ERAZO PAREDES, Carlos Humberto; RUIZ RAMIREZ, Eliberto; BARREDA TORRES, Oscar Alberto e AGUIRRE SIANCAS, Elías Ernesto. Osteoinductive effect of Mineral Trioxide Aggregate versus Portland Cement Type I on mandibular bone lesions. Odontología Vital [online]. 2018, n.28, pp.7-14. ISSN 1659-0775.
Introduction:
An experimental study was carried out to determine the osteoinductive effect of Mineral Trioxide Aggregate (MTA) versus Portland Cement type I on mandibular bone lesions.
Methodology:
Twelve 3-month-old male New Zealand rabbits were divided into 4 equal groups. All rabbits were anesthetized using Pentobarbital. An incision of the mandibular skin was performed to expose the bone on which 3 cavities of 2mm each one were made.
In one cavity MTA was placed, in another Portland Cement type I and the third remained empty. The experimental groups were sacrificed at the 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th respective weeks and evaluated histologically by counting osteocytes and osteoblasts.
Results:
Both MTA and Portland cement have the same osteoinductive capacity in the 1st, 2nd and 3rd week (0.05 <p). Nonetheless, in the 4th week the MTA had greater osteoinductive capacity by stimulating a greater number of osteoblasts than the Portland Cement (p = 0.024).
Conclusions:
The MTA and Portland cement type I showed a similar osteoinductive effect during the first 3 weeks of evaluation, however, MTA had the greatest osteoinductive effect during the fourth week of evaluation.
