteria of the root canal system. Methods: Twenty albinic rats (Rattus norvegicus, var Wistar) were divided into four groups: control group 1 (CG1) had normal skin; control group 2 (CG2) had wounded tissue without drugs; in groups 3 and 4, iodoform (IG) and calcium hydroxide (CHG) were inserted into the w… Show more

“…Formulations using calcium hydroxide associated with iodoform have demonstrated antimicrobial efficacy against microbial strains present in periapical lesions [13,15]. Based on this antimicrobial feature, previous authors proposed the use of iodoform and carbowax (a polyethylene glycol with a higher molecular mass, as inert vehicle), without calcium hydroxide, as an intracanal dressing [16,17]. This association was later commercially available on the market in early 2022, regulated by the Brazilian National Health Surveillance Agency (Register No 80013980041) [18] with the manufacturer indication of filling entire root canal and extrusion to periapical tissue [19].…”

“…When in contact with the exposed pulp tissue the CH induces a chemical injury caused by hydroxyl ions, causing an initial superficial necrosis [43]. This necrosis causes mild irritation and stimulates the pulp to repair, forming a dentin bridge of reparative dentin as result of cell differentiation, extracellular matrix secretion and subsequent mineralization by saturation of the zone with calcium ions [42,[44][45][46].…”
