A Comparative Study on Root Canal Repair Materials: A Cytocompatibility Assessment in L929 and MG63 Cells

الملخص EN

Cytocompatibility of repair materials plays a significant role in the success of root canal repair.

We conducted a comparative study on the cytocompatibility among iRoot BP Plus, iRoot FS, ProRoot MTA, and Super-EBA in L929 cells and MG63 cells.

The results revealed that iRoot FS was able to completely solidify within 1 hour.

iRoot BP Plus required 7-day incubation, which was much longer than expected (2 hours), to completely set.

ProRoot MTA and Super-EBA exhibited a similar setting duration of 12 hours.

All the materials except Super-EBA possessed negligible in vitro cytotoxicity.

iRoot FS had the best cell adhesion capacity in both L929 and MG63 cells.

With rapid setting, negligible cytotoxicity, and enhanced cell adhesion capacity, iRoot FS demonstrated great potential in clinical applications.

Future work should focus on longer-term in vitro cytocompatibility and an in vivo assessment.
