Aetiology, classification and pathogenesis
of pulp and periapical disease
Dental pulp is a richly vascularized and innervated tissue, enclosed by
surrounding tissues that are incapable of expanding, such as dentin. It
has terminal blood flow and small-gauge circulatory access the periapex.
All of these characteristics severely constrain the defensive capacity of
the pulp tissue when faced with the different aggressions it may be
subjected to. Pulp tissue can also be affected by a retrograde infection,
arising from the secondary canaliculi, from the periodontal ligament or
from the apex during the course of periodontitis. Due to the fact that
periapical disease is almost inevitably preceded by pulp disease, we shall
begin by describing the causes of pulp disease and will then proceed to a
discussion of the causes of periapical disease. The course of illness and
classification of these pathological entities will depend on the aetiology
involved. We will analyse pulp necrosis and pulp degeneration that are
capable of triggering reversible apical periodontitis or irreversible apical
periodontitis.

The success of endodontic therapy:
healing and functionality.
Friedman S, Mor C.
University of Toronto Faculty of Dentistry, Canada.
Based on selected follow-up studies that offer the best evidence, the chance of
teeth
without apical periodontitis to remain free of disease
after initial treatment or orthograde retreatment is
92 percent to 98
percent. The chance of teeth with apical periodontitis to
completely heal after initial treatment or retreatment is 74 percent to
86 percent, and their chance to be functional over time is 91
percent to 97 percent. Thus there does not appear to be a systematic
difference in outcome between initial treatment and orthograde retreatment.
is less consistent
The outcome of apical surgery
than
that of the nonsurgical treatment. The chance of teeth with apical periodontitis
to completely heal after apical surgery is 37 percent
to 85 percent, with a weighted average of approximately 70 percent.
However, even with the lower chance of complete healing, the chance for the
teeth to be functional over time is 86 percent to 92 percent.
Case #3 Factoids
Chief complaint
• masticatory sensitivity
• RCT done prior – time indeterminate
• apical periodontitis in evidence
• 2 visits – interim calcium hydroxide procedure
• NSAIDS, analgesics NO antibiotics prescribed
• irrigation routine – citric acid and CHX
• CLP considerations

antibacterial effectiveness of intracanal medicaments. Law A, Messer H.

Melbourne, Australia.
The authors reviewed the literature evaluating the antibacterial effectiveness of
intracanal medicaments used in the management of apical periodontitis. A
PICO (problem, intervention, comparison, outcome) strategy was developed to
identify studies dealing with calcium hydroxide, phenolic derivatives, iodinepotassium iodide, chlorhexidine, and formocresol. The final
inclusion/exclusion criteria eliminated all papers except five that evaluated
calcium hydroxide. The total sample size in the included studies was 164 teeth.
Microbiologic sampling was performed before endodontic treatment (S1), after
instrumentation and irrigation (S2), and after intracanal medication (S3). At S2,
62% of canals were positive. After medication, 27% still showed detectable
growth. Of cultures that were positive at S2, 45% were still positive at S3. Most
studies did not address issues of culture reversals or false positive and false
negative cultures. The main component of antibacterial
action appears to be associated with instrumentation
and irrigation, although canals cannot be reliably
rendered bacteria free. Calcium hydroxide remains
the best medicament available to reduce residual
microbial flora further.

chlorhexidine- and calcium hydroxide-containing medicaments against Enterococcus
faecalis in vitro. Basrani B, Tjaderhane L, Santos JM, Pascon E, Grad H, Lawrence HP,
Friedman S. Dalhousie University, Endodonic Division, Department of Dental Clinical
Sciences, Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada.
OBJECTIVE: We sought to assess the efficacy of chlorhexidine (CHX) and calcium
hydroxide, Ca(OH)(2), against Enterococcus faecalis in vitro. STUDY DESIGN: The effect
of CHX (0.2% and 2% in gel or solution) and Ca(OH)(2) (alone or with 0.2% CHX gel) was
evaluated by using the agar diffusion test and an in vitro human root inoculation method,
to measure zone of inhibition or bacterial growth with optical density analysis,
respectively. For optical density analysis, samples from infected root canals were
collected after 7 days of medication and were cultured for 24 hours in brain-heart infusion
to detect viable bacteria. RESULTS: In the agar diffusion test, CHX was effective
against E faecalis in a concentration-dependent fashion, but
Ca(OH)(2) alone had no effect. In the root canal inoculation test,
CHX was significantly more effective against E faecalis than
Ca(OH)(2) was (P < .05), but there were no significant differences
between the modes of medication or concentrations of CHX.
CONCLUSIONS: CHX is effective against E faecalis in vitro. Further
in vivo studies are needed to confirm the value of CHX in clinical
treatment.
