RESUMO
This study compared the physicochemical properties and interfacial adaptation to canal walls of Endo-CPM-Sealer, Sealapex and Activ GP with the well-established AH Plus sealer. The following analyses were performed: radiopacity, pH variation and solubility using samples of each material and scanning electron microscopy of root-filled bovine incisors to evaluate the interfacial adaptation. Data were analyzed by the parametric and no-parametric tests (α=0.05). All materials were in accordance with the ANSI/ADA requirements for radiopacity. Endo-CPM-Sealer presented the lowest radiopacity values and AH Plus was the most radiopaque sealer (p=0.0001). Except for ActiV GP, which was acidic, all other sealers had basic chemical nature and released hydroxyl ions. Regarding solubility, all materials met the ANSI/ADA recommendations, with no statistically significant difference between the sealers (p=0.0834). AH Plus presented the best adaptation to canal walls in the middle (p=0.0023) and apical (p=0.0012) thirds, while the sealers Activ GP and Endo-CPM-Sealer had poor adaptation to the canal walls. All sealers, except for ActiV GP, were alkaline and all of them fulfilled the ANSI/ADA requirements for radiopacity and solubility. Regarding the interfacial adaptation, AH Plus was superior to the others considering the adaptation to the bovine root canal walls.

Este estudo comparou as propriedades físico-químicas e a adaptação interfacial às paredes do canal dos cimentos Endo-CPM-Sealer, Sealapex e Activ GP com o bem estabelecido cimento AH Plus. As seguintes análises foram realizadas: radiopacidade, variação de pH e de solubilidade utilizando amostras de cada material, e microscopia eletrônica de varredura utilizando incisivos bovinos obturados para avaliar a adaptação interfacial. Os dados foram analisados utilizando testes paramétricos e não-paramétricos (α=0,05). Todos os materiais estavam de acordo com os requerimentos da ANSI/ADA para radiopacidade, sendo que o Endo-CPM-Sealer apresentou os menores valores de radiopacidade e o AH Plus foi o cimento mais radiopaco (p=0,0001). Exceto o Activ GP, que foi ácido, todos os outros cimentos apresentaram natureza química básica e liberaram íons hidroxila. Com relação à solubilidade, todos os materiais estavam de acordo com as recomendações da ANSI /ADA, sem diferença significante entre os cimentos (p=0,0834). O AH Plus apresentou a melhor adaptação às paredes do canal nos terços médio (p=0,0023) e apical (p=0,0012), enquanto que os cimentos Activ GP e Endo-CPM-Sealer apresentaram uma pobre adaptação às paredes do canal. Em conclusão, todos os cimentos, exceto o Activ GP, foram alcalinos e todos preencheram os requerimentos da ANSI/ADA para radiopacidade e solubilidade. Com relação à adaptação interfacial, o AH Plus foi superior aos demais para adaptação às paredes do canal radicular de incisivos bovinos.

OBJECTIVE: This study evaluated the response of apical and periapical tissues of dogs' teeth with pulp vitality after root canal filling with the endodontic sealers Sealapex Xpress and Real Seal XT. METHODS: Thirty-eight root canals with vital pulp from dogs' premolars were used. After instrumentation, the canals were filled with Sealapex Xpress and gutta-percha (group SX/GP, n = 16) or Real Seal XT and Resilon cones (group RS/R, n = 22). The animals were killed after 90 days, and the teeth with surrounding tissues were subjected to histotechnical processing. Hematoxylin-eosin-stained sections were examined by conventional light microscopy for a quantitative histopathologic analysis (sealing of apical opening by newly formed mineralized tissue [biological sealing], inflammatory cell infiltrate, root and bone tissue resorption), according to a scoring system. The subsequent sections were evaluated by immunohistochemistry for identification of mineralization markers (osteopontin, alkaline phosphatase, and RUNX2). Data were analyzed by nonparametric Mann-Whitney U test (α = 0.05). RESULTS: Complete biological sealing was observed in 50% and 22.7% of the specimens of groups SX/GP and RS/R, respectively. Partial biological sealing was observed in 25% and 54.6% and absence of sealing in 25% and 22.7% of the specimens of groups SX/GP and RS/R, respectively. There were no significant differences (P > .05) between the groups for the scores attributed to the histopathologic parameters. Positive staining for osteopontin, alkaline phosphatase, and RUNX2 was observed in both groups, especially in the periodontal ligament. CONCLUSIONS: Sealapex Xpress and RealSeal XT feature tissue compatibility in vivo and allow for sealing of apical opening by deposition of mineralized tissue.
