description | Introduction: Root canal sealers with good sealing ability
and antimicrobial activity are desired to entomb the surviving
microorganisms.
Aim: Aim of the present study is to evaluate the antimicrobial
effect of different sealers mixed with antibiotics.
Materials and Methods: Sixty extracted premolars were taken
and were cut coronally & apically such that 7mm of tooth
specimen was prepared. They were sterilized by autoclaving,
inoculated with E.faecalis and incubated for three weeks. The
specimens were divided into six groups of 10 each. Group 1 –
ZnOE, Group 2 – ZnOE +TAM, Group 3 – Apexit Plus, Group 4 –
Apexit Plus +TAM, Group 5 – AH Plus, Group 6 – AH Plus + TAM.
Bacterial growth in the each specimen was calculated before &
after sealer application and noted as initial & final colony count.
Antimicrobial effect of each sealer was measured by calculating
the Percentage Reduction in Colony Count (%RCC). One way
analysis of variance and post hoc tests were used for statistical
analysis.
Results: ZnOE + TAM group showed maximum antibacterial
effect among the sealers tested and AH Plus sealer showed
least antimicrobial effect.
Conclusion: When the sealers were mixed with triple antibiotic
mixture the antimicrobial effect was increased significantly. |
