Sažetak
Aim The aim of this study was to investigate the cytotoxicity of two different bioactive root canal sealers: one based on mineral trioxide aggregate, MTA Fillapex (Angelus, Solucoes Odontologicas, Londrina, PR, Brazil), and the other based on bioceramics, Endosequence BC Sealer (Brasseler, Savannah, Georgia, USA), in culture of mouse L929 fibroblasts. Methodology Mouse (L929) fibroblasts, obtained from subcutaneous connective tissue of mouse line C3Hf, were cultivated in plastic culture flasks in an incubator at temperature of 37°C, with 5% CO2 and 90% of humidity. Freshly mixed materials (0.1 g), Endosequence BC Sealer and MTA Fillapex, were placed on sterile teflon discs, 6 mm in diameter. Teflon discs with the materials as well as empty discs, serving as a control group, were placed in wells of 12-well plate. After incubation time of 1, 6, 20 and 24 h, the teflon discs were removed from the wells and the number of viable cells was determined using trypan blue in Neubaer chamber. Mann– Whitney U test was used for statistical analysis and the level of significance was set at 5%. Results There was a significant difference in the number of viable cells between the Endosequence BC Sealer and MTA Fillapex (P ≤ 0.05). In comparison to the control group, MTA Fillapex had significantly less viable cells for all incubation periods (P ≤ 0.05), while Endosequence BC sealer had significantly less viable cells from after 6, 20 and 24 hours of incubation (P ≤ 0.05). MTA Fillapex exhibited significantly less viable cells in comparison to Endosequence BC sealer after the first hour and after 20-h hours of incubation (P ≤ 0.05), while for the other incubation periods there was no significant difference (P ≥ 0.05). Conclusions MTA Fillapex and Endosequence BC sealer were both cytotoxic in cultures of mouse L929 fibroblasts.
